Babylon School Board lays out plans for the new school year Superintendent Manza sets goal to reestablish the district’s distinguished alumni award

By Alena Berenblatt The Babylon Board of Education is looking ahead to the 2024-2025 school year by welcoming new hires, planning new initiatives, and preparing for the year to come.

At its July 8 reorganization and regular business meeting, Schools Superintendent Carisa Manza announced that the district’s new theme for the upcoming school year will be Together We Rise, following up on last year’s theme—Advancing Together.

“Based on feedback from the board, faculty, and staff, I can honestly say that we did advance together, through our collective partnership,” said Manza. “We will continue our efforts forward and upward this year.” She added that the board of education and the administrative team will use the new theme to identify shared goals “to propel our educational program to new heights.”

Manza also announced plans to resurrect the district’s distinguished alumni award, which she said she hopes to present in October during Babylon Junior Senior High School’s homecoming weekend.

According to its mission statement, “The Babylon Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame honors alumni whose deeds and character exemplify outstanding achievement in their life’s work and/or service to their communities.

Recipients of this honor will stand as shining examples of Babylon graduates.”

The award was established in 2017 and was presented until 2021. To date, 15 Babylon graduates have been

awarded this honor. Nomination forms can be found on the district website. The deadline for nominations is July 31.

The school board also: •elected Linda Jurs and Donna Noesi for a second term as president and vice president, respectively.

•rescinded the excessing of three teachers in May 2023: elementary teachers Gina Connelly and Hannah McGarvey, and part-time art teacher Cristina Calvano.

•recognized four new hires: probationary social worker Taylor Longo, who will replace longtime social worker Elaine DiGiacomo, who retired in June; probationary science teacher for Babylon Junior Senior High School Heather Adamski, and probationary special education teachers for Babylon Junior Senior High School Hana Lepore and Conor Smith.

In addition, the board approved Dr. Angela Austin as an administrative consultant working as a director of special education leave replacement. Austin, who has 20 years of experience in special education, holds a bachelor of science degree in special education, a master of science degree in administrative education, and a doctorate in administrative leadership, with a focus on special education, transition planning, and at-risk youth.

The next board of education meeting will be on August 19 at 7 p.m. in the Babylon Junior Senior High School Library.

By Christie Leigh Babirad Diving for a mere three years after his parents signed him up for a Town of Babylon summer class, Arthur Palladino of Lindenhurst is only 11 but is now one of the top springboard and platform divers in the U.S, for his age group. He has qualified for the AAU (Amateur Athletic Union) National team, prequalified for the semi-finals in all events and will be competing in Rome later this month.

“I was really happy when I found out that I made the National team because I worked really hard to make it,” said Arthur, known as “AJ.” Hoping to make it to the next Olympic trials, his diving career began Diver AJ Palladino in a class offered through the town’s summer program when he was 8-1/2 years old.

After watching their son’s growth over a year, his mother, Rachel, and father, Arthur, connected with a coach in Westchester who attended dive meets.

This connection led to their son to his first competition at the YMCA Nationals in Ft. Lauderdale in March 2023, where he placed first in 5-meter platform tower, 2nd in 3-meter springboard and 3rd in 1-meter springboard.

His mother said that when she saw her son competing at that first national competition, she knew

for sure that he something special. “All the other boys had much more diving experience than him and he placed top 3 in all the events,” she said. “He continues to impress us and his coaches with his rapid growth and ability to perform more complex dives each time he gets out there.”

AJ said it’s the competition and meeting new people who share his passion that he enjoys most about the sport.

“I like having the motivation to learn new dives and after my first meet I knew I wanted to try harder and compete more and more,” said AJ, adding that his favorite competition thus far has been the AAU Red White and Blue Nationals in Texas, where he took home 3 gold medals and received the honor of joining the National team, representing the U.S. in Rome this month. “And I met so many wonderful people at that competition,” said AJ. “It was amazing.”

After AJ competes in Rome, he will be heading straight to the 2024 USA Nationals In West Virginia and has a goal of competing in the next Olympic trials in 2028 where he will be just old enough to

do so at the age of 14.

“I really enjoy watching him do something he loves and excels in,” said his mother. “His experiences have built so much character and it’s exciting to watch his passion, commitment and achievements.”

AJ trains four days a week and in his free time he said that he likes to hang out with his family and friends and jump on his trampoline.

He recently graduated from Harding Avenue Elementar y School and will be starting at Linden hurst

POLICE BLOTTER The following incidents have been reported by the Suffolk County Police and other local police and fire departments.

LINDENHURST MAN INDICTED FOR PROMOTING A SEXUAL PERFORMANCE BY A CHILD Suffolk County: Taner Ocal, 22, of Lindenhurst, was indicted for promoting a sexual performance by a child, and related charges. Ocal allegedly contacted children as young as 10 years old through social media, and solicited sexually explicit images and videos from them.

“We have filed charges in this case based on evidence referred to us by the Forth Worth Police Department,” said S.C. District Attorney Ray Tierney.

“Due to the ongoing investigation of this case and the age of the alleged victims, we are limited in specific details we can share at this time, but suffice to say, that when it comes to the investigation of child exploitation causes, law enforcement is watching.”

According to investigators, on June 8, 2024, Suffolk County Police received information that

Ocal had allegedly contacted two 10-year-old girls in Texas through the social media app Instagram and asked them to film themselves dancing. Ocal allegedly used his Instagram account to pose as a dance instructor and contact female children.

When Ocal asked them to send explicit photos of themselves, the children blocked his account and told their parents. The parents then reported his alleged actions to the Fort Worth Police Department.

After they confirmed Ocal’s location in Suffolk County, the Fort Worth Police Department referred the investigation to the Suffolk County Police Department.

On June 12, 2024, Suffolk police tracked down Ocal and were able to contact with him to download the contents in his cellular phone. During their investigation, approximately 22 images and videos of alleged child sexual abuse were recovered from the phone.

Notably, police determined that several original images had been intentionally deleted prior to their search of the phone. Ocal was arrested on June 19, (Continued on Back Page)

Middle School this fall.

“We are extremely proud of him,” said his mother, who added that what is particularly rewarding for her to see is her son’s sportsmanship. “He’s so supportive. I really enjoy watching him dive but also enjoy seeing the positive interactions he has with his fellow divers.”

As far as advice AJ would give to anyone who is trying find their passion or keep going with what they enjoy, he said, “Don’t give up. Try harder every day, and don’t be afraid to try different things because you might like it.”

AJ is currently looking for sponsors. His mother said that with these competitions there is a lot of travel involved and she and her husband would like to continue to help AJ go as far as he possibly can.

If a company is interested in sponsoring AJ, you can reach Rachel Palladino at rachiep22@gmail. com.

DRAWING CONCLUSIONS:

By Kevin Eastwood

EDITORIAL

A call for civility in the face of political violence The attempted assassination of Donald Trump on Saturday, the tragic death of Corey Comperatore, and the injuries inflicted upon others at the rally serve as a harrowing wake-up call to our nation. We now stand at a crossroads where our collective response will define us. Will we uphold the values of life, national pride, and human dignity, or will we allow political discord to unravel the fabric of our society, replacing understanding with animosity and common ground with division?

We have seen these patterns before, too many times. The bloodshed of our past continues to echo through the halls of our democracy, reminding us of the fragility of our principles. The architects of our nation—those who crafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution—were far from uniform in their views. They debated fiercely, even over the role of political parties. Haunted by the bitter divisiveness that had plagued England and sparked bloody civil wars, they sought to create a democracy founded on ideas, not enmity.

Alexander Hamilton warned of political parties as a “most fatal disease” threatening any government, while James Madison and Hamilton, in the Federalist Papers, argued for a “well-constructed Union” designed to mitigate and control the violence of faction. Their experiences and fears were deeply etched into the foundation of our republic, a solemn reminder of the dangers posed by unchecked political strife.

Thomas Jefferson, writing from France in 1824, acknowledged that “Men by their constitutions are naturally divided

into two parties.” He recognized that differing opinions were an intrinsic part of our democracy and that political parties could serve as a venue for debate and discussion, not as instruments of violence.

Yet here we are, mired in bitterness and anger, increasingly resembling a civil conflict where the lines of division are drawn not merely by political ideology but by an erosion of civility itself. As inheritors of the democratic vision our forefathers so painstakingly crafted, we are charged with the responsibility to transcend these failures and embrace the ideals of mutual respect and unity.

We extend our deepest sympathies to Donald Trump, wishing him a swift recovery, and we grieve for Corey Comperatore, a firefighter and devoted family man whose life was cut short, as well as for the injured and, yes, even the young shooter whose heart and mind were poisoned by the vitriol that has come to overshadow our national discourse.

President Joe Biden aptly reminded us on Sunday night that while disagreement is a cornerstone of American democracy, it must never descend into violence. "Politics should never devolve into a ‘killing field,’" he said. “We’re neighbors, we’re friends, co-workers, citizens, and most importantly, we are fellow Americans.” In this pivotal moment, let us heed these words and find the resolve to stand together, to bridge our divides with empathy and respect.

Let us hope and pray that we can reclaim the vision of our forefathers and rebuild a nation where discourse is civil and our common humanity is cherished above all else.

PUBLIC COMMENTARY

Seeking solutions for problems is more productive than complaining

By Bryan Golden Is complaining an effective strategy for solving problems? Will complaining improve your situation? Do others enjoy listening to you complain? The answer to all three questions is no. Then why do people complain?

There are a number of reasons a person complains.

He or she may be looking for sympathy, assistance, support, or just letting off steam. There are also people who are habitual whiners who are never satisfied or content.

In the case of sympathy, there is an erroneous assumption that if enough other people feel sorry for them, it will somehow improve the complainer's situation. All that will be accomplished is that others will grow tired of their moaning and give them a wide berth. Everyone has their own problems and very few people want to spend their discretionary time listening to the tales of woe of others.

Sympathy seekers tend to dwell on their problems rather than seeking solutions. When potential solutions are presented, they invariably find fault with and summarily dismiss them. These complainers seek attention and monopolize conversations. They look for opportunities to show how their plight is worse than everyone else's.

Spending time with sympathy seekers can be draining.

They are consumed with their own situation and show little or no interest in other people. Regardless of how good you may feel, a gripe session with a sympathy seeker will depress your mood.

Some complainers are looking for assistance in solving a problem. In this case they are interested in advice that will lead to a solution. The danger here is that they will indiscriminately seek guidance from anyone. In their attempt to

Following bad advice can exacerbate a problem. Advice seekers that jump from one bad suggestion to another will become frustrated as they fail to solve their problem. The result is the erroneous conclusion that their situation has no solution.

Complainers in search of advice must be very selective in whom they approach.

Only those who have successfully solved similar problems or who have appropriate expertise should be sought out.

When the right person is identified, they should be asked for advice directly rather than complaining to them.

Perhaps a complainer is looking for support. They may be overwhelmed by unexpected events or overloaded with responsibilities. This type of complainer is likely looking for help rather than advice. If you are so inclined, offer to lend a hand.

Even when they are helped out, some complainers always wind up in another crisis situation. Helping them out again will only improve their situation temporarily. Without a change in strategy, they will soon become immersed in another crisis.

Complainers who are incessant whiners find fault with virtually everything. They complain about their lives, other people's lives, the weather, politics, religion, society, etc. Everything they comment on is flawed. All of life is tainted. Their glass is always half empty and probably leaking. These people are not happy unless they are unhappy.

Whiners will never be satisfied. They don't want sympathy, solutions, or help. They just want to complain. These people will never change and their minds are closed to new ideas. Your only option is to limit exposure to their griping.

Complaining is unproductive and destructive. If you have problems, find solutions. If you need help, ask. Occasional complaining to seek understanding or let off steam is ok. But don't make it a way of life or a topic of every conversation.

Ducks pursue second-half turnaround

By TONY BELLISSIMO tbellissimo@liherald.com

Gutted by roster departures and injuries, the Long Island Ducks completed the first half of the Atlantic League baseball season July 5 with a 30-33 record, 13 games behind the North Division-winning York Revolution.

First-year Ducks manager Lew Ford, the franchise’s all-time hits leader with 1,036 and a key member of three championship teams, witnessed plenty of second-half turnarounds in his 13 seasons and is hopeful for another.

“I try to look at the positives and so far we’ve helped eight guys sign to play either in a Major League organization or professionally overseas,” Ford said. “We’ve had a ton of turnover and some injuries, but I like our roster entering the second half.”

The offense, led by outfielder Tyler Dearden and first baseman Frank Schwindel, did its part through the first 63 games averaging 5.25 runs. Dearden and Schwindel finished first and third in the league in batting, hitting .361 and .353, respectively, Dearden, who spent his first six professional seasons in the Boston Red Sox organization and played at the Triple-A level in 2023, appeared in 55 first-half games and cracked 12 homers with 46 RBIs and 37 runs.

His contract was purchased July 2 by the Minnesota Twins organization.

Schwindel, who has 145 games of Major League experience, appeared in 39 games and belted 11 homers and drove in 38 runs in the first half.

“Those guys were our MVPs in the first half,” Ford said of Dearden and Schwindel.

The most accomplished player Ford has penciled into the lineup is outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr., who appeared in 1,182 MLB games and won a World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2018. He totaled 109 homers, 449 RBIs and 69 stolen bases over an 11-yer career.

A lower body injury forced Bradley Jr. to miss 35 games thus far. When healthy, he’s raked to the tune of a .360 average, 7 homers and 22 RBIs. Catcher Chance Sisco, with nearly 200 MLB games under his belt, hit a team-leading 14 homers in the first half. Ivan Castillo has been steady with the glove and batted .298 with 6 homers, 23 RBIs and 7 steals in 42 first-half games.

Improving a team ERA of 5.34 and a league-worst .280 opponents’ batting average will go a long way in the Ducks’ chances of getting back to the playoffs. By far their most impressive arm to date is reliever Ramon Santos, who carries a 0.71 ERA with 3 wins (one shy of team leader Stephen Woods Jr.) and 45 strikeouts in 25 innings.

“We have to pitch better and the staff knows that,” Ford said. “They’re all capable.”

Ducks reach 9 million fans all-time

The Ducks welcomed their record 9 millionth fan through the gates of Fairfield Properties Ballpark June 18 prior to their

Tyler Dearden, signed by the Minnesota Twins July 2, hit .361 with 12 homers and 46 RBIs in 55 games with the Ducks. game against the Staten Island FerryHawks.

“This is another special day in the history of this great franchise,” Ducks General Manager Sean Smith said. “Reaching 9 million fans is a testament to the incredible support from our fan base since we first opened the gates in 2000 and to the fun and excitement Ducks baseball continues to provide Long Islanders every year.”

Five-year-old Ethan Oldham from Islip entered through the West Gate at 5:56 p.m. with his mother, Katie; father, Craig; and baby brother, Nolan. In doing so, Ethan became the 9 millionth fan in franchise history to attend a Ducks game in their home ballpark.

Long Island became the first club in Atlantic League history to reach the milestone attendance figure despite having begun play in the league’s third year of existence (2000). The Ducks are also currently the league’s all-time leader in sold out crowds with 707, have led the league in attendance 17 times and currently lead the league in 2024 attendance as well with an average of more than 4,500.

Ethan was recognized during a VIP onfield ceremony for being the 9 millionth fan.

Sheldon Ellison, General Manager of the Levittown P.C. Richard & Son location, presented the lucky fan with a $1,000 gift card to use at any of the Ducks charter sponsor’s locations. In addition, the Ducks presented Ethan with a jersey featuring “9 Million” as the name on the back and the number “24”, representing this season. Ethan threw out a ceremonial first pitch, received a 2024 Ducks team-signed baseball, and he and his family were upgraded to VIP tickets for the night.

By Christie Leigh Babirad Deborah Ann Walsh, a stay-at-home mom who grew up in Babylon and was described by her family as someone with a big heart who had empathy toward all living things, died on July 4, 2024 at 70 years old.

Mrs. Walsh was born on April 2, 1954 in Syracuse to Phyllis and Louis McNeil. When she was 7 years old, the family moved to Babylon where she attended Babylon High School.

It was at Babylon High School that she met the future love of her life, Michael Walsh. Though high school sweethearts, their futures took them in different paths following graduation; both moved away, married and had children, only to reunite in the fall of 2001. Mrs. Walsh’s daughter Stephanie Widrig spoke about the firs time she met Michael.

It was through a hope chest of memories in the living room of her childhood home. Mrs. Walsh would take out old photos showing a very handsome young man, telling her daughters “this is my Michael.”

Mrs. Walsh was told, incorrectly, that Michael died in a car crash. But following

her divorce, she reached out to people who knew him and had told her that, in fact, he was still alive and living in Florida.

Eventually the two reconnected. “Michael told my mom that he had never stopped loving her in the years that they were apart,” said Stephanie, who later met Michael. “I could tell he was different by the way he looked at my mom and the way he respected her,” she said. “They really loved each other a lot,” added Jennifer.

When raising her daughters, Mrs. Walsh did not have a lot of money, but she instilled in them the importance in giving to those less fortunate. “We never had a lot but she would make platters of food for the neighbors who had less,” said Jennifer, who added that her mom was always someone who was there to save a bunny or baby bird.

Her daughters also remember how their mother would take them to visit the nursing home and spend time with the residents there. Mrs. Walsh was also artistically inclined and passed down those attributes to her daughters and grandchildren. She would do pen and ink drawings and water coloring and also journaled and wrote short stories.

“She always improvised,” said Stephanie, adding that it wasn’t uncommon for her and her sisters to come home to newly painted kitchen cabinets with flowers drawn on them. She even added a small extension on their home.

“She graphed out an extension and actually built it herself,” said Stephanie. Witty, she never took herself too seriously, and was known for her gardening and cooking, especially pasta, eggplant parmigiana and homemade apple pies in the fall. She was an avid beach goer and loved her town Babylon. But at the end of the day, it was family and love that came first for her, said her daughters. That and the deep connection she felt for Babylon town. It was where her “foundation” was and continues to be and the only place on earth where she felt at home,” said Stephanie. In one of her last parting sentiments, Stephanie said her mother told them simply to “carry on the love.”

Mrs. Walsh is predeceased by her mother and father, Phyllis and Louis McNeil.

She is survived by her husband Michael of Sebastian, Florida; her daughters Jennifer Knapp and her husband John of Dayton

8 tips to make for a fun day at the water park When summertime temperatures are hot and climbing, people look for ways to cool off. Trips to the beach or a pool often top the list of ideas, but water parks also make for great places to spend a hot summer day.

Water parks may be stand-alone facilities in town or components of larger amusement parks. They often feature a combination of wading pools, slides, lazy rivers, and splash zones to cater to visitors of all ages.

Water parks can be great family fun for those who do their homework and prepare for visits accordingly.

Certain tips can make the experience that much more enjoyable.

1. Pack light. Belongings can be tricky when it comes to water parks because most items cannot get wet. Leaving them beside rides also leaves you vulnerable to theft. Bring only the essentials and plan to stash car keys, mobile phones and minimal cash in lockers.

Lockers in many modern facilities are paid for with your credit card and work by entering a self-generated code. This way there are no keys or locks to worry about.

2. Bring three bags. Bring a backpack or a tote bag that is filled with a change of clothes. Unless you dry off for the last hour by walking around the park, you likely will not want to get in your vehicle in your swimsuit. Leave the clothes in the aforementioned locker. Stash a plastic shopping bag or garbage bag inside the backpack, as it can hold wet swimsuits and other damp items after you’ve changed. Bring a mesh or breathable shoulder bag that can hold a few essentials, like towels and water bottles. The mesh will enable air flow so that you don’t end up with a sopping, mildew-riddled towel by the end of the day.

3. Wear comfortable swim gear. It’s hard to get out of the sun at a water park, so covering up is key. A

rash guard or swim shirt can be paired with swim trunks or one- or two-piece swimsuits.

Avoid any swimsuits that have flimsy straps, as they’re more likely to come undone while crashing through waves or during high speed water slide excursions.

4. Plan locker trips strategically. Aim to visit your locker at least two or three times if you’re spending a full day at the water park. This gives you chances to reapply sunscreen (which you should always wear at the park) and grab a few dollars for snacks and beverages. Remember to stay hydrated while out in the sun, even if you are in the water most of the time.

5. Utilize water shoes. Water park pavement can get hot and slippery. Water shoes are ideal so that you do not injure your feet. Many rides prohibit flip flops, but secured water shoes are allowed.

6. Arrive early. Try to get to the water park shortly after it opens. Crowds will be sizable on hot days. You don’t want to waste all of your time waiting in line for rides. Plus, the earlier in the day you arrive, the less steamy and the greater chance you will find parking near the entrance.

7. If budget allows, rent a cabana. Some parks rent cabanas. A cabana can be a family’s home base and a place to cool off and relax. For an extra cost, some ca-

banas come with food service.

8. Have extra adults on hand. When the kids outnumber the adults, it can be tricky keeping eyes on everyone, especially in larger attractions like wave pools.

Plus, there’s bound to be some kids who are more adventurous than others. An extra adult or two can wait with children who do not want to go on particular slides or other rides.

Water parks are entertaining ways to cool off on hot days. Following certain tips can make visits even more fun.

Parliament Place in North Babylon holds moving up ceremonies

By Gayle Wernham Parliament Place Elementary School in North Babylon held its fifth grade graduation ceremony under the shade of several trees on Fri., June 21.

Parents, grandparents, and various family members gathered on the lawn of the school that has been educating students since 1961.

“Fifth graders, as you transition from elementary school to the junior high school, it may seem difficult, but I am here to tell you that you are ready,” Dr. Kenneth E. Graham, Superintendent of Schools told the graduates.

Raffles, lottery tickets, and goodies sold by the fifth-grade committee added to the fun of attending the graduation.

Drew E. Olsen, the school’s principal chose a line from the movie, Forest Gump, telling the students that “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get.” He quickly added, however that when students work hard and are focused on their goals, they know exactly what they will get in the future.. “Anything in this world is attainable.

Focus, work hard, and reach your goals,” he said.

“It’s always a great day for graduation!

It’s an honor to see the students grow up,” said fifth grade teacher Gregg Morisie.

The ceremony concluded with students singing “Ready To Go.” There were claps and smiles as The Triple C awards for character, courage, and commitment, The Anna Maria Montuori Award, and The Bulldog Award were presented. The awardees are as follows; The Triple C Awards were given to Yvana Balde, Santiago Ortiz Garcia , Sophia Kaur, Artem Postolatii, Tyler Roberts, Aurelius Shaffee, Alexander Joseph and Torns, Nicholas Velez. The Anna Maria Montuori Award for Literacy was given to Konnor Dorcely, Alishba Khan, Chase Nolan, and Jake Lopez Zepeda. The Bulldog Awards were given to Piero Simon Espinoza, Muhammad Faizan, Giovanna Lewis, and Aidan Negron.
