Allergy And Dirty Ducts (NAPSI)—Allergies are nothing to sneeze at but you can make your home more comfortable for people who have allergies and improve your indoor air quality—by cleaning in an often forgotten place.

Indoor air quality can be a big concern for many

families. After all, in a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust— including dangerous chemicals and other pollutants—is created annually through everyday living. These contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and recirculated

as much as seven times a day. Over time, this leads to built-up contaminants in the ductwork. Since your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home, you want to keep it clear.

Roman Banquet

In a feast fit for a king, Port Jefferson School District’s high school and middle school Latin Club members, along with adviser Anne Algieri, hosted the annual Roman Banquet at the Port Jefferson Village Center.

More than 50 students and their family members were in attendance at the ninth annual event. To recognize ancient Roman culture, students dressed in togas and tunicas, recited ancient Latin poems, performed traditional

songs and feasted on traditional Roman foods.

Modeled on an ancient Roman banquet, the menu’s theme was “Ab ovo usque ad mala” (from eggs to apples), the equivalent of the modern expression “from soup to nuts.”

National Recognition fine arts curriculum, including music, art and drama. This recognition is a well-deserved tribute to the dedication, diligence, passion and excellence of our students, our music department and our community.”

In addition to providing daily music education on the elementary, middle and high school level, the District’s music department provides frequent opportunities for students to perform as well as innovative lessons that go beyond the classroom.

Students perform in concerts, plays and recitals for classmates throughout the year.

The Best Communities for Music Education designation is awarded to districts that demonstrate outstanding achievement in efforts to provide music access and education to all students. To qualify for the distinction, the Miller Place School District answered detailed questions about funding, graduation requirements, music class participation,

instruction time, facilities, support for the music program, and community music-making programs.

Responses were verified with school officials and reviewed by The Music Research Institute at the University of Kansas.

“Music education is an essential part of our students’ growth into well-rounded individuals, scholars and good citizens,” said Miller Place High School Principal Kevin Slavin. “A strong musical background supports students’ creative problem solving abilities and teamwork while providing the skills necessary to excel both inside and outside the classroom.”

The NAMM Foundation is a non-profit supported in part by the National Association of Music Merchants and its 9,000 members around the world.

The NAMM Foundation works to advance active participation in music making by supporting scientific research, philanthropic giving and public service programs.

In recognition of its outstanding commitment to music education, the Miller Place School District was recently honored by the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) Foundation with the NAMM 2018 Best Communities for Music Education Award. This is the third consecutive year the District has received this award. Less than 10 percent of school districts nationwide received the prestigious award in 2018.

The honor comes as a result of the outstanding efforts of Miller Place teachers, administrators, parents, students and community leaders to ensure access to music learning for all students as part of the school curriculum.

“We are honored to receive this designation from the NAMM foundation for the third year in a row,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Marianne Cartisano. “Our artistic faculty pours hours of dedication and talent into creating and building upon the District’s outstanding

May’s Charity of the Month is:

Lisa Gatti is the CEO & Founder of PalO-Mine Equestrian, Inc., a comprehensive therapeutic equine program that uses horses to facilitate growth, learning and healing for individuals with disabilities and for other vulnerable populations. Through persistence, hard work and a passion to serve others, Lisa opened Pal-O-Mine in 1995 as a 501(C)(3) non-profit.

Pal-O-Mine grew from having two programs, eight horses and 80 students per week to 11 programs, 25 horses and 400 students per week - and they continue to grow today!

Individuals of all ages are welcome to take part in the programs they offer. They operate with five full-time employees, 35 independent contractors and 80 volunteers a week. Their riding instructors have experience with the following diagnoses: Autism Spectrum Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Sensory Processing Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Neurological Disorders, Cerebral Palsy, Traumatic Brain Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, Genetic Disorders and Emotional Disturbances.

Every day, they have a different school drop off children at their location to benefit from their organization; they also offer group programs, individual lessons, corporate workshops and a program

specifically designed for military members.

If your company is interested in participating in a Corporate Leadership Program, Pal-O-Mine is the place for you!

They offer Corporate Retreats, Team Building Workshops, Staff Development and Leadership and Management Skill Programs. When participating in one of these Corporate Leadership Programs, your employees will work not only with each other, but with horses as well. The benefits of working with horses are boundless! Horses are prey animals, and because of that they must be very aware of their environment.

They also live in the moment and are completely honest. The way an individual interacts and reacts with a horse is similar to the way they interact with their peers, customers and work groups. People tend to interpret horse behavior and emotions through the lens of their personal perception.

How they interpret horses can often be a metaphor for their work, their attitudes and their relationships. To learn more about their Corporate Leadership Programs, please contact Lisa Gatti at LGatti@Pal-O-Mine.org.

Pal-O-Mine also offers many volunteer and donation opportunities. If you are interested in volunteering with or donating to this heart-warming organization, please contact their Program Director, Carol Ann Guerriero, at 631.348.1389 or CGuerriero@ Pal-O-Mine.org!

Teeing Off Against Cancer The American Cancer Society Kicked Off the 46th Year of Babes Against Cancer this week uniting more than 30 Golf and Country Clubs across Long Island to raise funds and awareness to support breast and prostate cancer.

The event raises more than $1M annually and the collective support has surpassed $30 million dollars, making it the largest American Cancer Society fundraiser of its kind, thanks to the joint efforts of over 600 volunteers and 5,000 participants at 30 country clubs in the New York Metro area.

More than 230 guests attended the official campaign launch for 2018 on Thursday, May 17th at the Glen Oaks Club, 175 Post Avenue, Old Westbury.

Dollars raised through Babes Against Cancer supports the American Cancer Society’s work to save lives and provide support to everyone impacted by cancer -- from research to education, prevention to diagnosis, and treatment to recovery.

The runner-up was Fresh Meadow Country Club, who have collectively raised more than $2.8 M since the inception of the Babes campaign.

Highlight of the day was the presentation of the Sandy Award, named in memory of Sandy Zuckerman Rothstein, a breast cancer survivor who started the first tournament at The Muttontown Club in 1972. This year’s award was presented to Sandy Seltzer of Roslyn for her outstanding contribution to the Babes Against Cancer fundraising efforts

with Jamie Lynn Ryan

Sharing is Caring I recently listened in on a rather interesting Press Club of Long Island panel discussion, highlighting the process which went into investigating a cold case that had gone unsolved for over 50 years on the east end of Long Island. The teamwork between reporters and the police department eventually resulted in the case being “cracked,” so to speak, and the unsolved murder put to rest.

I bring this up not because of my fascination with true crime stories; but rather, it brought to light the importance of a component often missing in many lines of work, in life as a whole … that of collaboration. Often, the focus is on independence, on doing things one’s own way, with little room for input from others. Cooperation is key – this a concept taught to us from the first day of kindergarten on up, earlier even, as we begin to learn the process of sharing our resources (even if those happen to be building blocks or Barbie dolls).

I don’t often have the

opportunity to cover events; but recently, I was privileged to take my journalistic tools into the field and exercise some of those reporting and photography skills honed in the lecture halls of college, even as far back as the grade school classroom.

As I stood on the tarmac at Republic Airport last week, borrowed camera in hand, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, I scanned the crowd assembled.

Veteran reporters mixed with fresh-faced interns, all waiting for a glimpse of the majestic planes.

Some carried smart phones; others set up elaborate tripods and fiddled with expensive lenses, all determined to capture that “perfect” shot upon landing.

Suddenly, there was a roar overhead. All attention was instantly focused on the sky, as cameras zoomed, record buttons were pushed and people jostled for a better angle. And then, just like that, they were gone, gliding to a landing on a distant runway before slowly taxiing toward us, where they would

eventually park for follow-up pilot interviews. All around, you heard the murmurings of Did you get the shot? and I thought they would be approaching from the other way… Can we get a do-over?

And in that mix of elation and disappointment as many realized they had not, in fact, captured much of anything in their respective frames, there emerged that collaboration I speak of – that natural instinct to cooperate for a common goal.

Phone numbers were exchanged, business cards swapped and contacts were instantly made, with promises to share footage and photos. After all, we were here for the same reason. No benefit to withholding information that, ultimately, we all desired to share with the masses.

We may not have cracked a case that morning, but we demonstrated on a much smaller scale the beauty of cooperation, of teamwork. The stunning fighter jets aside, that may have been the most beautiful sight of all.

As a result of their project on Polychiral Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube Solar Cells, a team of Ward Melville High School students in the Three Village Central School District have been named first-place winners in the National ExploraVision Competition.

Central School District congratulates team members Kian Abbott, Jeffrey Casey, Abhinav Yadav, Darren Tung, and teacher James Dornicik for winning the national prize.

The students will be traveling to Washington, D.C. to be recognized for their outstanding accomplishment and

to receive their awards.

Their project was judged best by a national team of judges consisting of scientists from the likes of NASA, National Institute of Health, National Science Foundation, Food & Drug Administration, and others for creativity, scientific accuracy, communication and feasibility of vision.

It includes commercial kitchens that serve as

In July 2010, the Dignity for All Students Act was signed into law to combat bias-based bullying, discrimination and harassment in public schools, and to ensure the right of every public school student to learn in a safe, welcoming, and caring environment.

Eastern Suffolk BOCES, the Suffolk County InterFaith Anti-Bias Task Force, and the Suffolk County School Superintendents Association joined together and have been working in collaboration to ensure the guidelines and goals established by DASA are being effectively implemented in public schools throughout Suffolk County.

One of their joint initiatives was to facilitate

a forum, which coincided with the fifth anniversary of the introduction of DASA, where Suffolk County school districts’ Dignity Act coordinators and district DASA coordinators could share their best practices in the areas of disseminating information to staff, students, and parents; the training of staff and students; prevention and response to events; and response to violations.

Through an open dialogue, forum attendees shared and received valuable insight into effective practices, and the tools to enhance their own processes. “We believe that the best product is created through collaboration, and we are grateful to the Suffolk County InterFaith Anti-Bias Task

Force for sponsoring a forum where the best thinkers from Suffolk County came together,” said Suffolk County School Superintendents Association President Lars Clemensen. “From this collaboration was born a resource guide of best practices in the county for making sure students are free from bullying, harassment, and discrimination.”

While there is much good work going on in schools across Suffolk County in compliance with DASA, there is always more that can be done and shared. As an outgrowth of this successful forum, a DASA resource guide, which is a compilation of best practices utilized in Suffolk County public

schools for the past five years, was created. This comprehensive resource guide, which is being shared with all Suffolk County school districts, will serve as an informative and valuable tool to support and enhance the work being done to implement DASA and protect the rights of all children attending public schools.

“The Dignity for All Students Act defines the necessary components to ensure that students are treated with dignity within the school walls and at school events,” said ESBOCES Chief Operating Officer Julie Davis Lutz, Ph.D. “It is our hope that this resource guide and the ongoing work that we do with students and staff

ensure that this happens in all aspects of their lives, both within and beyond the school doors.”

“This resource guide is a collaboration between the Suffolk County Human Rights Commission, the Suffolk County Anti-Bias Task Force, Eastern Suffolk BOCES and the Suffolk County School Superintendents Association,” said Suffolk County Human Rights Commission Chairman Rabbi Steven Moss. “As acts of bullying occur every day in schools, it is vital that schools provide a safe haven for those who have been bullied, a procedure to report these incidents, and then a method to deal with them by those in authority.

This useful resource guide will assist those school

personnel who want to understand how they can continue and improve their implementation of DASA for the sake of their students. A special and sincere thank you to all involved in this important project.”

For more information on best practices for the implementation of DASA in public schools, visit the Suffolk County School Superintendents Association website at www. suffolksuperintendents. org.

Math Muscle Ten students from Edna Louise Spear Elementary School’s Studies for Enriching Academic Learning program took part in the 2018 Suffolk County Math Olympiad Competition recently held at Stony Brook University.

The competition for the top five fourth-grade and the top five fifthgrade Olympiad students from Port Jefferson was an opportunity to learn important strategies for problem-solving.

Student Jinah Kwak won third place in the fifth-grade division, Max Kronberg won third place in the fourth-grade division, Tucker Stanton won second place in the fourth-grade division, and the fourth-grade team won third place in the fourthgrade team competition.

School of Distinction The Earl L. Vandermeulen High School’s athletic program has another reason to be proud: All spring varsity teams have been named Scholar/Athlete teams by the New York State Public High School Athletic Association.

The news is even more impressive because all of the Port Jefferson School District’s varsity teams for the 2017-18 school year have been awarded Scholar/ Athlete recognition. To receive Scholar/Athlete

Team recognition, a sports team’s average GPA for 75 percent of the roster must be greater than or equal to 90.

The culmination of both honors means that Earl L. Vandermeulen will be named a 2018 School of Distinction by the NYSPHSAA. Across the state, only about 20 schools are given this honor, and in Section XI only four schools were recognized as a School of Distinction last year.

“This honor clearly

demonstrates the ability of all of our student-athletes to show tremendous dedication to their academics, while balancing a busy athletic schedule,” said Dr. Danielle Turner, the district’s director of health, physical education and athletics. “This is a direct reflection of the commitment and support of our district administration, teachers, coaches and community as a whole.”

On Friday May 7th, Councilwoman Valerie M. Cartright was joined by Suffolk County Legislators Kara Hahn and Sarah Anker at the Comsewogue High School (CHS) Opioid Awareness Walk.

The walk was organized by the students focusing on the Comsewogue Opioids Project to combat the opioid crisis through awareness and education to students and community

members. The theme for the Comsewogue Opioids Project is “Be smart, don’t start,” and is focused on strengthening consciousness towards drug prevention in the school.

A community coalition of organizations also focusing on youth drug prevention was also present to show their support and provide resources.

The organizations that participated in the

Opioid Awareness Walk included the Port Jefferson Station Civic Association, the YMCA and the Town of Brookhaven Youth Bureau, who joined the students to offer services and programs related to drug and substance abuse issues.

CPR Awareness Week National CPR and AED Awareness Week – June 1st through 7th, 2018 – aims to raise awareness and increase the number of people who perform CPR in cardiac arrest emergencies. Each year, more than 350,000 outof-hospital cardiac arrests occur in the United States.

About 90 percent of people who suffer out-of-hospital cardiac arrests die. That’s why this year, the American Heart Association – the world’s leading voluntary organization dedicated to building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke – is highlighting the importance of bystander CPR. When a person has a cardiac arrest, survival depends on immediately receiving CPR from someone nearby. CPR, especially if performed immediately, can triple a cardiac arrest victim’s chance of survival. Higher bystander CPR rates have been linked to greater

survival rates after a cardiac arrest.

“Every second counts in cardiac arrest. Bystanders are absolutely critical in a cardiac arrest emergency.

They start the American Heart Association’s out-ofhospital chain of survival by calling 9-1-1 and then providing early CPR with an emphasis on chest compressions, and finding the closest AED” said [Dr. Russell Schiff, Director of Ambulatory Pediatric Cardiology at Northwell Health and Vice President of the American Heart Association’s Long Island Board of Directors “What if it were your mom or dad, your husband or wife, your sister or brother, your friend or someone standing next to you who was having a cardiac arrest? You would want to know what to do.

So, if you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse, you won’t be afraid, your actions can help.”

Only about 46 percent of people who experience an out-of-hospital

cardiac arrest receive the immediate help that they need before professional help arrives.

Many Americans don’t perform CPR because they don’t know what to do or they are afraid of hurting the person. To help increase the likelihood of people performing CPR in an emergency, the Association recommends Hands-Only CPR, which has two easy steps. Step 1: Call 911.

Step 2: Push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives.

The American Heart Association is marking this week here on Long Island by encouraging people to get trained in CPR to spotlight how lives can be saved if more Americans perform CPR and know how to use an AED. In 2007, the American Heart Association, in coalition with the American Red Cross and the National Safety Council, worked collaboratively to federally designate a National CPR and AED Awareness Week, which happens the first seven days of June each year.

In 2009, the American Heart Association launched a nationwide Hands-Only CPR campaign to raise awareness about this lifesaving skill. The campaign is supported nationally by an educational grant from the Anthem Foundation.

Since 2012, nearly 10.1 million people have been trained in Hands-Only CPR via events, training kiosks and video education with the Anthem Foundation’s support.

Starting in 2017, the American Heart Association partnered with leading organizations in the field of cardiac arrest to form the National Cardiac Arrest Collaborative, with the goal of promoting how to help in a cardiac arrest emergency.

Campsites Available Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone recently announced that more than 350 campsites are available at four Suffolk County campgrounds – all within close proximity to Shinnecock Hills Golf Club – during the week of the 118th United States Open Golf Championship. As the week of the U.S. Open approaches, campground availability is likely to change as reservations are made and campsites become filled.

In addition, a new Suffolk County website that features an upgraded online reservation system, campsite descriptions and locations, and information on county golf courses and camper rentals was also announced. A new Promo Code, USOPEN18, will provide visitors with access 9.875 x 5.437 to the Suffolk County online reservation system without having to pay for a non-residential Green

Key Card. Suffolk County has lifted the four night minimum restriction for reservations at Sear Bellows Campground in Hampton Bays during the week of the Golf Championship when reserved using the specialized Promo Code.

“There will be nearly 200,000 people converging upon Suffolk County next month to watch the best golfers in the world, and Suffolk County is prepared to provide a diverse and convenient list of accommodations for visitors staying the weekend,” said Suffolk County Executive Bellone.

“With over 8,000 hotel room nights expected to be booked for this event alone, we have made the necessary upgrades at our county campgrounds and parks to offer a convenient, accessible and affordable visit for golf fans.”

The Suffolk County Department of Parks and

Recreation has expedited campground preparations at over 750 campsites to ensure maximum availability for public use at Shinnecock Hills County Park, Sears Bellows County Park, Indian Island County Park, Cedar Point County Park, and Southaven County Park. The public improvements included clearing storm debris; setting up campsites for public use; performing tree work; and restoration of trails, roads other site projects.

For those considering traveling by boat, there will be 12 transitional boats slips available for rent during the week of the Golf Championship at the Shinnecock Marina, located less than four miles from Shinnecock Hills Golf Club.

There will also be approximately 8,000 hotel rooms booked along with an average of 3,500 temporary job opportunities.

If you worked on-site at the lab for 250 workdays between 1947 and 1993 for Associated Universities, the AEC/DOE, or a subcontractor, or were a researcher living on-site at Brookhaven National Lab, and were later diagnosed with one of 23 specified types of cancer, I will help you, or direct survivors, get a six figure entitlement award. Awards range from $150,000 to $400,000, and include worker medical benefits, including home health care. This is a taxpayer funded entitlement for DOE workers/survivors. It involves no liability to any employer and is not a lawsuit.

Since 2007 I’ve done this nationally for 3,000 sick DOE workers or their survivors. I have helped more than half of the 928 paid BNL families receive their cancer awards. Non-cancer respiratory and renal disease cases are also possible. Let me ask a few simple questions. I’ll give you a frank (and free) assessment as to whether I can help. I’m not a lawyer and this is no lawsuit. I am a national expert on EEOICPA entitlement. I unravel the frustrating red tape so you don’t have to. You get paid directly by the U.S. Treasury. My fee is so modest L.I. lawyers hire me to do the work for their own family members. No appeal fees. No fine print.

Osteoporosis than those who do not.

The problem is only 23 percent of eligible patients are scanned. The experts at the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) say that if you’re a woman over 65 or a man over 70 or if you’re over 50, postmenopausal and have risk factors for osteoporosis, you should

probably talk to your doctor or other health care provider about getting a bone density test, especially if you’ve never had one. Many doctors are learning more about this testing device at www. hologic.com.

Signs Of Unsafe Driving In Older Adults (NAPSI)—The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that there are more than 38 million drivers age 65 and older.

Age is not the only factor that can impact driving abilities, but it is an important one. There is evidence that most people experience age-related declines in physical and mental abilities. These changes—which can affect everything from vision to how quickly you can make decisions—influence how well you can drive.

They can also be difficult to address for yourself or with older people you know, since driving

often represents freedom, independence and control.

But transitioning from driving doesn’t mean you have to lose these things.

Your health care providers or Area Agency on Aging (www.eldercare.gov) can point you toward a range of transportation alternatives in the community. The first step toward finding those tools is recognizing when you might need them.

Signs that an Older Adult’s Driving Skills Need Testing So how do you know whether you or an older adult you know is developing difficulties as a driver? These issues can be warning signs that suggest

that an older driver may need to be tested or evaluated: • Getting lost in familiar areas • Ignoring traffic signs and signals • Becoming easily agitated or angered • Falling asleep or being unable to concentrate when driving • Reacting too slowly to dangerous situations • Forgetting or ignoring driving basics (like yielding to the right of way) • Having trouble judging distances.

Caring For Granite Countertops (NAPSI)—Granite countertops are the most popular option available when it comes to kitchen or bathroom remodeling.

They look great, they’re durable, but they can also cost thousands of dollars.

Granite requires special care and attention because it’s a natural stone. Here are a few tips to help you protect your investment: • Seal your countertops: According to the Marble Institute of America, an industry group, granite countertops should be sealed so that the stone is more resistant to dirt and spills. Check with the manufacturer or retailer about the best kind of sealer to use on food preparation areas.

• Be careful what

you clean with: Never use ammonia—based products-or cleaners containing vinegar, lemon or orange—on your granite countertops. Avoid abrasive cleaners such as dry or soft cleansers. Don’t use cleaning products that contain acid such as bathroom, grout, or tub and tile cleaners. Specialty granite cleaners can be used, but they can be expensive. There’s a way to stretch your dollars.

• Mind your budget: JAWS Glass & Hard Surface Cleaner (www.jawscleans. com) cleans granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, glass and even your flat-screen TV. It’s also non-toxic and costs less than most other cleaners because each

JAWS product is actually two bottles in one. (The cartridge refill is attached to the bottle.)

There are also some other basic preventive measures you can take to protect your granite countertops: • Use coasters: Place a coaster under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or citrus juices that can etch or dull the surface of many stone countertops.

• Use trivets or mats: They’ll protect your granite countertop from hot dishes and help avoid scratches.

Granite countertops can really add spark to a kitchen or bathroom.

Proper care will keep them looking beautiful.

Tips On Avoiding Financial Exploitation (NAPSI)—There’s good news for older Americans.

While financial abuse and scams are believed to cost seniors an estimated $3 billion annually, you can help prevent them and protect yourself.

For example, here are some steps you can take: • Plan your financial future with trusted family members, friends and professionals. If managing your daily finances is difficult, consider engaging a money manager.

• Talk with a lawyer about creating a durable power of attorney for asset management, a revocable or living will, and trust and health care advance directives.

• Don’t be pressured or intimidated into quick financial decisions or sign any documents you do not completely understand.

• Never provide personal information (Social Security number, credit card) over the phone unless you placed the call

and know with whom you are speaking.

• Tear up or shred credit card receipts, bank statements, solicitations and financial records before disposing of them.

For more tips on avoiding exploitation, or if you suspect you or someone you know is being exploited, call the Eldercare Locator at (800) 677-1116 or visit www.eldercare.gov.

( N A P S ) — Osteoporosis—bone loss— is a serious condition that half of all women and many men can expect to develop at some time in their lives.

Fortunately, it can be detected and treated. In fact, women who have a bone density scan have 35 percent fewer hip fractures

Students Shine at Math

With a combination of intellect and camaraderie, Port Jefferson Middle School students took part in the 2018 Suffolk County Elementary Mathematics Tournament and ranked fifth overall for the sixthgrade teams.

Michael Melikyan ranked ninth overall out of all of the induvial sixth-graders

across the county who came together for the event, held at Stony Brook University.

Port Jefferson’s team, consisting of Eric Chen, Michael Melikyan, Pratham Sethia, Nicholas Smirnov and Carman Stanton, competed against 300 students on 60 teams from Suffolk County schools.

“The competition consists of individual and team Olympiad-style questions that challenge the students, encourage their love of math and foster working together,” Megan Ryan, sixth-grade math teacher said. “They had a blast!”

Quick Thinking Quiz Bowl The Earl L. Vandermeulen High School Junior Varsity Academic Team took home a third-place trophy after competing in the final tournament of the Regional Quiz Bowl at Plainview-Old Bethpage High School.

Competing against more than 50 of the top academic teams from

Nassau and Suffolk counties, the students took part in the “Jeopardy”-like competition which covered a variety of academic disciplines and topics including art, history, poetry, literature and science.

The teamwork and motivation of junior Cameron Cohen, sophomore Kyle Onghai

Legislator Speaks

seniors Eric Tischer and Ben Zaltsman are to be commended.

“These students truly amaze me with the base of knowledge they possess,” teacher and coach Michel Krivosta said.

“Their individual quick-thinking skills and collaboration are admirable.”

Suffolk County Legislator Bridget Fleming was the featured speaker at the May Eastern Suffolk BOCES Community Legislative Committee Meeting.

Legislator Fleming captivated the audience as she spoke about the need for civic engagement in a world of fake news and social media.

Fleming, an attorney, referred to the U.S. Supreme Court deposition regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election process (The New York Times published the link to the deposition and

print copies were available for meeting attendees).

Fleming discussed facts and information outlined in the deposition regarding the extensive organized tampering that occurred in the recent election, as well as in other major political events worldwide. She emphasized the need for citizens to remain watchful when looking for the truth concerning information in today’s digital era. To do so, she recommends always searching for the primary source of news found online and on social media to confirm credibility, and

to teach children to do the same.

The committee meets monthly during the school year and is for students and adults interested in learning about issues impacting school districts and their communities, and how to advocate for positive change. All meetings are open to the public and begin at 7 p.m. at the Gary D. Bixhorn Technical Center, located at 350 Martha Avenue in Bellport. The new schedule of meetings will be available in late August.

Above and Bee-Yond Longwood Middle School sixth-grade teacher Talia Santarpia has been named Applebee’s ‘Above and “Bee” yond’ Teacher of the Year thanks to an inspiring 500-word essay from her student Giana Di Ieso.

The annual contest recognizes one deserving teacher in Nassau and Suffolk Counties as

nominated by their students. Students submit an essay in person at their local Applebee’s explaining why their teacher deserves to be Teacher of the Year.

Giana’s essay focused on Ms. Santarpia’s compassion, leadership and dedication to students.

“A teacher is someone that is supposed to educate you,” said Giana. “Miss

Santarpia is amazing at being an educational teacher but has so many other qualities that only special teachers have. She is someone you can go to for anything, and she will always say something encouraging. She’s very understanding and will donate all of her free time to talk with us. She makes school fun.”

Chef Competition Congratulations to the winning teams of the Iron Chef Competition held at the Islip Career Center.

The Islip Career Center is an Eastern Suffolk BOCES school that provides special career education services to students with special needs.

The skills students acquire may help them to obtain entry-level employment in certain industries. The assignment for students in this Introduction to Cooking

Program required them to perform numerous tasks designed to teach life and employment skills, both of which promote independence.

Those exercises included sourcing recipes online; developing a recipe theme with corresponding table signage and décor; adhering to a budget; following all recipe instructions; preparing the entrée, side dishes and condiments; and being able to answer judges’

questions. All recipes were assessed by a panel of school staff members and points were awarded based on various criteria, such as taste and presentation.

Said Chef Michael Frankson, Introduction to Cooking teacher, “Projectbased learning, such as this assignment, teaches indispensable life skills, as well as proficiency for possible entry-level employment in the food service industry.”

Hearing Help Online

SUFFOLK ZONE 6 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MAY 30, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

(NAPSI) Better hearing may be at your fingertips.

No, don’t stick your fingers in your ears. Put your hands on your computer to access free, easy-to-use online tools designed to help you live well with hearing loss.

A new suite of online tools makes it easier to manage everyday communication and important decisions about your hearing.

Developed by the nonprofit Ida Institute, Ida Telecare is a combination of interactive tools and engaging videos that help you identify your communication needs and concerns. These tools can help you get the most from time spent with your hearing care professional and provide ongoing

support post-appointment.

“Research consistently shows that people who self-manage their hearing loss experience greater satisfaction with hearing care and hearing technologies,” explains Ida Institute Managing Director Lise Lotte Bundesen.

The site’s Living Well section helps prepare you for appointments by encouraging you to think about your needs and concerns with a series of open-ended questions.

My Turn to Talk lets you prioritize the people with whom you communicate.

Web-based drag-anddrop technology lets you create circles of those “most important,” “very important” and “less

important” people. A series of prompts can help you organize your thoughts.

The Everyday Life with Hearing Loss part provides tips to help you manage conversations, simple strategies to alert others to your hearing loss, ways to improve communication, and ideas on day-to-day interactions.

The Storytelling Videos offer insight and inspiration from others’ experiences.

You can save notes and completed sessions to your computer and e-mail them to your audiologist or print them out to bring to your appointment. Then, you can work together to map out the strategies and goals that are best for you.

Finding Resources For Older Adults

(NAPSI)—If you or someone you care about is an older adult, you should know about the Eldercare Locator. The Eldercare Locator, a public service of the Administration on Aging, an agency of the U.S. Administration for Community Living is a nationwide service that connects older adults and their caregivers with

information on aging services.

Callers to the Eldercare Locator receive information about federal, state and local services such as transportation, inhome supportive services, and health and wellness programs.

Information Specialists are there to help guide callers to the correct resources.

Teachers Honored Two Longwood High School teachers have been recognized for their professional contributions to students from the Suffolk Chapter of the New York State Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (NYSAHPERD) Suffolk Zone.

High School Physical Education Teacher Jefferson Cipp received the Suffolk Zone Adaptive Physical Education Teacher of the Year for his excellence in teaching and overall performance in the disciplines of physical education. He was initially hired as a teaching assistant in 1997 and was appointed a physical education teacher in 2004.

In addition to teaching a variety of physical education activities to our

special needs students at the high school, he is also the head varsity football coach. As part of the adaptive physical education program, he serves on the Annual Review Committee and works with the numerous events including the Victory Games, Suffolk County Special Olympics, and Best Buddies.

High School Department Chairperson for Health and Physical Education Shawn Dillon has been named the Suffolk Zone Recreation/Adventure Teacher of the Year for his outstanding contributions to the Outdoor Education Program. He began his teaching career in the District in 1999 as a physical education and health teacher. Mr. Dillon was appointed Department

Chair for Health and Physical Education in 2004 and has created several new electives and course offerings in physical education including the outdoor education program.

Under his leadership, the program continues to grow each year with new activities and equipment. Mr. Dillon is currently a club adviser for Outdoor Education and the Director of Leadership Through Adventure Camp.

“Both Jeff and Shawn are dedicated professionals who work tirelessly on behalf of the students at Longwood,” said Mrs. Curiale.

“They both make a positive impact on the physical education program at the High School and continue to lead others by example.”

You can call the Eldercare Locator at (800) 677-1116 Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 8:00 pm ET to speak with a knowledgeable Information Specialist, or you can visit the website, www.eldercare.gov to find local resources on a broad range of topics.

TEACHERS RECOGNIZED - High School Department Chair for Health and Physical Education Shawn Dillon, Director of Health, Physical Education and Athletics Gina Curiale, and Physical Education Teacher Jefferson Cipp.
