Historic Places

with Jamie Lynn Ryan

Forever Pals On March 9th, Supervisor Ed Romaine and Councilwoman Valerie M. Cartright visited the Old Field Club and Farm in East Setauket to recognize with a proclamation their listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Old Field Farm is an historic Long Island show grounds with a long equestrian tradition. Long Island philanthropist Ward Melville built the farm in 1931. He commissioned architect Richard Haviland Smythe (18991965) to create a unique equestrian facility located on a distinctive waterfront setting on Long Island’s North Shore. The stable complex is composed of a

main barn and courtyard, numerous free standing stables and a large, old fashioned wooden grandstand, all designed in the Colonial Revival style.

It is located on 13 scenic acres in the historic Three Village area adjoining 88 acres of protected wetlands overlooking Long Island Sound on the north and the West Meadow Creek wetlands to the south, an area which has been designated “outstanding natural coastal area” (ONCA) by New York State.

The Old Field Club was built by the Melville family in 1929 to be used as a swim club. It later became a private tennis and beach club and today it is a

popular catering facility.

Ward Melville founded the club as an additional amenity for new owners within the neighborhood and previous residents alike.

The clubhouse was built on eight acres adjacent to the Long Island Sound and included a club house, tennis courts, private sandy cabana beach, a newly built tidal bathing pool and deep waterways for boating and mooring. Like the farm, the architect for the clubhouse and beach cabanas was Richard Haviland Smythe who was known for his Colonial Revival designs.

Love You, Your Pal Forever Grandpa P.S. Did not cheat! …An excerpt from the inscription my Grandpa, my “Pal,” wrote in the pages of my senior high school yearbook, after some gentle, goodnatured prodding that, after all, he couldn’t always just leave these things to Grandma.

I’m not sure exactly when “Pal” became our thing, but indeed it was, for as far back as I can remember. It was the way we addressed each other – in person, in cards exchanged, in life – a bond that grew ever closer with each passing year.

So many memories, from childhood sleepovers at Grandma and Grandpa’s house, to endless summer (and autumn) nights spent “cuddling” on the couch watching the Yankees, plenty of snacks at hand. I would often call ahead to see if there were any good “tickets” available, and my Grandpa would chuckle on the other end of the phone, assuring me that he had saved two front row seats just for us.

There were the countless weekends spent following my Grandpa around the house, out to his shed in the backyard, down to the basement, his “workshop” … wanting to know what he was working on as he tinkered and trimmed, painted and planted – always doing something, but never too busy for his Pal. I can still recall the dozens of bocce ball “tournaments” in his backyard “court,” a perfectly manicured stretch of lawn that only he knew the nuances of, leading to many victories for Grandpa – me, not so much. And cards… I still have a set of playing cards my Pal gave to me, the same ones he had taught me to play “War” and “Rummy” with.

(He let me win those matches occasionally.)

So many hot summer afternoons running through the sprinklers as a child, “swimming” in my inflatable

Smurfs pool, and of course swinging on the old swing set in the backyard. Once the set came down – much to my dismay – my Grandpa managed to rig a single swing from a sturdy tree branch so that his “big kid” of a grandchild could still enjoy.

I can clearly picture my Pal sitting on the patio under the awning watching me fly through the air, laughing silently, his shoulders shaking up and down.

There were the days when I would accompany my Pal on his frequent walks around the neighborhood, a route that often took us through the local cemetery around the corner from his house. Occasionally, I would bring my bicycle along and “practice” on the smooth paved paths, eventually begging him to take me to the nearby elementary school where I could speed through the empty parking lot at my leisure while he kept a careful eye on me.

As I grew older, my Grandpa would often pick me up from work on the weekends for lunch, where he would make his “famous” pepper and potato and egg pie for me. As we sat down to eat, he would let me sip some of the foam from the top of his beer. Often, we would finish up with a few pretzels or cookies, as you could never leave without having dessert.

At Christmas time, one of our most cherished family traditions, we would celebrate Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa’s. Grandma would take care of the menu, and Grandpa would handle all the gift-wrapping, a skill he had perfected from his many years of working at the A&S department store. And, just when the night was nearly over, my Pal would disappear down the basement, only to emerge with “one more gift,” usually the most special one of all.

At Father’s Day, it became tradition for me to take my father and grandfather out to breakfast, using the funds that my Pal had given me throughout the year when he would come over to collect my recyclables and cash in the bottle deposits. It didn’t matter if there were two

bottles; he always gave me at least a dollar in return. If it was more, five dollars. When I protested that it was too much, he would just smile, saying he was “going to the store anyway” to check out the latest sales and stock up the basement “pantry.”

As I grew older, I came to appreciate more and more what a special man this was, how lucky I was to have him in my life. I cherished every message he would leave on our home answering machine, singing “Happy Birthday” to me; and, once my grandmother passed away several years ago, the beautiful cards he would pick out to mark every occasion.

Whether we were exchanging funny faces and making cross-eyes at each other across the kitchen table, or I was begging him to let me treat him to dinner at our local diner (not knowing he had already sent his secret signal to the waitress and managed to whisk away the bill before anyone else had a chance to see it), we always had a deep connection.

Just last week, my special Pal passed away, leaving a giant hole in my heart. His life was a shining example of what a man should be, to my grandmother, to his children and grandchildren, to everyone. His at-times shy, always humble, demeanor concealed a sly sense of humor that only those closest to him were privileged to see. The laughter and love he brought to all our lives was, and remains, my fondest memory of him.

Each time I hear the song “In the Mood,” I will continue to picture my grandparents flying across the dance floor, never missing a step, as they looked adoringly at one another. I can only hope they are dancing together at this very moment.

And so, Pal… May God always watch over you (me too).

I promise to be careful, and to always be good.

Love You, Your Pal Forever Jamie

Students: Put Away Your Smart Phone!

In just the past couple of years, especially, it seems, at commuter colleges, the majority of students in campus corridors seem to be staring down at their smart phones.

“In the classroom, cell phones are a major distraction,” said Stoney Brooks, a professor of Computer Information Systems at Middle Tennessee State University. “Many students do not think that multitasking – checking Facebook, texting, watching a harmless YouTube video, etc. – is harmful to their learning. This is not true. Humans cannot multitask – we rapidly task-switch. And whenever we switch tasks, our brains have to refocus our processing to the new task, and we forget some of the information that we had for the first task. There are studies that show that, for example, social media use in the classroom is associated with increased stress and lower classroom performance.”

Obviously, this can be a safety concern, too, with no one actually looking up and taking in the action happening around them. But also it can be a quality-of-life concern, as students may not feel they can escape their day-today worries while on campus, instead managing their private lives via the device. What suffers could be the socalled “college experience,” the experts warn us. You may be missing out on enjoying your time on a real, physical campus while you tend to a virtual world.

“Cell phones have a great potential for help and for harm.

Sadly, the harmful effects are more prevalent than the helpful ones for today’s students, and they are cheating themselves out of the true college experience,” Brooks added.

One professor told us an anecdote of another professor who gives his students allotted breaks for their cell phone use. This would be analogous to the cigarette breaks given in the 1970s and prior. The students have trouble keeping focus if they can’t get a fix.

By Darren Johnson, Campus News

Although quality use of the smart phone is more important than using it for fun.

“What the students are reading on their phones isn’t all unimportant content,” said Steven Rothberg, president of College Recruiter, a job placement site. “With well over 90 percent using smart phones and most reading e-mails on their smart phones, students are often using their phones to search for an internship or entry-level job. That type of reading will require more focus on their phones and less on their surroundings than if they were looking at videos of cute kittens.”

We decided to focus on the work of Dr. Ofir Turel, professor of information systems and decision sciences at Cal State Fullerton, for this issue.

“Smart phones are like refrigerators full of surprising foods; it is very tempting for many users to get sucked into checking and updating content,” Dr. Turel told us.

“Taken together, the strong psychological rewards people receive from using applications on their cell phones, the inconvenience they feel when they do not use them, and the time it takes to do all this are reasonable possible explanations for the need to spend break time, while walking through university corridors, on the cell phone.”

You have to ask yourself, is what you’re doing on social media really all that important?

“The concept of a “friend” has changed, from having 10-30 friends when I grew up to having hundreds or thousands of “friends” on Facebook, some of whom you have never met,” Turel said. “Managing so many so-called friends, following their daily, and often mundane, routines and activities, is time consuming.

“Overall, the balance between the positive and negative effects of cell phone really depends on the self-control of

users and their understanding that they need to put limits on and control their use patterns. Ultimately, allowing the use of such sites in class assumes a certain level of maturity – students need to refrain from abusing such systems, and use these “re-charging” rights wisely.”

So what can be done about this problem, if anything?

“First, we need to increase awareness among students regarding potential problems associated with excessive and sometimes addictive use of some technologies,” Turel said.

Some universities already include a module on Internet/ video gaming risks for incoming freshmen students, he noted, so adding a seminar on appropriate smart phone use would be easy.

“Many causes of dropping out have to do with spending too much time on non-productive Internet activities such as playing video games,” he said. “Teachers can explain the risks to students and discuss their cell phone and social media use policies in class.”

Turel added, “Cell phones, Facebook and other technologies are like food – we need them and we do not want to avoid them. When consumed at healthy levels, for the right purpose and properly (for example, around the table and not while driving) they are very useful. However, over- and improper consumption can lead to adverse consequences. We need to be better aware of these risks and teach ourselves to develop the right balance of both food consumption and technology use.”

Brooks concluded, “The addiction that students have to their mobile devices has fundamentally changed the nature of interpersonal relationships and communication. The technology has allowed us to communicate and connect easier and more rapidly, but has caused even more distance between people.”

SUFFOLK ZONE 3 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 23, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Students in the Eastern Suffolk BOCES Early Childhood Education (ECE) Program at Islip Career Center (ICC) are learning the skills they need to be career ready.

The coursework prepares them academically and visiting programs in the community gives them a better idea of real career and volunteer opportunities.

Recently, Rachel Grodofsky’s ECE class toured the Patchogue YMCA Early Childhood Development and preschool programs, and learned about the after

school programs at from Child Care Director Tina Norbut. Grodofsky said, “It’s good for the students to take tours and get a better idea of what a job entails. It’s important for them to get out into the community, see what types of jobs are out there, and know that what they are learning applies to those jobs. The special career education programs are preparing the students to be employable.”

The students also visited a Montessori School to learn about child-centered educational philosophy and several libraries to

learn about volunteer and job opportunities.

Emily, a student from the Comsewogue UFSD, said, “Our classroom at ICC is very similar to the classrooms here at the YMCA Preschool. We also do things with our preschool children like art, dramatic play, circle time, and snack. We are learning to create lesson plans and we take turns leading the class in science, math, and language lessons.”

Emily aspires to be a teacher assistant after she graduates from the ECE Program at Islip Career Center.

Raising Funds

Eastern Suffolk BOCES was one of the five top team fundraisers for Autism Speaks Walk - Long Island raising $18,928. The other teams were Tyler W., Broadridge Financial Solutions, Love for Dylan & Noah, and GEICO. The 16th annual Autism Speaks Walk - Long Island

took place on October 4th, 2015 and the total amount raised was $958,361.

Peggie Staib, associate superintendent for educational services, said, “For the past 15 years, an ESBOCES team of agency staff, students, and families have participated in the Autism Speaks Long

Island Walk. We team up every year to help raise awareness and funds for research, advocacy, and to find a cure. We are proud of our efforts at ESBOCES to provide appropriate, specialized educational services to our students with autism and autism spectrum disorders.”

Out of the Box Restoration

Students in John Hellmuth’s Auto Body Repair and Refinishing Program at Eastern Suffolk BOCES Islip Career Center sometimes do “out of the box” projects. The special career education students typically dismantle

damaged cars, straighten metal parts and car frames, hammer out dents, grind, sand and prepare cars for the paint shop.

They also learn how to do oxy acetylene welding.

Having the ability to weld and knowing the

proper techniques afford students the opportunity to use the skill on things other than cars. Hellmuth likes to offer his students different projects to work on to expand their practical skills and career opportunities.

Recently students used their welding fabrication skills to restore and rebuild a barbeque smoker for Michael Heerbrandt, a volunteer firefighter with the West Sayville Fire Department.

Heerbrandt said, “I thought I could fabricate a smoker by myself. I started with a brand new 275-gallon oil tank.” He painted it but the paint began peeling off.

He realized he didn’t have the tools and equipment he needed to build the smoker correctly.

“When things started to go wrong, I remembered a fellow firefighter, John Hellmuth, was a teacher at ESBOCES doing auto repair. I asked him if his students ever worked on

“out of the box” projects; anything not related to cars.” Hellmuth responded with, “We are up for almost anything.”

Several items needed to be repaired, rebuilt, and restored on the smoker.

The students took apart the trailer, put it back together again so it sat straight, rewired the lights on the back trailer, took the tank off and welded it back on.

They sanded and repainted the tank, cut and welded a steel plate to fit between the food and the fire, and welded shelves onto the smoker for the food.

“They did a great job. I’m very thankful for all their hard work. I know that the smoker is safe and sturdy,” Heerbrandt said. A new smoker can cost upwards

of $8,000. “This one is as good or better and it’s a great conversation piece,” he said.

Heerbrandt paid for all the parts and supplies and thanked the students with lunch, cooked using the newly-refurbished smoker.

It consisted of pulled pork, chicken, and several side dishes.

This “out of the box” project was beneficial to the students who are learning skills for postschool employment.

“Being able to take a skill and apply it means they can demonstrate knowledge and competency; doing this project for firefighters made the experience even more rewarding,” said Hellmuth.

With 76 units, HELP Suffolk is the largest transitional housing facility for homeless families on Long Island. Since its inception in 1990, HELP Suffolk has served over 4,000 families and has placed approximately 60 percent of families in permanent housing.

“Transitional housing is a true safety-net for the homeless and HELP Suffolk has been helping those in need on Long Island in this regard for more than 25 years,” said Brookhaven Town Councilman Loguercio.

“I applaud these terrific students here today for their fundraising efforts and commitment to others.

I also thank Optimum Community for making this program available to the young people in our

area.”

“Through its ongoing Charity Champions program, Optimum Community continues to provide high school students with an opportunity to help those in need and better realize the importance of giving back,” said Jennifer Ostrager, Cablevision Vice President of Public Affairs. “We congratulate the students at Bellport High School for their participation.”

For the seventh year, Optimum Community is bringing its Charity Champions program to high schools within its service footprint. Selected schools receive $500 in seed money to put towards fundraising efforts, in addition to a $1,000 donation to their charity of choice. Throughout the school year, students raise money and awareness for their selected charity and submit a summary of fundraising results in April 2015. Schools compete against each other and a grand prize winner in each of the tri-state regions that Optimum serves will receive an additional $5,000 for their charity.

Arts Council Grant Recipients Continued From 6 In Suffolk and Nassau counties, Long Island Decentralization is administered by the Huntington Arts Council.

Funding decisions are made by a series of panels

comprised of local artists, community leaders, and individuals from throughout the region. All award recommendations are required to be voted on by the Board of Directors of the Huntington Arts Council, Inc.

In 1977, the New York State Council of the Arts (NYSCA) developed the Decentralization program in response to a state legislative mandate that encouraged the administration and awarding of grant money

at a local level. Through this program, nonprofit organizations and individual artists may apply annually for grants to help strengthen the arts and cultural programs in their communities.

It is the intention of

New York State Council on the Arts that these funds, regranted through Decentralization, provide developmental support to those organizations exhibiting quality programming, community support, and

professionalism.

Main Street Gallery is located at 213 Main Street in Huntington, and is open Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday, from 12 noon to 4 p.m.

Cooking Challenge Champs

held at Glen Cove Hospital, proving they can serve up scrumptious, restaurantquality meals, but without the added high fat, calories or sodium.

The winning chef team – Janisa Freysinet, North Shore University Hospital; Patricia Sobel, Northern Westchester Hospital; and Russell Ficke, Syosset Hospital; had never professionally cooked together.

Their three delicious and eye-pleasing

dishes took the top honor for this menu: “Gobi Dumplings,” “Cauliflower Steak Chana Masala,” and “Pineapple, Peaches and Meringues.”

Coinciding with National Nutrition Month in March, five culinary teams of three chefs from different hospitals faced off at Glen Cove’s Pratt Auditorium, which was transformed into a giant kitchen equipped with electric burners, a pantry

order to maintain a healthy work place and workforce and it starts with food,” he said, adding “improving our hospital food is good medicine.”

For the first time, Sven Gierlinger, vice president and chief experience officer at Northwell Health, served as a judge for the cooking challenge. With an extensive background in the hospitality industry and a state-certified chef in Bavaria, Germany, Mr. Gierlinger said, “In this competition, the two most important components of cooking – joy and health – come together.” In the hospital, he said, “patients look forward to meals; it’s a safe time, a time to get more than nourishment but also to provide innovative recipes that will enhance the patient experience.”

The event also welcomed back competition judge Todd Daigneanult, an executive chef at Overlook Medical Center in NJ. In addition to the winning chef team, judges recognized first place winners in each course and the vegetarian category:

• First course: Frank Imbrosciano, Huntington Hospital; “Vegetarian Asian Potsticker” • Second course: Patrick Beirne, Southside Hospital; “Pan Seared Curried Tuna” • Third course: Russell Ficke, Syosset Hospital; “Pineapple, Peaches and Meringues” • Vegetarian: Patricia Sobel, Northern Westchester Hospital; “Cauliflower Steak Chana Masala” “Health system chefs and staff create over eight million meals annually for patients, staff and visitors, which is quite a feat,” said Michael Kiley, director of nutrition and food services at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, who organized the cook off and served as the event’s emcee. In this competition, chefs can focus their creative talents on an original three-course meal, demonstrating that they can prepare appealing food that tastes delicious and is healthy.”

SUFFOLK ZONE 3 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 23, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

In a pressure cooker competition, three hospital chefs with more than 50 years of combined culinary experience, impressed judges at Northwell Health’s Fifth Annual Ultimate Healthy Cooking Challenge to win the top prize for their original India- inspired, three-course menu.

Culinary masters from 15 hospitals around the New York metropolitan area competed in the contest

and a plentiful farmers’ market for the cooking contest. Each team had 60 minutes to create tasty, attractive and nutritious meals for the three judges to score, and one for the presentation table. Hospital culinary teams were paired with registered dieticians and interns from North Health hospitals to ensure that the three-course meal must be equal or less than 700 calories, 15 grams of fat and 750 milligrams of sodium. Teams were given a “surprise protein” – such as halibut, shrimp, chicken and filet mignon, or had the option of selecting a vegetarian protein – around which to build their original three course meal.

“The Ultimate Chef Challenge highlights how our chefs are able to inspire delicious and nutritious meals, not only for our patients but for ourselves,” said Robert E. Graham, MD, director of integrative health & wellness at Northwell Health, and one of the competition’s judges. “We are investing in a culture of health and wellness in

Distinguished Teacher Rachel Pantorno, resident of Amityville and teacher at Sewanhaka High School, has been named a “Distinguished Teacher of 2016” by the Harvard Club of Long Island.

“This award honors teachers who transform lives,” explained Dr. Judith Esterquest, Harvard Club of Long Island Chair of the Distinguished Teacher Selection Committee.

“Devoted teachers like Ms. Pantorno offer Long Island students deep expertise, extraordinary talents, and countless hours of attention. By capturing the minds and imaginations of our children and preparing them for challenges that were unknown even a few decades ago, these teachers shape the future of our country.”

One of a fourteen teachers from across Long Island to receive this award - from across the 150 public school districts and private schools on

Long Island - Ms. Pantorno will be honored at the Harvard Club of Long Island’s annual University Relations Luncheon on April 10th. Following the award ceremony, Benjamin M. Friedman, Professor of Political Economy at Harvard University, will discuss “Prospects for the US Economy and US Economic Policy.”

Ms. Pantorno , who teaches World History and AP World History at Sewanhaka High School, has taught in the district for eleven of her sixteen years. After earning a degree in history from Adelphi University, she earned her Masters in Secondary Education from Molloy College.

Besides having what she describes as “a passion for teaching,” she continues the avocation she began pursuing in high school, volunteering in different capacities at local animal rescue organizations. In

the summers, she travels widely - to Italy, Brazil, Costa Rica, and so on.

Nominated by Shahrukh Khan, a graduate of Sewanhaka in the Harvard College Class of 2017. Ms. Pantorno was described as “Incredibly influential” and “eccentric and demanding,” as well as “effective and caring.”

“She also fostered an interest in history that stays strong today,” added Mr. Khan “with many of my classmates (and I) going on to major in international relations, economics, and political science.”

“Tedious, annoying and hard” were the adjectives the former student used to describe nightly homework, before adding, “but whether they were readings out of a textbook or coloring and labeling countries and empires on a map, they were like going to the gym: everyday I felt stronger, more prepared.”

Summarizing, Mr. Khan remembers classes as riveting and fun, giving him a “taste of collegelevel studies,” particularly discussions of non-test related topics, such as the origin of Genghis Khan’s real name or the nature of Italian food recipes.” Now, when he thinks of Sewanhaka, he thinks of this “energetic, enthusiastic woman, dancing with the stars of history and teaching her students how to do the same.”

At the ceremony on April 10th, the Harvard Club of Long Island will announce the Distinguished Teachers of 2016 who will also receive scholarships for a “Harvard experience” at the Harvard University campus in Cambridge, Mass. Past winners of the scholarships have enhanced their teaching by sampling the resources available to Harvard students: meeting with

faculty; visiting research laboratories, rare book archives, and specialty museums; and enjoying visual and performance art. The scholarships are funded by contributions from Harvard alumni living on Long Island.

When Superintendent of Schools Dr. Ralph Ferrie learned of this award, he noted his pride that “she has received this prestigious award,” further noting, “Rachel Pantorno is a shining example of what makes a great teacher.

Her commitment to her students is commendable.”

Debra Lidowsky, Principal of Sewanhaka High School, described herself as “thrilled,” before adding, “Rachel is absolutely deserving of this honor. She is an outstanding teacher who is passionate about her subject and is dedicated to her students’ success.”

This year’s fourteen Distinguished Teacher

Award winners were nominated by current Harvard undergraduates and then selected by Harvard Club of Long Island board members.

This year’s award winners teach art, biology, chemistry, earth science, English, marine science, math, music and social studies.

The winners teach in the Half Hollow Hills, Herricks, Hicksville, Manhasset, Massapequa, Oceanside, Sayville, Sewanhaka, Syosset and Valley Stream districts, as well as St. Anthony’s High School, The Stony Brook School and the Waldorf School.

Three Sewanhaka science teachers in prior years have been honored by the Harvard Club of LI: Yvonne Sherwood in 2006, David Sexton in 2013, and Jack Chen in 2015.

annual University Relations Luncheon on April 10th, along with thirteen other teachers from across the 150 public school districts and private schools on Long Island.

Following the award ceremony, Benjamin M. Friedman, Professor of Political Economy at Harvard University, will discuss “Prospects for the US Economy and US Economic Policy.”

Ms. Dowd started her career at Syosset High School in 1988 teaching Sequential 1 Mathematics.

Over the past 25 years, she has taught every

mathematics course at the school, and through her mentoring of independent study students, has taught second- and third-year college Calculus courses.

Ms. Dowd, who was voted “Teacher of the Year” by the Nassau County Math Teacher’s Association in 2009, holds a B.S. in mathematics from Fairfield University, a M.S. in mathematics education from Long Island University - CW Post, and an advanced degree in school administration from Hofstra University.

“This award honors Esterquest, Harvard Club Susan Dowd of Syosset Teacher of 2016” by the High School has been Harvard Club of Long teachers who transform of Long Island Chair of lives,” explained Dr. Judith the Distinguished Teacher named a “Distinguished Island.

Selection Committee.

“Devoted teachers like Ms. Dowd offer Long Island students deep expertise, extraordinary talents, and countless hours of attention. By capturing the minds and imaginations of our children and preparing them for challenges that were unknown even a few decades ago, these teachers shape the future of our country.”

Ms. Dowd will be honored at the Harvard Club of Long Island’s

Harvard Club Honoree

SUFFOLK ZONE 3 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 23, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Continued From 18 In her spare time, she enjoys boating, going to the beach, and spending time with her family.

Karishma Shah, a former Syosset High School student who will graduate from Harvard College in 2017, nominated Ms. Dowd, describing her as “a prominent influence in my life.” “Without her encouraging me to take challenging classes and inspiring me to be more resilient, I would not have pursued or been able to survive some of Harvard’s most challenging classes.”

Ms. Shah added, “I now tutor Calculus and find myself explaining the concepts in the way Ms. Dowd taught me. As a result of Ms. Dowd’s influence and my subsequent work with my tutees, my tutees have not only improved their grades but also their attitudes toward challenges.”

At the ceremony on April 10th, the Harvard Club of Long Island will announce the Distinguished Teachers of 2016 who will also receive scholarships for a “Harvard experience” at the Harvard University

campus in Cambridge, Mass. Past winners of the scholarships have enhanced their teaching by sampling the resources available to Harvard students: meeting with faculty; visiting research laboratories, rare book archives, and specialty museums; and enjoying visual and performance art. The scholarships are funded by contributions from Harvard alumni living on Long Island.

When Syosset High School Principal Dr. Giovanni Durante learned of this award, she commented, “Sue Dowd is an exemplary teacher

who epitomizes all that is good about education.

Her mastery of all levels of mathematics makes her one of the most sought after mentors in our building.”

Dr. Durante further noted, “As a teacher in the classroom her knowledge is only matched by her compassion for the students and an understanding of the many learning styles which are necessary to properly convey the material. Our school is a better place because of all that Sue Dowd does both inside and outside of the classroom.”

“What the Harvard Club of Long Island is acknowledging now, we have known for years,” Dr. Durante continued, “She is indeed a distinguished teacher and deserving of this recognition.”

This year’s fourteen Distinguished Teacher Award winners were nominated by current Harvard undergraduates and then selected by Harvard Club of Long Island board members.

This year’s award winners teach art, biology, chemistry, earth science, English, marine science, math, music and social studies. The winners

teach in the Half Hollow Hills, Herricks, Hicksville, Manhasset, Massapequa, Oceanside, Sayville, Sewanhaka, Syosset, and Valley Stream districts, as well as St. Anthony’s High School, The Stony Brook School and the Waldorf School.

Prior winners of this award in the Syosset Central School District have included math teacher Arthur Kalish in 2005, biology teacher Stephen Wolfson in 2006, history teacher Allison Noonan in 2014, and science teachers Brian Belanger and Linda Stollow in 2015.

Basic Training Grad U.S. Air Shannan graduated military Joint Base

Force Airman F. Leger from basic training at San Antonio-
