This presidential campaign is like no other.

One candidate is a successful businessman who beat all the odds, plus 16 other Republicans, and became the Republican nominee for President. The other candidate is a lawyer and a lifetime politician, who beat Bernie Sanders and became the first woman Democratic nominee.

The tone of this campaign has been quite intense throughout the primaries, the conventions and the three debates. In many ways, the country has never been more divided.

You have Republican Donald J. Trump, who wants to “Drain the Swamp” of Washington D.C. and rebuild our country.

You have Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton, who wants to continue with the current path we are on of big government being involved in many aspects of our lives.

The media distractions have been unbearable, and arguably quite one-sided in most of their coverage.

No matter who you support, nobody condones distasteful words spoken or irresponsible and potentially criminal actions taken by either candidate - and I think you know what and who I am talking about in each instance!

Putting all this aside, you have a simple choice to make: Trump - who has earned money, power and fame and wants to help our country restabilize and prosper

once again. He wants to cut government waste, repeal and replace the affordable healthcare act, rebuild and properly care for our military, and secure our borders for everyone’s safety.

Clinton - who also has money, power and fame, offers us four more years of what we now have; continuing the affordable healthcare act, big government, big government spending and open borders for a global society.

So...to anyone who is still undecided, I ask you - How? The two choices you have could not be more different!

Don’t allow the onslaught of the mainstream media to confuse you.

Trust your GUT, and go out on November 8th and Vote It!

GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center has received funding from the Long Island Unitarian Universalist Fund at the Long Island Community Foundation to pilot an exciting new initiative entitled Project Access. The goal of this comprehensive research project is to improve access to mental health and addictions care for all those who need it. According to project director Andrew Malekoff, families who are seeking communitybased mental health or substance abuse care for their children are struggling to get it in a timely manner; access delayed is access denied.”

These activities will be executed by a variety of prominent stakeholders who have come together to form the Project Access Planning Committee.

Together with researchers from the LIU-C.W. Post School of Social Work, the Committee will identify the target population for the study and then create two surveys: one for families and one for service providers. The data will be analyzed and a report generated on the findings. The Committee will develop a plan for disseminating the results to the public to increase knowledge as well as to inform advocacy efforts around mental health parity and network adequacy.

Back in the Spotlight By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

This year, I gingerly decided to throw my tap shoes back into the ring by enrolling in my old dance studio’s Adult Tap class, after five years of “retirement.”

There is something about the camaraderie of dancing with old friends – alumni, as we are referred to – that brings back a flood of happy memories of days gone by… days spent on stage in tutus and tiaras, sequins and sparkles, smiling for the audience in the dimly lit auditorium as we performed the routines we had perfected over the last six months.

So, when the opportunity presented itself this September, I decided to give it a go. I have to admit, I wasn’t

sure what to expect after such a long absence. But, to my pleasant surprise, not much has changed.

The old tap shoes still fit, the hardwood floor of the studio shines just as I remembered it, and the steps… well, they’re a work in progress, week by week, as my muscle memory slowly but surely recalls the footwork that at one point had been second nature.

They say that those you spend years enjoying extracurricular activities with become like a second family of sorts over time, and the dance studio is no exception – especially after 20 years of essentially growing up with the same core group of girls.

Fast forward a couple of decades, and some of these

same “girls” are now married with children of their own – a few dancing at the studio as well – or pursuing careers in various fields.

To say “I feel old” would be an understatement; and yet, somehow, once we all enter the studio, those “grown up” problems seem to melt away.

Flash back to the little girl in the pale yellow tutu, arms flailing, feet scurrying in a mad dash to join her class onstage for her very first dance recital…

Where ever did the years go indeed? It’s nice to know that, as our lives continue to move at a frenzied pace day after day, there is still time to step into another mode, lace up the old tap shoes and shuffle our problems away. At least for an hour, anyway.

Teddy Travel

Change of Season By: Alexandra H. Rodrigues

The last days of autumn are close Hardly one finds outside still a rose.

Hills bathe in sun of azure blue skies Fall a magnitude of beauty supplies.

Small patches of rainclouds I see Eager to tease the monotony Still unwilling, moisture to earth to send They pleasingly with the firmament blend.

Third-graders at Martin Avenue Elementary School in the North Bellmore School District may not be able to travel the world this year, but their teddy bears can. The students recently began their Teddy Bears Around the World project, with their friends set to begin their global journeys.

Each student colored a paper teddy bear, and gave it a name and hobbies.

They then completed the teddy bear kit by including a passport and cover letter.

The kits will be given to someone they know who is traveling to another state or country, and that person is asked to mail a postcard to the school.

Over the next several months, the hope is that each teddy bear will be passed along with the recipients sending a postcard and writing their location in the passport.

The letters request that each kit, complete with a “stamped” passport, is mailed back to the school

by June.

Teachers Judy Wakie and Danielle Kalinowski said that the project relates to the third grade social studies curriculum, which focuses on communities.

As a postcard is received, the students learn about that place. The goal is to receive as many postcards as possible from across the world.

“We really don’t know where the bears will end up,” Ms. Kalinowski said.

“It’s a surprise.”

Colorful leaves glide from the trees Form a carpet so birds in winter don’t freeze.

The life span of flora and fauna who can tell All together is part of a magic spell.

Enlightened Lesson Chatterton School students in the Merrick School District learned essential fire safety tips from community firefighters during this year’s annual fire prevention assembly.

Gathered in the allpurpose room, local firefighters educated

K-3 students about the importance of fire detectors, how firefighters extinguish a fire and what do to if there is a fire.

Following the assembly, students asked about fire equipment found in fire trucks, engines and ambulances during their tour of all three vehicles.

The students left the assembly well-informed about fire safety and were encouraged to discuss fire prevention with their families.

Additionally, each class met Sparky the Fire Dog and posed for a picture with him.

In honor of Unity Day on Octobere 19th, students of Levy Lakeside School in the Merrick School District unified to take a stance against bullying by wearing their brightest orange and making new friends during the school’s Mix-It-Up Day. Prior to their lunch periods, students were

assigned a colored Popsicle stick that placed them at one of four tables - blue, green, red and yellow - where they ate lunch with new peers in their grade. On each table was a bag filled with questions created by members of the Respectful, Open-minded, Accepting, Responsible Students Club to help

students become better acquainted with their new friends.

Sponsored by the PTA and the ROARS Club, all grades enjoyed pizza, fresh fruit and rainbow Italian ices while mixing it up and putting an end to bullying by making new friends.

Mepham Pride It was a sea of maroon and grey on October 15th as the Wellington C. Mepham High School Pirates in the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District took on H. Frank Carey High School on homecoming.

After a fierce battle, the Pirates fell to the Seahawks, 36-33. School spirit was infectious as fans cheered and the band, directed by Brian Neiderman, kept the tempo upbeat.

Tim Tracy and Katie Carron were crowned homecoming king and queen during halftime after being paraded around the track in a pirate ship float.

“Homecoming is always a special time at Mepham,” said Principal Michael Harrington. “It’s wonderful to see the community come together to celebrate school pride.”

social worker Theana Cheliotes and the school’s Key Club adviser said the club was inspired to participate in the district’s new initiative to help develop a food pantry at the central administration building.

“This weekend’s Homecoming for Hunger food collection served as a great kick off,” added Cheliotes. “You can say it was a touchdown.”

Healthy Eating Levittown students attending Gardiners Avenue Elementary School in the Levittown School District rocked out to the music of the Brady Rymer Band in celebration of Healthy Snack Day. Sponsored by the PTA, the event was one of two yearly events aimed to teach and reinforce lessons on healthy lifestyle habits.

Prior to the assembly,

physical education teachers Rondi Casey and Christine Paprocky taught a fitness unit, which contained physical activities relating to the five components of fitness including muscular strength, endurance, flexibility, cardio vascular fitness and body fat composition.

“Healthy snacks are the right choice all the time and let you do what

you love,” Casey told the students. “Your body is a machine, and what you put into it is what makes it run.”

In addition to the live music, the PTA also cut up healthy fruits for the students to eat while watching the band perform songs about healthy lifestyles.

Hearty Thanks The North Bellmore School District marked National School Lunch Week by acknowledging the hard work of the more than 20 people who work in its food services department.

School Lunch Week, an initiative of the School Nutrition Association, was held from October 10th14th. This year’s theme was “Show Your Spirit.”

In North Bellmore’s five elementary schools, signs were placed around the cafeterias and serving areas encouraging the students

to thank the staff. Each school has three or four kitchen staff members, including a head chef.

“We just wanted the children to thank a lunch lady,” said Frank Romantich, the director of food services. “They are the unsung heroes behind the scenes in the North Bellmore School District.

They have a very important job in the schools to feed these children.”

Approximately half of the district’s students buy food at school, translating to more than 1,000

17

Val & Sal Honored

lunches served every day.

A typical meal includes five components: a meat, grain, vegetable, fruit and milk or juice.

Lunch menus are set a month at a time, and are made available to students and parents approximately halfway through the preceding month. Among the most popular items are brunch for lunch, which includes pancakes, waffles, egg and sausage sandwiches and French toast sticks, and traditional favorites like pizza and chicken nuggets.

On behalf of the district, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tonie McDonald thanked the board for their hard work and long hours.

“We cannot begin to thank you for everything you do for the students of the district,” she said.

In addition to citations from local representatives, the board of education

Valuable Tips M e a d o w b r o o k Elementary School students in the East Meadow School District learned valuable fire safety tips from local firefighters during the school’s annual fire prevention program on October 14th.

Gathered in the cafeteria,

the firefighters discussed the importance of having working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in their homes, establishing an escape route and creating a designated meeting location with family, as well as assisting firefighters when they arrive to the

scene.

Following the presentation, students were able to examine the equipment on fire trucks and learn about the tools firefighters use to extinguish fires.

During the October 20th public meeting of the Wantagh Board of Education, students, staff and members of the PTA and supporting district organizations honored the trustees for their volunteer service to the district and community.

Board Recognition Week is an annual celebration

sponsored by the New York State School Boards Association, which honors the trustees’ commitment to public education.

Superintendent of Schools Maureen Goldberg explained that Board Recognition Night “celebrates the trustees leadership roles” and is a way to thank the

trustees for their “ongoing commitment to education” and the students of Wantagh.

Board president Anthony Greco thanked the community and students for their support. “We serve for the love of the school district and its fine students,” he said.

Literacy Night Students and their families attended Bellmore School District’s annual Literacy Night at the Charles A. Reinhard Early Childhood Center with fun-filled activities and a PTA book fair for avid readers. This year’s theme was “Fall into Reading” and incorporated a leadership theme, allowing sixthgrade students to take a leadership role by greeting families and assisting with various activities.

Assistant Superintendent

for Instruction Dr. Joanne Dacek explained that the evening’s goal was to promote student leadership as well as literacy. “Not only did Literacy Night promote reading, it brought a community of learners together and allowed the older students to shine.”

There were ample opportunities to celebrate the written word. FLES teacher Señora Lorena Cuttitta read stories aloud in Spanish, while teachers and administrators read

19

Board Honorees

stories aloud and acted out the parts during the Readers’ Theatre.

There was a Star SingA-Long of the district’s character education songs and a station where parents and students could work together to create a family mission statement. Students also created colorful origami star bookmarks and star necklaces and had the opportunity to take a selfie with the district’s new mascot, Stellar.

Inspiring Young Artists object that they wanted, including cornstalks, flowers, vegetables and butterflies.

Ms. Skelly and firstgrade teacher Robin Obey started the garden five years ago to serve as an outdoor classroom. The students and teachers have enjoyed the “garden to table” experience during schoolwide activities such as salad day and stone soup day. This year, rutabagas, turnips, lima beans and garlic are growing in the garden.

“It is a wonderful

educational tool for the students and their teachers because it provides handson learning experiences across curricula areas including science, math, English Language Arts and the visual arts,” said Principal Eileen Speidel.

“The students enjoy an array of activities in the garden such as read alouds, writer’s workshop and drawing in their sketch books. It also gives them an understanding as to where food comes from.”

The junior class at John F. Kennedy High School in the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District hosted a pancake breakfast fundraiser to help a younger member of the community.

Short Stacks for a Tall

Cause was held on October 16th to benefit the family of a 12 year-old Merrick boy fighting a rare form of cancer.

Nearly $1,500 was raised for Jake Lonigro and his family. Jake has an older sibling that attends

Kennedy.

“The whole event and planning for it has been the most rewarding outside of the classroom experience for me,” said social studies teacher Kristy Faulkner.

Taste of Broadway Students interested in participating in Grand Avenue Middle School’s Drama Club in the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District were invited to attend a workshop on October 20th at the school with Broadway performer Leo Ash Evens.

Evens, who was recently in “Shuffle Along,” is also a coach for aspiring performers heading into a performing arts college program. Over the summer, he presented at

a workshop attended by Rebecca Levy, the club’s director.

“After hearing him speak at the event, I knew my students would enjoy and benefit from his insight,” said Levy.

He shared audition tales and advice with the middle school students as they asked questions about how to deal with disappointment and calm nerves, realities for all performers. Some students even performed for Evens and received feedback on

“Any opportunity for our students to work with professionals in the performing industry is a valuable experience,” said Cheryl Fontana, district director of the fine and performing arts.

During the National Forum on Character Education held in Washington, D.C. on October 13th-14th, Character.org, formerly known as the Character Education Partnership, presented the Salk Middle School’s faculty in Levittown with the National School of Character Award and the Best Practice Award.

The National School of Character Award recognized that Salk Middle School demonstrated that character education has had a positive impact on academics, student behavior and school climate.

The R.I.S.E Program, an in-house character education program based on the tenets of respect, stands for respect, integrity,

safety/staying healthy and empathy and has evolved over the past decade.

Assistant Principal Patrick Mulligan, chairman of the school’s R.I.S.E. Committee, explained that prior to receiving the national status, the school was named a New York State School of Character in May 2016.

Mulligan said the program teaches students to embrace each other’s differences and to treat others with kindness.

“The program should not be confused with an anti-bullying program,” he stated. “Instead, it is a program that teaches students the right way to behave and treat others.”

The Best Practice Award recognizes the school’s implementation of the Challenger League, which

consists of secondary-level students from the district’s ADA (autistic) program and others with physical disabilities who compete in athletic competitions against districts with a similar program. Jeff Aiello, Levittown Challenger League coordinator, said the league is not only about the competition, but about the community coming together to support these students.”

Principal John Zampaglione said Character.org is looking to use Salk Middle School’s program to implement into schools across the country.

“We were not looking for the recognition,” he said.

“But this has been such a great honor for all of the faculty and students.”

Fishing on LI During a special presentation by I Fish New York representatives Bob McCormack and Francis McParland, Summit Lane fifth-grade students in Levittown learned about the varieties of fish that lurk within the salt and fresh waters on Long Island.

The program, sponsored by the Department of Environmental Conservation, helped prepare the students for a boat trip on the Yankee III out of Captree State Park.

The students learned the differences between the terms “predator” and “prey” and the fish that

are classified under these categories.

They also learned facts about the large-mouth bass, sunfish, striped sea bass (striper), fluke and sea robin and the lateral line organ that assists in their sensing prey in the open waters.

History Comes Alive An in-house field trip, Journeys Into American Indian Territory, held at Abbey Lane Elementary School in Levittown complemented the information studied in the fourth-grade social studies

curriculum about native peoples.

Presenter Richie Cornacchio discussed the geographical location of the Iroquois, their methods of survival, and the tools utilized for agriculture.

In addition, the students explored Native American artifacts, walked through a replicated longhouse and tried their hands at using a pestle and mortar to grind corn.
