SCOUT SUNDAY HOSTED BY COMMACK UNITED METHODIST CHURCH - Boy Scout Troop 125 Boy Scouts and adult scouting volunteer leaders pose for a photo with Pastor Roslyn Lee and members of the church community following the Scout Sunday service at Commack United Methodist Church (Commack) on February 13th.

Commack United Methodist Church, which sponsors Boy Scout Troop 125, was one of several Matinecock District (BSA)’s Host Churches for the Protestant Faith during the start of National Boy Scout Week. As the Boy Scouts of America celebrate their 112 years of serving youths, local Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops, and Explorers attended and participated in the annual “A Scout is Reverent” recognitions during the Scout Sunday Services at various local Catholic and Protestant Churches and the Jewish Scout Sabbath services at area temples and synagogues during the month of February. Troop 125 Scouts were among other Boy Scout Troops and Cub Scout Packs who participated and helped to lead the services both in person and via zoom at Dix Hills Jewish Center, where Troop 125’s Life Scout Ian Schnitzer assisted Rabbi Ian Silverman in leading the Friday evening 2022 Scout Sabbath services.

This season alone, Matthew has entered three separate individual tournaments and has been named “Most Outstanding Wrestler” in each of them.

Matthew is led by Head Coach Thad Aliberti and Assistant Coach Andrew Marlo, who happens to be his parent. Assistant coach Marlo shared “For the other coaches to bestow an honor like that on Matthew was beyond my expectation and is a special honor for our program at Northport.

It validates what we strive for: winning the right way.”

“As a parent and coach, I truly feel blessed to have

had the opportunity to coach my sons and all of the other great student athletes at Northport over the past three seasons. We are doing special things here in Northport,” he added.

As a sophomore, Matthew has two more years to continue honing his talents and perfecting his skills. He will head to the state tournament in Albany on Feb. 25 and 26.

The Northport Middle School National Junior Honor Society recently organized a DVD drive for the residents at the Northport VA. Due to the ongoing pandemic, patients are not able to socialize much. When the honor society advisers Cheryl Gavin and Christine Carroll heard that residents had been given DVD players for their rooms but didn’t have many DVDs, they went into action.

The members of the

Northport Middle School community donated more than 300 DVDs to the drive. National Junior Honor Society students organized and boxed all of the DVDs and loaded them into cars. The recreational therapist created a library for the residents to borrow DVDs for their viewing pleasure.

Supporting community service and selflessly doing for others is one of the messages the advisers hope to deliver to their members

each year.

“The students enjoyed putting together the DVDs and are excited to know that they have now provided a source of enjoyment for the residents who are unable to get out and about due to COVID restrictions,’ shared adviser Cheryl Gavin.

Th National Junior Honor Society has 75 student members; however, DVDs were donated by students, staff and families of the entire school.

John Glenn’s AP Students Score In Top 10% Statewide

Silas Wood Great Kindness Challenge Program

SUFFOLK ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 2, 2022 - MARCH 15, 2022 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

Suffolk County Legislator Tom Donnelly (D-Deer Park) joined the students and staff at Silas Wood Sixth Grade Center in Huntington Station for their Great Kindness Challenge Program.

The Great Kindness Challenge at Silas Wood was kicked off with a “Cultivate Kindness” assembly presentation

by Richard Specht of the ReesSpecht Life foundation that relayed to students the importance of kindness and respect. Legislator Donnelly also visited some of the classrooms with In a recent report released by the New York State Education Department, Elwood John H. Glenn High School scored in the top 10% statewide in student achievement on Advanced Placement college-level coursework and exams. Long Island’s school districts rank No. 1 statewide and accounted for nearly half of all districts scoring in the top 10% in the AP’s report, sponsored by the College Board.

“First and foremost, I’m very proud of our students and staff for this wonderful distinction,” Principal Carisa Burzynski said.

“It is a testament to their hard work, dedication and perseverance, despite the challenges of the pandemic.”

“Elwood’s students continue to persevere, achieve and impress,” said Superintendent Dr. Kenneth Bossert. “Kudos and appreciation not only to the members of our faculty who instruct APlevel coursework, but also to every faculty, staff and administrative team member who helps them prepare for the challenges the coursework brings along the way.”

“The AP program is one of the most worthwhile

Principal Stephen Toto and engaged in conversations with students about tolerance and acceptance, which they all agreed is the basis to kindness.

“I would like to thank Silas Wood Sixth Grade Center Principal Stephen Toto for inviting me to observe this unique and important event and to Mr. Specht for his wonderful presentation,” said Legislator Donnelly.

“While there have been many discussions on what should or shouldn’t be taught in schools, I think we can all agree that

Silas Wood got it right by putting kindness at the top of their lesson plans.”

ReesSpecht Life ( w w w. r e e s s p e c h t l i f e . com) was founded in 2013 and represents the commitment to making the world a kinder and better place to honor the memory of Mr. Specht’s late son Rees, who sadly passed away in a tragic drowning accident. The “Cultivate Kindness” school assembly program is designed for grades K-12 and is available both live and virtual.

things that a student can do in high school, for several reasons,” AP U.S Government and Politics teacher Laureen Kennedy said. “Number one, it gives them a taste of what they’re actually going to have in college. They’re being taught on that level.

It gives them a sense of responsibility, because they’re on their own.

And for a lot of students, they’re able to earn college credit while they’re still in high school, so, it’s a great opportunity financially.”

District Expands String Program To Third Grade

SUFFOLK ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 2, 2022 - MARCH 15, 2022 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

Northport-East Northport school district’s newly expanded third grade string orchestra program is embracing the support of their involved parents.

To ensure students are practicing their instruments at home, the district has invited parents to learn and play alongside their children four times per month.

Expanding the string orchestra program had been a hope of the district for over 16 years and was made possible following the district reorganization last year. Student musicians are often limited in their

at-home practice due to parents not knowing how to play. By opening up lessons to parents, the hope is that they will be able to reinforce the skills built in class while home.

Enrolled third graders each received a violin and parents were offered a discount to purchase or rent one from local vendors, or if they already have an adult size violin, they could bring their own.

The students learn either before school or during recess with teacher Veronica Kiss and their parents are invited to join them either after school on

Tuesdays or on Saturdays, four times per month.

Parents do not need to know how to play the instrument prior to attending and the group is a mix of first-time musicians and experienced players.

The program had significant interest and ultimately students were chosen by lottery as participation was limited.

“It was worth the wait because of the joy we saw in the parents and the kids,” said Director of Orchestras Michael Susinno. “It’s one of the few opportunities for parents to come in and witness learning first hand.

They loved it.”

NHS Students Place In Top Teams Northport High School digital generation students celebrated the culmination of their hard work during the annual final project presentations at Stony Brook University on Jan. 25. Over 120 students from seven Long Island high schools participated in the event, which allows students from different schools to team up to develop their presentations which explore the power of the internet & social media

to enhance web presence & digital profile.

The first-place team included two Northport High School students, sophomores Lillian Clements and Alexandra Curatolo, with the topic of “The Future of the Travel Industry.”

Additionally, sophomore Ryan DiMario was a member of the second-place team with the topic “Online Education” and junior Violet Wendol was a member of the

third-place team with the topic “Technology and the impact on Children”.

All students enrolled in Digital Generation are able to earn college credit through Stony Brook University, who hosted the final competition. The competition was judged by administrators from all seven participating districts, with the winning teams receiving Amazon gift cards.

Retiring Early

LEARNING VIOLIN - A parent works alongside their child to learn violin. Photo courtesy of the Northport-East Northport Union Free School District

According to Gallup’s 2021 Economy and Personal Finance survey, the average individual in the United States is retiring earlier than many people might expect. Gallup found that the average retirement age was 62, which is two years earlier than the working respondents

indicated they planned to retire. Canadians are retiring a little bit later than their American counterparts, as Statistics Canada reports the average retirement age in Canada is just over 63 and a half. The average retirement age is worth noting, as studies routinely find that many

working professionals greatest concern about retiring is that they won’t have enough money saved to meet their needs.

By recognizing that they may end up retiring earlier than they initially planned, professionals can make a concerted effort to save more money in the years ahead.

even though I am not old and am in good health, I always worried what would happen to Jacob if something happened to me. Thanks to Life’s WORC, I no longer have that fear. When I made the decision to make a planned gift to Life’s WORC, and after consulting with my financial advisor, we chose the planned giving option that worked best for me.

It doesn’t matter what planned giving vehicle you choose to gift. It only matters that you invest in the future of this great agency that is ensuring the future of my son and the over 2,000 individuals like him supported by Life’s WORC.” To implement its program, Life’s WORC’s Planned Giving Program has a team of experienced professionals consisting of a Planned Giving Administrator, Financial Specialist and Planned Giving Attorney. These individuals will work closely with donors’ financial advisors and estate planning attorneys to ensure that sound financial decisions are made. In order to raise awareness and educate prospective donors regarding its Planned Giving Program, Life’s WORC is also publishing a Planned Giving newsletter.

For more information on Life’s WORC’s Planned Giving Program, please contact Matthew Zebatto, Planning Giving Administrator at: 516.741.9000, X-2100 or email: plannedgiving@ lifesworc.org

serving children with developmental disabilities.

Rivera first learned about these conditions from Life’s WORC founder Victoria Schneps Yunis.

Her daughter, Lara, diagnosed at an early age with severe brain damage, was a resident at Willowbrook.

When cuts in state funding caused the institution to fall into extensive disrepair, Schneps, along with other concerned individuals, picketed to fight for the rights of Willowbrook’s more than 5,000 residents. Rivera’s report, which earned him a Peabody Award, ultimately forced the closing of Willowbrook.

Schneps Yunis started Life’s WORC and opened its first home in Little Neck, Queens. Its first residents were former Willowbrook residents.

Today, Life’s WORC provides beautiful homes located across the region, from Nassau and Suffolk to Queens and Manhattan, in addition to community services, financial and trust services, and the programs and services of its Family Center for Autism.

JOE REBOLI 5G PHOTOGRAPH STREETSCAPE The Reboli Center for Art & History in Stony Brook will for the first time feature the photographs of the late artist Joseph Reboli and several wellknown Long Island and New York based photographers such as: Donna Crinnian; Jeremy Dennis; Vanessa Fischer; Daniel Jones; Jacques LeBlanc; Timothy McCarthy; Jessica Neilson; Patricia Paladines; Matthew Raynor, Paul Scala; Leonid Shishov; Corinne Tousey; Marlene Weinstein; and Jo-Anne Wilson.

The exhibit is titled Through the Lens and can be viewed through March 27, 2022.

In conjunction with this exhibit, a companion show is in the History Room focusing on the life and work of nature photographer, Howard Eskin, a patron of the arts and dear friend of Joseph Reboli, who also collected many of his paintings. The Reboli Center is grateful to Lisa Eskin for lending items and for providing background information. JEREMY DENNIS PHOTOGPRAHER Eskin concentrated on photographing nature, and many of his pictures were published by the Audubon Society. In addition, there will be a slideshow depicting the evolution of photography from when the first recorded photograph was taken in the early 1800s.

“Just as Joe’s paintings glowed with illuminous light, so do his photographs. Joe was not widely known for his photography, but he really enjoyed it and I am happy to share that side of him. I have known the Eskin family for a longtime, and am very proud to document Howard’s life and work as part of this new exhibit,” said Lois Reboli, a founder and president of the Reboli Center for Art & History.

Some of the photographs in the exhibit include: Joseph Reboli, 76, Joseph Reboli, 5G, Jeremy Dennis, Chibiabos The Reboli Center is located at 64 Main Street in Stony Brook, and is open Tuesday – Saturday from 11am to 5pm and on Sunday 1pm to 5pm. Admission is free and for more information, please call 631-751-7707 or go to www.ReboliCenter.org

Life’s WORC (www. lifesworc.org), a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism through its residential, community and trust services, now celebrating 50 years in operation, is starting off the new year with a new Planned Giving Program. A complementary program to the organization’s already existing trust and financial services, the Life’s WORC Planned Giving Program will enable donors to create a lasting legacy that benefits Life’s WORC and those it serves, while also giving donors significant financial benefits.

According to Life’s WORC’s CEO Janet Koch, “Our donors are vital to our ability to fulfill our mission. Providing another way that enables them to help those we serve and address their financial goals prompted us to develop the Planned Giving Program. It is a natural extension of our other financial services and will enable Life’s WORC to be a better resource to both individuals with disabilities and their families, as well as a broader cross-section of the community.”

The Life’s WORC Planned Giving Program offers donors various options.

These include: gifts that use appreciated assets as a substitute for cash, gifts that return income or other financial benefits to the donor in return for his/ her contribution, and gifts payable upon the donor’s demise through his/her estate planning.

Life’s WORC Board Member Ron Aghassi, a single parent of a 20-year old special needs child who lives in a Life’s WORC home noted, “When I made the decision to place my son, Jacob, in a Life’s WORC home, I felt like a great fear was released. As a single parent,

Brotherhood of Teamsters representing the Cafeteria Staff.

“The challenges that COVID-19 has brought to us have impacted our daily functions and the way that we address our students and their needs, and it is certainly taking time, energy and effort from every member of this school community,” Superintendent Dr. Kenneth Bossert said.

“One of the things that has helped elevate the level of excellence that our schools and students enjoy is the level of collaboration we receive from our faculty and staff. We have seven bargaining units in the district, each represented by wonderful individuals who helped to make sure the relationships between labor and management remained collaborative,

communicative, respectful and courteous.

One of the reasons we did not face a serious fiscal situation during COVID was sacrifices made by our bargaining leaders and their members. Pay freezes, pay delays and reductions have all taken place in Elwood. Everybody has done everything they can to support their students and this district during the pandemic.”

“We’ve been very fortunate that all negotiations have been successful, and I’d like to congratulate both sides for always working together for our children,” Board of Education President James Tomeo said. “I’m thoroughly impressed that we can work together and get past our differences.

That’s something we should all be celebrating.”

Volunteering is a great way for individuals to strengthen their communities, but it also can be a unique way for individuals to improve their own overall happiness. A 2020 study published in the Journal of Happiness Studies examined 70,000 participants, each of whom received

surveys that asked questions regarding their volunteering habits and mental health.The study found that, when compared to those who did not volunteer, people who had volunteered in the previous 12 months were more satisfied with their lives and gave their overall health higher ratings.

The frequency of giving back to one’s community also may affect just how much volunteering affects mental health.

Study participants who volunteered at least once per month rated their mental health even higher than those who volunteered but did so infrequently.

Connecting Military Parents And Children, One Story At A Time

(StatePoint) For deployed service members who are also parents, being away from their kids is often the hardest part of the job.

This is why the United Service Organizations (USO) has prioritized connecting military parents with their families.

One way to bring service members a reminder of home is through USO entertainment tours, the most famous tour veteran, of course, being legendary comedian Bob Hope.

Hope’s legacy of service lives on today through the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program.

Bringing story time ondemand around the globe, the program connected more than 39,000 military families around the world through reading in 2019 BARGAINING UNITS FOR PANDEMIC SUPPORT HONORED - During the alone.

visit participating USO locations, record themselves reading their child’s favorite story and the USO ships that recording and book home to loved ones.

Likewise, military kids can record themselves reading a book and share the story time memories with their parents serving overseas.

Additionally, local USO reading events encourage kids to use their creativity and complete a craft that complements a story’s theme.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and many locations had to temporarily shut their doors, this did not deter USO volunteers and staff from finding innovative ways to continue their efforts safely. USO Erbil in Iraq put their ingenuity to work and outfitted the

back of a pickup truck with a makeshift trifold to serve as a reading “room.”

They then decorated the inside of the room and packed up a box of books, some props and a chair. The USO team drove the truck all around base, stopping outside popular locations as well as remote areas to reach as many service members as possible with their new, unofficial “Bob Hope on the Road” reading room.

To learn about how you can help connect military families through reading, visit uso.org/programs.

Parents universally know the draw of reading “one more book” to a pleading little one at bedtime. The Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program gives that opportunity back to deployed parents.

Autism And Children According to the National Autism Association, autism is a bio-neurological developmental disability that affects the normal development of the brain in various areas. Those areas include social interaction, communication skills and cognitive function. Autism generally appears before a child reaches his or her third birthday, and the NAA notes it is diagnosed

four times as often in boys than it is in girls. Roughly 40 percent of children with autism do not speak, but parents whose children speak between the ages of 12 and 18 months should know that such youngsters can still ultimately be diagnosed with autism. In such instances, the NAA notes that children lose the words they previously learned. Incidences of

autism appear to be on the rise, though the reasons for that remain unclear.

According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the prevalence of autism had risen to one in every 59 children by 2018.

That’s twice as great as the rate in 2004, when the CDC reported one in 125 children were diagnosed with autism.

The “Student Ambassadors” meet for a series of six workshops.

During each session, students explore topics of bias, identify resources and strategies to combat bias, and work collaboratively to develop tangible projects that enable them to share their knowledge with their school and community.

Open discussion and dialogue are encouraged, and the students are able to learn, not only from the presenters, but also from their peers from other neighboring schools and communities. As a culminating activity, students will apply the concepts and strategies they learned in the SJA

program to create a plan of action that targets and addresses bias in their school and community.

Each school will present their project plan before the end of the school year.

“After our first workshop, we were all super excited about this program,” said teacher Alessia Franco, who volunteered to run SJA at John Glenn along with social worker Joanna Sepp. “The kids were so engaged in every single discussion and activity, and as soon as we got out, they said ‘We can’t wait to go back!’ We are excited to learn more about the SJA, and we can’t wait to share what we learned with our community.”
