Courtesy Cincinnati Reds CINCINNATI REDS PITCHER Justin Dunn, who grew up in Freeport, returned from an absence of over a year to face the Mets at Citi Field.
Freeport native Justin Dunn couldn’t have dreamed of a better week to return to Major League Baseball. Out of MLB action for over a year due to a right shoulder strain, the 26-year-old pitcher, a first-round draft pick of the New York Mets in 2016, finally made his debut on the Citi Field mound on Aug. 8. Following six rehab starts at the Triple-A level, Dunn was recalled to the big leagues and made his Cincinnati Reds debut that same night against some of his closest friends, including Pete Alonso, who was drafted by the Mets in the second round in 2016. “God is good,” said Dunn, who gave up three runs in 4 2/3 innings but held Alonso, the 2019 National League Rookie of the Year, hitless in three at-bats and struck him out once. Dunn threw 70 pitches and allowed five hits, walked two and struck out two in the Reds’ 5-1 loss. “It was a pretty special moment,” he said. “It was a long road back.” Playing for the Louisville Bats, the Reds’ Triple-A affiliate, since July 1, Dunn learned

But the confi dence instilled by his parents and his college also got a boost from someone who was part of his childhood. “A big impact from Freeport was that my Little League coach gave me the mindset to believe I can do whatever I want,” Valen zuela said. “By high school, I was already studying and work

The last time Dunn had pitched in a major league game was June 17, 2021, as a member of the Seattle Mariners, who traded him to the Reds in March as part of a five-player deal. Seattle acquired Dunn from the Mets in December 2018 in a six-player trade that brought Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz to New York.

Dunn’s road back led to the Citi Field mound of his promotion to the Reds two days before he was scheduled to pitch against the Mets, and was soon on a plane bound for New York. He called home and told his parents, Donna and Ed Dunn, who months earlier had correctly predicted when their son would be back in the majors. “They called it,” Justin said of his parents’ forecast. “I thought for a minute about not saying anything, and sur prising them by taking an Uber from the airport to Freeport, but I was afraid they’d find out through social media. So my dad picked me up at JFK on Sun day, and I met up with the team later at the hotel.” Dunn said he needed 56 tickets to accommodate fami ly members and friends at Citi Field. They all sat in the lower level, behind the Cin cinnati dugout. “To look up and see my parents, girlfriend and everyone else in the stands was pretty incredible,” Dunn said. “They gave me a lot of energy.”
A FIRST-ROUND PICK by
Dunn, who as a youngster played in the Baldwin Little League as well as trav el baseball for the Freeport Red Devils, never pitched for the Mets. He made 25 starts for the Mariners over three sea sons, going 5-4 with an ERA below 4.00 and 92 strikeouts in 102 innings. Following Cincinnati’s three-game series in New York, the Reds headed to Iowa, where they faced the Chicago Cubs in the MLB Field of Dreams Game Aug. 11 in Dyersville, a town popularized by the 1989 movie of the same name starring Kevin Costner, James Earl Jones and Ray Liotta. Dunn said it was one of the best experiences of his life.“‘Field of Dreams’ is such an iconic movie, and the inti macy of the whole thing reminded me a lot of Cooper stown,” he said, referring to the experience of playing at Doubleday Field, near the Baseball Hall of Fame. “Walking out of the cornfields was really awesome.” Dunn said that staying healthy, first and foremost, and staying in a Cincinna ti rotation in need of reinforcement fol lowing the recent trades of Luis Castillo and Tyler Mahle to Seattle and the Min nesota Twins, respectfully, are his imme diate goals. “I’m feeling good,” he said. “I want to finish the year healthy and have a normal offseason.” Cincinnati Reds the Mets 2016, Justin Dunn had 56 guests at his first appearance the mound at Citi Field.

THE BALDWIN UNION Free School District was given a check for $450,000 from the Assembly at the Aug. 10 education board meeting. GRIFFIN TOLD THE board and audience that she had obtained additional funding for the expansion of mental wellnesshealthcenters in Baldwin schools. performance.attendanceincreasebeenthesecentershealthchool-basedlikehaveshowntostudentand
Baldwin schools got a financial boost on Aug. 10, when Assemblywoman Judy Griffin presented a check to the Baldwin Union Free School District Board of Education for $450,000. The money will help create well ness centers in the middle school and Shubert Elemen tary School to support students’ mental health. A center at the Baldwin High School has been in development for three years, spearheaded by Superinten dent Shari Camhi. Griffin secured the addi tional funding from the 2022-23 stateAtbudget.themeeting, Griffin told the board and residents how important mental health is in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. “It is now more important than ever to give young learners all the resourc es they need to not only excel but thrive and pursue their dreams,” she said. “This additional $450,000 in funding from the Assembly will allow for both Baldwin Middle School and Shubert Elementary School to expand their health care facilities and provide the space for age-appropriate mental health services.
Griffin had the support of Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie in securing the funds as part of the budget — “a budget which invested in the future of Baldwin’s chil dren,” Griffin said, “with $750,000 for Baldwin’s Univer sal pre-K, nearly $28 million in Foundation Aid, an increase of 28.2 percent over last year, and increasing total aid by over $6.5 million, up 19.2 percent over last year’sHavingfunding.”wellness centers at every level of school will benefit generations of students, Griffin said. “We are making an important statement as a com munity about our shared commitment to our children’s health, wellness and safety, both inside and out,” she said.Inside and out is right, Camhi added. “We’re calling it a wellness center because we’re not framing it in the negative,” she said. “It’s all about being well, whether it’s physically well or emotionally well.” Camhi explained that a center at the high school has been in development for three years, and plans have finally been approved, which wasn’t an easy journey. “We received multi ple promises of funding for a wellness cen ter for the high school, and it takes a while to go through the bureaucracy to get the funding and plans approved,” she said. “We now have to go to our architects and create the space. We’re kind of relentless, so we’ll get it done as soon as the powers that be allow paperwork to go through.”
Once the centers in all three schools are completed, the district will collab orate with the Nassau University Medical Center on the use of an NUMC psychiatric social worker and a therapist. Discussions with the hospital about staffing took place before the pandemic, so the details have not yet been worked out. All of the medical profession als, however, are expected to spe cialize in the care of children. At last week’s meeting, Camhi hugged and thanked Griffin, say ing she always accepts her calls with glee. “She is an incredible person and an incredible assem blywoman,” Camhi said, “and we’re very blessed to have her here represent(ing) Baldwin.”

Managing Expectations
HERALDFREEPORT—202218,August 8
The start of a new school year is like a fresh box of crayons full of possibilities. Families can take advan tage of this clean slate by establishing some new organizing routines. Think ahead. Mornings are cha otic in most households with schoolaged children. Consider handling as many daytime preparations as possi ble the night before. Lay out clothes. Pack lunches. Set out the breakfast dishes and cereal. Pack backpacks. Make systems kid-friendly, so young helpers can feel involved, and save mom and dad some time in the process. For example, carve out a spot on a lower shelf of the pantry for lunch boxes and lunch-making supplies. Then make children respon sible for putting away their empty lunch boxes at the end of the school day, or even packing their own lunch. Tackle school paperwork. Make a habit of sorting through children’s backpacks with them the same day they come home. Allot time after school, when you arrive home from work, or after dinner, depending on your family’s schedule. Use a tiered letter sorter or filing system with des ignated slots for each child’s papers, and an “A.S.A.P.” space for teachers’ notes, permission slips and anything else that requires immediate atten tion, that’s not handled through your school portal. For schoolwork and artwork you want to keep, try a two-step approach. First, purge unwanted items as soon as they come in the door. Collect the possible keepers in a storage bin or wheeled cart with col or-coded drawers that allow for easy separation by child or project type. Go through stored items at regular inter vals, perhaps once a month or once a quarter. Keep in mind, the more you accumulate, the easier it will be to pare down, as the best pieces will stand out from the crowd. Designate a homework spot. Decide on the best spot in your home to set up homework central. That could be the location your child became accustomed to doing school work and studying during the early days of the pandemic, when class was virtual. Or maybe a different set-up is preferred at this point. Take into con sideration how involved you need to be with homework and your child’s style. Does he focus better with peo ple around or in a private setting? Is he better suited to sit at a desk or curled up in a favorite chair with a laptop cart? Once you have a place picked out, gather together handy homework tools and supplies into a nearby bin, drawer or cabinet. Stock up on ageappropriate supplies such as pens, pencils, erasers, paper, crayons, mark ers, a ruler, dictionary, calculator and a pencil sharpener. Create a communication hub. Include the family calendar, a chalk or bulletin board for posting messages and reminders, a binder for key docu ments, colored markers, pens and pencils. If you’re a visual person, con sider color coding your calendar by assigning each family member a dif ferent color. Remember not to forget. Use wall hooks and baskets or bins near the front door to corral the items you need to remember each day: back packs, books, lunches, gym shoes, sports equipment and musical instru ments.

Often our anxiety is trying to help us solve problems we cannot control. It can be really challenging to try, but mindfulness skills help us accept what we can control. Here are some steps to figure out what you can control.
Even for those students who genuinely love school and are eager to see their friends and start up their school year activities, some initial anxiety and nervousness may impact their return again this year. The last school was often interrupted by Covid outbreaks that meant a peri odic return to virtual learning in some cases, and, often a general sense of unease.
Start Planning Now For Back-To-School If You Haven’t Already
The more time you give yourself to figure things out, the less likely you are to feel stressed those days before school starts. If you haven’t been informed already, reach out to your school’s administration to determine what their policies will be in the fall.
Anticipate Your Child’s Concerns Children do best when they know what to expect, so it’s important to take the time to answer their questions and talk to them about their back-to-school experience. Especially in that first week, excitement may be tem pered with unease. Be sure all medical records are updated and they understand and are prepared for what school safety protocols may be. Gather school supplies and send them off with some special supplies that will excite them. Be prepared for your child’s emotions to fluctuate over the final weeks of summer and into the beginning of the school year. The first week of school is always exhaust ing, but while we’re all ready for life to full return to “nor mal,” we’re not quite there yet. If your child is struggling to adjust to school or show ing signs of excessive worry (acting out, withdrawing, irritability), it may be time to consider professional help. Or at the very least, contact the school counselor or social worker.
Proper hand hygiene remains as vital as ever. It’s important step in lowering risk of Covid-19 infection, as well as other illnesses. Provide your child with hand sani tizer to bring to school and encourage them to wash or sanitize their hands frequently. In addition, if your child shows any symptoms of Covid-19, such as fever, keep them home from school to prevent the spread of illness.
Organize for success Strategies that make the grade
S tudents return to the classroom after summer break energized and ready to embark on another school year. Or they? While families have seemingly settled into the ‘new normal’ vacation ing, socializing, etc, have returned to the daily rhythms of our lives for the most part, it’s important to remember that Covid-19 is still spreading. That pesky BA.5 subvariant is seemingly everywhere right now and may be ready to join students in the classroom. As you prepare for and start the 2022-2023 school year, continue to take steps to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Taking all precautions available will provide the most protection to children and the community and help students have a safe and healthy school year. That starts with vaccination. Medical practiitioners and epidemiologists strongly urge all family members to add the Covid vaccine to their immunization schedule. Everyone ages 6 months and older now is eligible to get vaccinated for Covid-19. Covid-19 vaccines are safe and highly effective at preventing serious illness. In addition, individuals ages 5 and older are eligible to get a Covid-19 booster shot. Staying up to date on your vaccines is the best way to reduce the spread of Covid. If your child is eligible, schedule their Covid booster before school begins. Other Safety Precautions
Think Through Your New Schedule As A Family Which extracurricular activities will you resume again? Have your child’s needs/interests changed? Also, make a plan for your updated child care needs and com municate them with caregivers in advance.

In line with national trends for com munity colleges, NCC is expected to wel come fewer students this year, especially coming out of Covid-19. “That’s always been a community col lege issue,” Conzatti said. “We certainly continue to see that here at the college.” Weathering both stop-outs and lower enrollment, Conzatti still boasts the sheer number of students who do finish their“Weeducation,haveover 168,000 alumni,” she said. “I mean, how many colleges can say that? That’s the people that graduate, not even people that just came to take a cou ple of classes because they wanted to get an increase in their pay.” For Conzatti, it’s all about creating a better future for students. “If you look at some of these schools, they’re charging a tremendous amount of money to do this,” she said. “We can help, and that’s what I mean by commu nity service. It’s an aid to our communi ty. We need to, and we can do it afford ably. And that’s what we need to do.”
Maria Conzatti has two major goals for the next 12 months: To have Nassau Community College “live” the word “community,” and to serve that commu nity through a number of new diverse programs.Appointed last May as NCC’s interim president, Conzatti’s term lasts a year, with the possibility of going longer if a permanent president isn’t found. Striv ing to offer a wider range of courses for Nassau County, Conzatti plans to bring new vocational classes like welding and HVAC — heating, ventilation and air conditioning — to the campus. Conzatti is hardly new to the NCC campus, instrumental in a number of different roles over the past 33 years. She has had a hand in both academic and technical departments, served as an adjunct business professor, and even as an academic dean and executive vice president.Conzatti is even an alum, attending NCC between 1984 and 1986. Working at the college was her way of giving back. “I’m a product of the college, I gradu ated from here as a first-generation alum,” Conzatti said. “This place really gave me my start and has offered me a wonderful career. So, in a way, I owe the college.”Understanding the diverse back ground of students drawn to NCC, Con zatti wants to cast a wider net in who enrolls by adding newer hands-on curric ulum and class times. “Not every student certainly was meant to go to college and spend two and or four years being educated,” she said. “So we’re going to be looking to really diversify program availability here at theThatcollege.”means more time options for nights and weekends, in addition to unique stepping-stone classes like voca tional training and micro-credentials — education and training for more specific aspects of subjects and careers. More classes would mean more ways to explore careers and interests. “You can take an HVAC class, and maybe you decide that, you know what, you want to major in engineering,” Con zatti said. “Maybe with that HVAC class, we can give you three credits toward a certificate or an associate’s degree. So, to me, I think it’s all interconnected.” Although still in development, Conzat ti plans to renovate and re-purpose build ings for welding and HVAC to properly accommodate the programs.

Michael Malaszczyk/Herald wILL CongEStIon affect Long Island? Not that works people here, according to Nassau County legislators Steve Rhoads and John Ferretti, along with Oyster Bay tax receiver Jeff Pravato.
in a way
Driving into downtown Manhattan in the near future could cost more than $20 for cars, and four times that for trucks. And that’s after factoring in gas. With congestion pricing — a plan intended to reduce vehicle dependence on the crowded streets of New York City ready to become a reality, one of the agencies expected to directly benefit — the Metropolitan Transportation Authori ty — has shared what it thinks vehicles should pay for the privilege of driving instead of riding. That’s $23 for cars and $82 for trucks, with such tolls also applying to deliveries, taxis and ride-hail vehicles like Uber and Lyft.There are many not too happy about the plan, especially Nassau County Republican legislators Steve Rhoads and John Ferretti, who joined Oyster Bay tax receiver Jeffrey Pravato in front of the Theodore Roosevelt Executive and Legis lative Building in Mineola to express that displeasure.It’s“simply another tax on hardwork ing residents of suburbia,” said Rhoads, who represents Wantagh, Seaford, Bell more, Merrick and Freeport. “Eighty-five percent of residents that commute on a daily basis into New York City already commute using mass transit, This is sim ply another way to control your behavior, using the power to tax and take another billion dollars away from the residents of suburbia into the pocket to cover the fis cal mismanagement of the MTA.” John Ferretti, whose district repre sents parts of East Meadow, Wantagh and Seaford, said the state measure’s goal of fighting traffic congestion is a good one, but that Albany is taking the wrong path. People are not taking the Long Island Rail Road because of rising ticket costs, he said, and blamed bail reform as a reason many don’t feel safe taking public transit. “Who wants to take the Long Island Rail Road when you might get pushed in front of the train you’re trying to get on?” Ferretti asked. But not everyone agrees with the law makers. State Sen. John Brooks, a Demo crat who faces Rhoads for a newly drawn senate seat in November, argued Rhoads and Perretti grossly misunderstand how things work in Albany. “No one voted solely on the question of congestion pricing,” Brooks said. “We voted on the budget as a whole. Your vote is either ‘yes’ for everything, or ‘no’ for everything.”Ifthelegislators want to attack him over congestion pricing, Brooks added, then they also owe him credit for millions of dollars in state aid and infrastructure repair, since those were also part of the state budget he voted for in 2019. Brooks dismissed Rhoads’ congestion price rhetoric as simply campaign rheto ric.“If Steve wants to talk about raising taxes on residents, let’s talk about the county housing assessments,” he said. “Nassau’s housing assessment has been frozen for 13 years because of the county legislature.”ButRhoads feels state officials are doing everything they can to try and keep opposition down, even holding public hearings on the MTA’s toll proposal in August, when many are on vacation. “It’s a further idea of what their actual thoughts on transparency are in this pro cess,” he said. As far as state lawmakers like John Brooks?“They’re the ones that voted for this,” Rhoads said. “And they are the ones that still have the power to be able to stop it.”

around 1969. I was speechless when I met her. I occasionally would be told that when I sing jazz tunes, I did sound a little bit like Ella, and my scatting was just beginning to develop. The day I got the Los Angeles Times, June 16, 1996, the front page (was) memorializing Ella Fitzgerald. It was that very morning I decided I was going to portray Ella and continue to bring her legacy forth through my presence and my interpretation of her. My favorite Ella song is ‘Mr. Paganini.’ The real title is ‘If you can’t sing it, you’ll have to swing it.’”
notes Summers. “Not only did her singing career endure the Depression era, (but also) the Big Band, Swing, and Be-Bop eras. Ms. Fitzgerald also sang the most definitive recordings of the American Songbook. Ella accomplished all, while living under the terrorism of the Jim Crow era and the rage of the civil rights movement. Even though her close friends included the iconic Marilyn Monroe, Fred Astaire, Frank Sinatra and other wealthy celebrities, our story humanizes Ella for a new generation.”
The Australian-English soft rock duo, of Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock, are still going strong. They visit Long Island on their current 45th anniversary tour, driven by years of friendship and love for Air Supply. The trademark sound of Hitchcock’s soaring tenor voice and Russell’s simple yet majestic songs created a unique sound that would forever be known as Air Supply. “Lost in Love,” “All Out of Love,” “The One That You Love,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Making Love Out Of Nothing At All” have all achieved multi-million radio Friday, Aug. 19, 8 p.m. NYCB Theatre at Westbury, 960 Brush Hollow Road, Westbury.

Q. We noticed that our water is brown from our showerhead, but only the hot water. It seemed like a simple issue, since our water heater is 30 years old and probably needs replacing. We checked different faucets and another bathroom, and there the water runs clear sometimes and brown sometimes, like every few months or several months. That made the whole thing more confusing. Can you explain why this is happening, what causes this and what we should do? A. Sounds like a murky question, filled with mystery. Your hot water supply system is generally made up of metal piping, and can, over time, corrode. First, don’t drink the water, even though you may assume it’s caused only by iron deposits, either from a galvanized pipe that is leaching or from the rod in your hot water tank that is corrod ing. Run your hot water. See if it continually comes out brownish. If it doesn’t, it may be an out side source, such as periodic flushing of water lines by your water supplier. Work done on your street may also cause temporary interruption, and the water can be temporarily brackish. Flushing will dilute the rust, and the water can then become clearer. Sometimes the problem is bacteria, but in a public water system, where you live, this is much lessYoulikely.mentioned that you know the water heater is old, and it is. Thirty years is considered a long time for a hot water tank, but with regular mainte nance, a tank can last that long. I typically hear that with proper annual flushing of the tank, where you either attach a hose, fill deep buckets from the valve and pour the water out elsewhere or have it serviced by your plumber, a hot water tank can last thatMostlong.people, however, naively assume that everything in the house lasts forever, and “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” This simply leads to an emer gency situation when corrosion points to the anode rod, which will have nearly completely deteriorat ed. The anode rod in your hot water tank is there to attract sediment through electrolytic action, the normal occurrence of positive and negative elec trons, so that the rod will deteriorate instead of the inside walls of the tank. Based on what you have described, you need a service call from a licensed professional plumber who can analyze the situation fairly quickly and not necessarily just replace the hot water tank, even though I anticipate that this is where you’re headed. The only other problem you may have is old, galvanized piping, as I mentioned, and replac ing piping, after tracing it inside the walls, will probably be the most expensive process, since walls and floors will need to be opened, pipes sawn out and replaced, and the walls and floors repaired, which often leads to larger projects, like redoing rooms and seriously costly domino-effect renova tion. Good luck!

National Senior Citizens Day on Aug. 21 KREISSRANDI S
W e need a National Village Elder, someone whose sole mission it is to advocate for Americans older than 65. I know we have President Biden, and he is a role model for fitness, public service and vigor as he heads toward his 80th birthday.Still,we need someone whose responsibilityonly is the legal, emotion al, financial and health support of people over 65. As of the 2019 census, there were 54.1 million of us. The numbers are grow ing, and the issues of senior health care, financial sta bility and aging at home are growing, too. Do you know who Xavier Becerra is and what he does? Becerra heads the U.S. Department of Health and Human Servic es. If you read the department’s website, you might think that it offers immediate services for older people looking for hous ing or medication or companionship or transportation, but as a government agen cy, the department is neither nimble nor swift in its outreach to seniors. We need one high-level person whose mission it is to help our citizens have a healthy and safe way of life in older age. Other countries do a much better job of caring for seniors, keeping them within the mainstream of life and providing increasing care as it’s needed. In Japan, for example, priority service is always available for older people, whether at the food market, the bus station or the medical clinic. In Den mark, multi-generational day care is available, keep ing the aging population in contact with babies and tod dlers.We need to have one gov ernment official who thinks only about how to better serve older Americans. If you’re reading this, you are either already in the older group, or will be. If our aging population is better cared for, there will be more opportunity for younger adults to live a life unburdened by the isolation and expense of caring for their parents with out help or Historically,relief.we have failed our seniors. During the raging days of Covid-19 infec tion and death, it became obvious to me that the rules of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the guidance from the White House were generalized advice, not especially helpful for older people. I wrote then and I still believe that older people were not sufficiently protect ed during those very dark days. We were more vulnerable, more like ly to have serious Covid, more likely to die. Those of us over 65 comprise 16 per cent of the population, but 80 percent of Covid deaths. Today, deaths are drop ping in the U.S. but accord ing to WebMD, “one fact has not changed in two-plus years of the pandemic: The elderly are still most at risk of dying from the virus.” Some of that is unavoidable, since older people often have other illnesses that make them more vulnerable; however, it stands as a national shame that Covid infection burned through nursing home and senior facilities, killing tens of thou sands of people who might have been kept safe with more evolved medical protocols, specific to older people. What we seniors do have is AARP, a powerful nonpartisan advocate for people over 50. For $9 a year, the organization offers education, discounts, travel benefits and specific guidance for older Ameri cans who want to live the last 30 or 40 years of their lives feeling healthy and fulfilled.AsIwrite this, the AARP website is offering a big thank-you to Congress, which just passed Biden’s Inflation Reduc tion Act of 2022. The organization posted, “Millions of Americans 50-plus are one step closer to real relief from out-of-con trol prescription drug prices.” AARP CEO Jo Ann Jenkins said the group has been working for nearly 20 years to allow Medi care to negotiate the price it pays for med ications. Now, because of the new bill, Medicare can fight for better drug prices, including a $35-a-month cap on insulin. That, as Biden might say, is a very big deal.AARP is a dynamic and popular advo cate, but a National Village Elder could bring additional attention and focus to the needs of our older citizens. If Biden weren’t busy being president, he’d be a terrific choice. He is relentless in his pur suit of solutions to problems we Ameri cans care about. He is empathic and sensi tive. He does not give up. He is old school, and that works when it comes to commu nicating with an aging population. If he decides not to run for a second term, perhaps Biden will consider the Vil lage Elder gig.

According to a report by McKinsey & Company, a management consulting firm, on the global impact of Covid on education, lower levels of learning trans late into lower future earnings. As of January 2022, over 25 percent of the world’s students attended school systems that were still not fully open. The most affected regions were Latin America, the Caribbean and South Asia. In the Unit ed States, students in majority-Black schools were found to be six months behind in mathe matics and reading at the start of the 2021-22 school year, while students in pri marily white schools were only two months behind. McKinsey estimates that by 2040, the economic impact of Covid-related learning disadvantage could translate to losses of $1.6 trillion worldwide annually. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on mental health concerns among U.S. high school stu dents during the pandemic. Over a third of high school students — 37 percent — reported that they experienced poor mental health. Some 44 percent reported that they persistently felt sad or hope less, and 55 percent reported that they had experienced emotional abuse from a parent or other adult in the home, includ ing being sworn at, insulted or put down. Eleven percent of high school students reported that they had suffered physical abuse as well. The CDC report did not differentiate based on race and ethnicity, but McKinsey found that parents of Black and Latinx students reported high er rates of concern about the mental health of their children. While Senate Democrats are celebrat ing the current version of their budget reconciliation bill as a major victory, it does not include the $400 billion for early education in the original Build Back Bet ter proposal, which would have created vitally needed universal child care and pre-kindergarten. The education propos al was approved in the House version of the bill, but blocked in the Senate by Republican opposition and conservative Democrats.

Covid-19’s impact on education could be long-lasting W hile much media coverage of the coronavirus pandem ic has focused on its impact on the global economy, which was serious, there is a potentially more insidious long-term consequence: the educational impact on a generation of American children, and especially Black, Latinx and Native American stu dents. Covid-19 has taken a toll on both their learn ing and mental releasedhealth.Arecentlystudy by the rebounding”“academicdemonstrablesigns.someciationEvaluationNorthwestAssofoundhopefulTherewasdur ing the 2021-22 school year in reading and math, particularly among younger stu dents. Measuring average performance, however, hides the fact that younger Black, Latinx and Native American chil dren did not do as well as their white and Asian-American peers. A major reason for the learning decline and larger racial gap appears to be extended remote learning during the pandemic. Low-income students and those three non-white groups were already scoring behind white and Asian students because of disparities that begin early in childhood, and the pan demic exacerbated those learning gaps. During the pandemic, in higher-pover ty schools with larger minority populations, stu dents tended to spend more time learning at home, in front of computer screens, and as a result they lost the equivalent of 22 weeks of instruction.Demographic differences in student performance are most noticeable in the ele mentary school grades, which suggests that as these children grow older, the larger learning gap will extend into middle school and high school. It could take three to five years for all children to reach earlier performance levels if they receive needed supported, but emergency federal Covid allocations expire long before then. School districts are required to spend the last of their coronavirus funds by September 2024.

Hurricane season officially start ed June 1, but for those of us enjoying life on Long Island and in the Northeast, our storm sea son starts just about … now. Of the 19 hurricanes that have made their way here since 1991, all but six have visited us in August or later. In fact, Hur ricane Sandy — the storm we’re still talk ing about a decade later — didn’t ravage our homes and businesses until Hallow eenOfweekend.course, we think of tropical storms and hurricanes as a problem for warmer climates. And for the most part, that’s true. There have been 453 named storms on the Atlantic Ocean side of the world over the past 30 years — an average of 15 per year. But Long Island can expect to see a named storm every year and a half. With five named storms finding their way here since 2020 — including Henri and Ida last year — the law of averages would suggest a rather long respite. But with global warming intensifying weath er patterns, we can only expect the num ber of storms we’ll face this year and beyond to grow. And we need to be ready. The National Weather Service sug gests making preparations now, and not waiting for a storm to show up on our doorstep.

First, know your evacuation zone. Long Island is considered “Zone 1” in New York. It’s part of an overall area that is most likely to flood, and is typically one of the first areas to be evacuated. Just about all of Long Island is in Zone 1, along with other coastal and low-lying parts of the greater New York City region, including a good portion of east ern Queens and Brooklyn, lower Manhat tan, all of Staten Island, and the eastern parts of the Bronx. Next, put together an emergency kit. This should include everything from the absolute essentials, like water and food, to first aid kits, flashlights, manual can openers, maps and extra batteries. Then, sit down with your family and write an emergency plan. Include any close friends and neighbors who might need help in the event of an emergency, and create a list of whom you should con tact if you do have to abandon your home. Know where you’re going and what you’ll do. You’ll want to keep a copy of the plan in a safe place — near your emergency kit — so you can access it in a hurry. These are all steps you’ve been reminded of time and again, so much you might be tired of hearing it. But when a storm does come and you have to leave in a hurry, you’ll be glad you put all thisAndtogether.thereis more you can do before we even have to worry about a storm. Like reviewing the insurance policies for your home, vehicles and property. Make sure you have adequate coverage not just for winds, but also for flooding. Even if you’ve never flooded before — storms have a way of making the impossible pos sible.Ifyou’re not sure what the difference is between a tropical storm and a hurri cane, or a watch and a warning, take the time to learn. Any type of alert is seri ous, but some threats are more imminent than others. You can find out more about all of this at Weather.gov. And one agency many of us have depended on in past storms has been the Long Island chapter of the American Red Cross, which serves more than 2.8 million people across Nas sau and Suffolk counties. The Red Cross has many suggestions on how to prepare for a major storm, which you can find at ferencebeingthanButwood,beenlasttinyurl.com/RedCrossEmergency.TwelveAmericansdiedinhurricanesyear,andanaverageof45liveshavelosteachyearsince1991.Knockon2022couldbeaquietstormseason.it’sbettertobepreparedfornothingnotbepreparedforsomething.Andpreparedcouldverywellbethedifbetweenlifeanddeath.

These neighbors must be some truly devoted readers — Elmont tent and real estate taxes are very low. Meanwhile, New York has enacted bail reform reforms, which in effect gives criminals more rights than normal tax payers.Crime is a revolving door — commit a crime in the morning and be released the same day to possibly commit another crime, which is ridiculous. Hochul has attempted to blame the judicial system, but many judges have stated that they’re just following the law. When you look at New York City, or state, it reminds you of Dodge City, with crime extremely high all over. Yet the crime rate in Florida in declining. Who wouldn’t want to feel safe walking the streets or shopping malls, and able to lead to a safe and peaceful life? That’s what people want — not the lawlessness and total negativity that’s associated with living in New York. That’s one of the reasons I recently bought a home in Florida.
RICHARD GRAVES Valley Stream Are cooling centers open long enough? To the DuringEditor:the many hot summer days, Nassau County opens up cooling centers to help residents escape excessive heat. Many seniors and others are frequent vis itors to their local libraries. But in too many cases, they don’t open until noon, and close by 6 p.m. or are closed on week ends.Surely a few dollars can be found for extending library hours. Why not have all libraries open seven days a week, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. during the summer? Seniors, retirees, students and others would be appreciative. Elected officials who find the funding are welcome to have their local library post a sign by the entrance saying that “our longer hours are thanks to funding provided by your local council member.”

though our answers often come in shades of gray.When I first heard about the Supreme Court’s monumental decision, I hoped I’d have a passionate stance. But I found myself not fully agreeing with either side, even though the ruling will have the greatest impact on my generation. As a 14-year-old who can barely balance home work and school assignments with tak ing care of my brothers before my par ents get home, I can’t imagine what it would be like to be pregnant at this age, let alone be forced to carry the baby and raise a child. I am growing up in an era when I will have fewer rights than my mother. On the other hand, however, I don’t have enough knowl edge to make an informed judgment on whether a fetus should be considered a person, and whether the overturning of Roe v. Wade will, as some claim, end the “genocide” of unborn lives. To me, that is a matter left to science and philoso phy, as they explore the boundaries of the age-old question, what does it mean to be alive? Perhaps we should therefore stop expecting such a complex topic to fit into a simple political mold and acknowledge that the so-called middle ground isn’t given enough attention, despite the fact that it is where many of us lie. According to Dobbs v. Jackson, the case in which the court made its ruling, the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was based on an interpretation of the 14th Amendment that abortion is not “deeply rooted in our country’s history” and is therefore not a right guaranteed by the Constitution.Thisrigidinterpretation leaves no room for the fluid and ever-changing def inition of “life.” Technolog ical advancements in recent decades have changed the definition of a viable fetus and have led to constantly fluctuating opin ions. Unfortunately, it seems that our country has lost its focus. By analyzing the scientific concept of life through a judicial lens, the court makes the question of abortion a matter of the Constitution, when it should be a question of life itself that is best left for science to answer.Iam reminded of Carl Zimmer’s “Life’s Edge: The Search for What It Means to Be Alive,” a book I read for an English assignment this past school year. According to the book’s depiction of abortion, scientists make a logic-based argument of a fetus’s biological function ality and ability to survive independent ly, while judges, more philosophically, question consciousness and humanity. Neither side, however, has a certain defi nition, because when life begins is not a concept that can be decided with abso luteAccordingcertainty.to Zimmer, an initially fer tilized egg, a zygote, is merely a cell, and no bigger than the thousands of biologi cally “living” human cells that unnotice ably shed and “die” every day. In society there is a clear distinction between dying cells and dying fetuses, but not always in science. If life can evade the iron defini tions in science and law and challenge our societal certainties, why has the court attempted to define it with such strict legal boundaries? The Supreme Court has taken a onesided stance on a complex topic. I have yet to form a strong opinion on whether abortion is moral, but I know that I am not the only person who feels “gray” on a topic that has become so black and white (or, more accurately, red and blue). And one thing is clear to me: If scientists, pol iticians, and millions of others with “gray” opinions can’t decide whether or not abortion is morally correct, the Supreme Court should not infringe on my personal right to make that choice. Ilana Greenberg will be a sophomore at North Shore Hebrew Academy High School in Great Neck.
