Civic leads anger over building

By HERNESTo GAlDAMEZ hgaldamez@liherald.com

Jeffrey Bessen/Herald

THE UPSTAIRS MEETING room of the Lawrence Yacht & Country Club drew a crowd for the Feb. 1 Lawrence Civic Association meeting.

While the theme of the Feb. 1 Lawrence Civic Association meeting was that the 95-year-old organization was back in action after the pandemic, the tone established by the group’s new leader, Judi Bernstein, was anger about proposed development in the Five Towns.

“We are the watchdogs of the Village of Lawrence,” Bernstein said. “Our organization was established in 1928, and during Covid we went into quarantine like everyone else, and now it’s time for our re-emergence and our revival.”

Development — or what is seen as overdevelopment — was the focus of discussion and questions last week.

Hewlett students shine as Junior Science semifinalists

By HERNESTo GAlDAMEZ hgaldamez@liherald.com

Hewlett High School students continue to be recognized for their skills in science research, as six have been named 2023 Junior Science and Humanities Symposium semifinalists.

“Our community values research, and our specific programs are designed to support our students in their research investigations,” Principal Alexandra Greenberg stated in a news release. “We are so proud of our six students and their contributions to the field of academia.”

All of the students are

enrolled in the Hewlett Science Research pro g ram, which encompasses a social science program as well. Junior Alexandre Tour neux and seniors Ethan Abelev and Mikayla Joseph are involved in the science program, while seniors Abigail Khaytman, Michael Pignatelli and Olivia Ginzburg take part in the social science program.

Students conduct independent research that lends itself to competitions such as the JSHS, which recognizes excellence in science, technology, engineering and mathematics as well as the humanities. The students com-

pete at the regional level, and semifinalists are chosen for the national symposium.

Tourneux’s project, in the field of genetics, is titled “The Annotation of Novel Datasets for the Training of Cellori (Cell Origin) Spots, A Deep Learning Algorithm for RNA FISH Detection.”

Abelev’s project, “Monocarbony curcumin analogs C66 and B2BrBC down regulate selected genes involved in the epithelialto-mesenchymal transition and metastasis in breast cancer,” investigated treatments for breast cancer.

“Orthologue of Root Hair

Defective 3 (RHD3) in Ceratopteris richardii is Affected by DNA Methylation and Regulates Rhizoid Development in Gametophytes,” Joseph’s project, studied a gene that helps increase absorption of nutrients in plants.

The students in the science program were under the guidance of science research coordi-

nator Terrence Bissoondial, who also advised them on how to develop their research papers.

“It is wonderful to see that students from Hewlett H.S. can develop scientific research in a range of topics” like plant biology, oncology, computer science, social science, Bissoondial wrote in an email. “These projContinued on page 14

Hindi’s Libraries first benefit concert, Feb. 15

By KEPHERD DANIEL kdaniel@liherald.com

Nearly three years after the originally scheduled concert, Hindi’s Libraries will host its first-ever benefit concert at the Hewlett-East Rockaway Jewish Centre on Feb. 15.

The concert, planned for March 2020, was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic and will be performed by internationally-known performer and Manchester native, Martin Kaye.

Kaye is a world traveler who has performed in hundreds of countries and on cruise ships, which is where he met the cofounder of Hindi’s Libraries, Leslie Gang.

After meeting 15 years ago the two formed a long-lasting friendship and were able to establish a date for Kaye to come to New York to perform for Hindi’s Libraries.

“It's been very exciting that it's finally coming so close,” Gang said. “We have people who are coming from near and far because they believe in what we do and they are fans of Martin Kaye. This will really put us on the map both in terms of funding and in terms of awareness.”

Hindi’s Libraries was founded in August 2018 as a tribute to Hindi Krinsky, a teacher at the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaway, by her husband, Dovid Kanarfogel and Gang after Krinsky died at 32 after complications from Crohn's disease that same year. Since its inception, Hindi’s Libraries has collected 400,000 books and

MARtIN KAyE, wILL bring his energy and his signature mismatched socks to Hindi’s Libraries first benefit concert at the Hewlett-East Rockaway Jewish Centre on Feb. 15. partnered with more than 700 organizations worldwide, spanning all 50 states and across the globe.

Kaye, an entertainer, singer and selfdescribed showman, is best known for his performances as Jerry Lee Lewis in the hit Broadway show, “Million Dollar Quartet.”

He was also in the West End and Las Vegas

show. Kaye's mission is to share his love of music which he says he hopes to do for Hindi’s Libraries.

“You can expect me to not sit still,” Kaye said. “It’s going to be high energy, entertaining and fully interactive, and having the best time. Hopefully, everyone will leave on a high and feel like they've just experienced

something really fun.”

The concert will be Hindi’s Libraries biggest event since the nonprofit was formed. For Kanarfogel, who has since remarried and has stepchildren, said his emotion and meaningfulness towards Hindi’s Libraries have not diminished at all.

“It's been an opportunity for me to appreciate the kind of growth that can happen. Nothing ever gets resolved with something like this, but it's really been a nice way for me personally, to see how things changed and appreciate the changes life has taken in the last years,” he said.

Kaye’s concert will be the main event of an exciting night for Hindi’s Libraries.

Chris Rice Thompson, an actor who has performed on Broadway in “Hamilton” and “The Book of Mormon” and has been featured on “ABC World News with Diane Sawyer,” will be the master of ceremonies.

The pre-show will begin with a premium VIP cocktail-making demonstration. After the show there will be a VIP meet and greet dessert where, Taryn Delaney Smith, who came in second place in the Miss America Pageant, will speak about an upcoming book drive that Hindi’s Libraries will be hosting together for Mont Lawn City Camp, an afterschool program in the Bronx.

Tickets will be sold at the door and can be purchased at HindisLibraries.org/martinkaye. Proceeds benefit Hindi's Libraries and the Hewlett East Rockaway Jewish Centre receives a portion of every ticket sale as a donation from Hindi’s Libraries.

Selling the Number Five School, vote on Feb. 16 hgaldamez@liherald.com

The fate of the Lawrence school district’s Number Five School lies in the hands of the public as a Feb. 16 referendum vote could determine new ownership of the Cedarhurst building.

The asking price for the 97,000-squarefoot building built in 1929 is $12.5 million.

The Shulamith School for Girls, the current tenant, is the highest bidder, as of press time. The property at 305 Cedarhurst Ave. has been leased from the school district since 2015.

“Shulamith has been a good neighbor,” said Josh Justic, a Lawrence resident and president of Community Coalition of the Five Towns. “They’ve taken good care of the building.”

The Community Coalition, founded 10 years ago, addresses community challenges and builds awareness of ongoing activity in the Five Towns.

In 2013, the coalition spearheaded opposition to the first sale of the Number Six School in Woodmere to Bronx-based Simone Development for $12.5 million which was planning to lease the site to Mount Sinai Hospital for 60-doctor, 30-speciality medical center. In almost a two-toone margin, residents rejected the sale.

‘It would’ve been a disaster,” Avi Pinto, the coalition’s vice president said about the proposed medical facility. “Knowing the area the neighborhood couldn’t handle that kind of structure or traffic.”

Herald Files

THE LAwRENcE ScHOOL district is seeking permission to sell the Number Five School in a referendum vote on Feb. 16. Shulamith School for Girls is the current highest bidder.

A year later, district residents approved the sale of the building to the Hebrew Academy of Long Beach for $8.5 million.

If sold, the Number Five School would be the fourth school sold by the district since 1980. The Number One School was sold in 2007 to developer David Neuberg for $29.1 million. The site became the upscale Regency condominium complex.

“We need to keep our buildings schools,” Pinto said. “Everything in this town has already been built. There’s very

little room for redevelopment.”

Justic hopes to draw another big turnout of neighbors. By doing that, he has sent messages in Five Towns-related group chats, posting on Facebook as well as sending emails. “We have to do our job and go vote,” he said.

“If this fails (the referendum), then it can be revisited, Justic added. “A potential developer can say, ‘Hey, I can get this for less money because the first bid failed and I could get someone to approve a fivestory building with 50 units.’”

Lawrence High School will undergo a $60 million to $80 million makeover, using $50 million to $60 million in Federal Emergency Management Agency project funding for damage caused by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, as well as the projected proceeds from the sale of the Number Five School, Board of Education President Murray Forman previously said. New sidewalks, a new heating and air-conditioning system and flood protection walls are planned.

“The voters get the final say at the referendum,” Forman said previously.

“If (the sale) is something that the voters are in favor of, it will get done.”

Shulamith has an early-childhood school, lower division, middle school and high school. The high school is housed in the former site of a New York Sports Club on Franklin Place in Woodmere.

Lease payments for the Cedarhurst building began at $500,000 per year and grew to $600,000 this school year. The district has saved roughly $800,000 in annual operating expenses for the building as Shulamith is responsible for maintenance.

“They want to keep it as it always been,” Justic said. “A school for kids. Not no apartment buildings, not no housing not something that would generate traffic but a place to educate our children and that’s the right thing to do.”

Voting on Feb. 16 is from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., at Lawrence High School, 2 Reilly Road, in Cedarhurst.

Sanitary District 1 attorney disqualified, in court March 28

By HERNESTO GALDAMEZ hgaldamez@liherald.com

After the Feb. 1 court hearing, Sanitary District 1 is still without a winner in the election for commissioner between Gabriel Boxer and Gwynette Campbell, which took place in July to determine who would complete the remaining four years of Lino Viola’s five-year term after he stepped down in April.

Boxer, a Hewlett resident, gathered 395 votes to Campbell, an Inwood resident, who received 288 votes. Days after the election, both parties went to court to address the issue of who issued and reviewed the absentee ballot applications and whether they should proceed counting the roughly 900 absentee ballots.

“Likely a sham election from day one,” Boxer said, calling Feb. 1, “a huge day in court.”

Nat Swergold, who was representing both the sanitary district and Campbell, was disqualified from doing that because of a possible conflict of interest. He potentially was a witness during the election, the judge ruled. Swergold represented the district for more than 50 years.

“We raised questions,” John Ciampoli said, who represents Boxer. “I’m grateful that the court granted our motion for disqualification of the council. I think it is wrong for one attorney to be representing the election authorities and the candidate at the same time and the court recognized

THE SANiTARy DiSTRicT 1 commissioner race dispute between Gabriel Boxer and Gwynette Campbell remains undecided and disputed in court. that.”

In a previous court hearing, Swergold said he would make available evidence of redacted copies of the absentee ballot applications and sealed envelopes containing the absentee ballots with signatures. Redacted copies block out sensitive information.

Ciampoli said he has since reviewed those pieces of information and said that the signatures did not match the ones on file when someone registered to vote.

Boxer took to social media on a local Five Towns Facebook group on the latest about the ongoing court case. “Why take such an extraordinary step to remove a lawyer?” he posted. “Because amongst other issues, the judge said that Swergold is a potential witness in the investigation over irregularities in the conduct of the election.”

Boxer calls on Campbell to step down.

But Ciampoli is optimistic the court will declare his client as the winner in court

under two scenarios.

“Certify the results on the basis of the voting machines and who voted in person,” Ciampoli said. “Or do the whole election over under court supervision. At the end of the day, under those two scenarios, I think Gabriel Boxer wins.”

Swergold has previously said that there were no election irregularities.

However, Ciampoli thinks otherwise.

“I’ve just begun to scratch the surface,” Ciampoli said. “I have evidence that they did nothing to check the absentee ballot applications before they issued a ballot.”

Boxer said a similar case was adjudicated upstate. A Rensselaer County Board of Elections commissioner, Jason Schofield, 43, of Troy, admitted to applying for ballots using other people’s personal information. He is expecting to face five years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000 and post-imprisonment supervised release of up to three years.

Swergold refused to respond to the Herald’s questions.

The next court date is March 28.

Established in 1929 by the Hempstead Town Board, Sanitary District 1 collects more than 50,000 residents’ recycling and trash at various commercial and institutional properties in the Five Towns and portions of Lynbrook and Green Acres.

Spousal Refusal - Just Say No Once the “community spouse” invokes their right to refuse, and all of the other myriad requirements of the Medicaid application are met, the state Medicaid program must pay for the care of the institutionalized spouse.

After Medicaid has been granted, the county may institute a lawsuit seeking to recover the cost of care from the refusing spouse. Nevertheless, there are a few reasons why spousal refusal makes sense, even in light of this risk. First, in many instances, the county never invokes this right. Secondly, these lawsuits are often settled for significantly less than the cost of care provided. Thirdly, the payment to the county can sometimes be deferred until the community spouse dies. As one county attorney told us when agreeing to such an arrangement, “the county is going to be around for a long time”. Finally, even though the county may seek recovery, it is only for the Medicaid reimbursement rate and not the private pay rate. For example, if the private pay rate is $18,000 per month, which is what you would have to pay, the amount Medicaid has to pay is generally a quarter to a third less. The county may only pursue you for the amount they actually paid.

Spousal refusal is a legally valid Medicaid planning option in New York. By way of background, certain income and assets are exempt from Medicaid if there is a spouse.

Generally, the spouse at home, known as the “community spouse” may keep about $3,700 per month of the couple’s combined income and up to about $150,000 of the assets or “resources”. Not included in those figures are any other exempt assets, such as a home (up to about $1,000,000 of the equity only) and one automobile. The spouse who is being cared for in a facility is known as the “institutionalized spouse”.

Many a spouse has advised us that they simply cannot afford to live on the allowances that Medicaid provides. This is where spousal refusal comes in. We start by shifting excess assets into the name of the “community spouse”.

He or she then signs a document which the elder law attorney prepares and files with the county indicating that they refuse to contribute their income and assets to the care of the ill spouse since they need those income and assets for their own care and well-being. Note that you may not refuse your spouse’s own income over the $3,700 per month exemption as it is not coming to you.

Hewlett High School’s Model Congress was declared the victor of the Jan. 30 Oceanside Model Congress competition.

After a long day of debates and cheers, Hewlett High delegates were excited by their win.

Model Congress, as suggested by the name, replicates the proceedings of the U.S. Congress with committee and plenary sessions where students can practice public speaking.

The event also includes activities that encourage socialization with other school districts such as cheers and entertainment.

Hewlett took part in OMC XLVIII, Oceanside’s 48th congress. With the theme of high school cliques, Hewlett was selected to represent the goths.

Decked out in all-black attire and grunge accessories, deleiral gates embodied the stereotypical goth style with pride.

Hewlett was prepared to dominate at Oceanside by staying decorous and maintaining high spirits throughout the long day.

Olivia Ginzburg, general chair of Hewlett Model Congress, noted the preparation that went into the successful congress. “We had been preparing for Oceanside for the longest time. The second we found out what the theme was, we

began brainstorming potential costumes,” Ginzburg said. “We emphasized the importance of working together leading up to the event as well, which I think contributed to the overall win.”

“We put a lot of effort into OMC, from coordinating costumes in accordance with the theme of the congress to writing cheers,” said Leah Bragin, lower Delegate chair of Hewlett Model Congress. “In the end it was worth it — this win has brought our delegation together and made us eager for the next few foreign congresses!”

Hewlett delegates are now shifting their focus to their domestic congress that will take place on March 11. Hosting hundreds of students is no easy task, but Hewlett Model Congress is ready to take on the event with stride. Students Havre have already begun drafting bills and practicing necessary chairing practices to ensure smooth proceedings.

Excitement for Hewlett’s domestic congress continues to build as the event draws closer. Brian Chen, assistant general chair of Hewlett Model Congress, is enthusiastic. “I can’t wait for the United Model Congress community to meet at our school,” he said. “I know for sure that everyone’s about to have a lot of fun!”

If you’re thinking, too much work!

Why do I need to think about these things? Why can’t I just say what I want to say? Well you sure can. You have the right to keep repeating old patterns. You can shake your head in disdain. Tell him what an idiot he is.

Call her an airhead. Mutter curse words. Build a case for how right you are! Then your conversation might go something like this: She: I know something’s bothering you. What is it? Did you have a bad day?

He: Nothing’s bothering me! I just want some peace and quiet. Is that too much to ask?

She: There you go again. Not talking to me. I’m sick of it.

You can see where this conversation is going. Time to batten down the hatches!

Now let’s imagine she starts with the same complaint but both parties alter their responses to obtain a different outcome.

She: I know something’s bothering you.

What is it? Did you have a bad day?

He: Nothing’s bothering me! I just had a stressful day and want to relax. I need time to unwind.

She: Okay, I hear you; you want to retreat to apadin your cave. Hopefully your hibernation won’t last too long. When you emerge, remember I’m here to listen.

He: I know but I’m not like you; I don’t always want to talk about stuff.

She: Yeah, you’re a quiet guy. I know that. Still, it makes me feel alone, and distant from you when you don’t share what’s going on in your life.

He: I’m zonked. Let me be, and we’ll talk later after the kids are asleep.

She: Okay, I look forward to it.

What did this couple do that deescalated the conflict? Here are five communication skills that made a difference.

What is metacommunication?

Simply put, it’s communication (verbal or non-verbal) about communication. An example is communicating in a mocking tone. So if you tell your spouse, “I’d like to go out for dinner tonight,” and your spouse repeats back in a mocking voice, “I’d like to go out for dinner tonight,” you’re off and running to a downhill race.

Here are two more examples of problematic metacommunication: He says: Do you know where my phone is?

She responds: You never put anything away; then you expect inda me to find it. How should I know where you put it?

She says: It’s raining; please drive carefully!

He says: Get off my back! I’m not an idiot; I know how to drive – even in the rain!

Communication is not only what you say; it’s what the other person hears, interprets, and understands what you say. When you have a history with someone, a simple question may conjure up a frenzy of emotions.

Before you respond in kind, it’d be a good idea to ask yourself:

New IDF shul honors N. Woodmere’s Cyrus Wolf

By KEPHERD DANIEL kdaniel@liherald.com

A new synagogue at the Rehavam Base, headquarters of the Israel Defense Forces’ Homefront Command’s Search and Rescue Unit in the city of Ramla, was opened in the memory of Cyrus Wolf, a North Woodmere resident who died in 2007. He was 74.

The synagogue is a gift from Florence Wolf, of Lawrence, and her family in honor of her husband. The shul will help ensure the soldiers are mentally and spiritually nurtured and have a place to relax throughout their service.

“This was really the most incredible way to memorialize my father,” Trudy Stern, Wolf ’s daughter, said. “He was very involved in the community and in the shul, in particular, the five towns. The shul for him was a communal place for people to gather and for people to connect with one another.”

The IDF Homefront Command is responsible for preparing and assisting the civilian population in times of crisis, as well as post-crisis reconstruction. The Search and Rescue Brigade is a highly skilled force under its command that operates search and rescue missions in Israel and around the world, aiding in rescue and recovery from incidents such as terror attacks, floods, and other natural disasters.

Towns, a generous benefactor and someone who thrived on bringing Jews together. For Wolf, a synagogue was a place where he and his family united and connected with their Jewish community, and this gift presented on his behalf was the perfect way to honor his memory. The construction of the synagogue, and ceremony, were facilitated by the Friends of the IDF. “It was absolutely incredible,” Stern said. “It really concretized all of our feel-

ings and being in the shul with the soldiers and, praying with them and speaking with them and hearing from them how important it is to have the synagogue at their base. It was a real honor and a privilege for my family, to be able to work with the FIDF in doing this and in providing this wonderful synagogue for the IDF.” Col. Elad Edri, commander of the Search & Rescue Brigade, helped cut the ribbon on the new building and

addressed the crowd along with FIDF national Chair, Fred Gluckman and Ed Wolf, who represented the family. The chief cantor of the IDF, Lt. Col. Shai Abramson, recited a Yizkor prayer in memory of Cyrus Wolf, and another for the safety of Israel and its soldiers.

“We are deeply grateful to the Wolf family for their incredible contribution to the Homefront Command Base,” Gluckman said a news release. “It is a privilege to partner with such generous and mission-driven philanthropists to provide a synagogue as a community gathering place for the soldiers. We echo their intention to provide those who defend the homeland with a place to form a stronger community through reflection and prayer.”

FIDF’s construction projects give the young men and women of the IDF a taste of “home away from home” while they are in service, organization officials stated in the release.

FIDF aims to create environments where soldiers can relax, connect with each other, stay in shape, commemorate and celebrate special days, and simply feel themselves again outside of uniform.

Projects range from individual structures to comprehensive well-being complexes and include recreation and sports centers, cultural and educational facilities, synagogues, memorial rooms, auditoriums, and soldiers’ homes.

Wrestling: Nassau Division 1 Finals at Hofstra......4:30 p.m.

It was a strong showing at Hewlett High School by the host team last Saturday afternoon at the Nassau Division 1 wrestling qualifier. A total of eight Bulldogs made the finals in their respective weight groups with six winning it all.

Similar to last season, the Bulldogs had six qualifier champions to set the tone for the bigger stage this weekend.

The mark ties a school record and Hewlett will be sending at least 11 wrestlers to the county championships at Hofstra University. They’ll look to replicate last winter’s success.

“We have like a murderers row from weight class 110 to 132,” coach Stephen Jones said.

“Those guys are some of the top guys in the county.”

In the lightest weight class of 102 pounds, Hewlett’s Jesse McMahon came out on top. The freshman is not currently ranked in his weight group, but has started to come into his own as of late.

“He’s had a very nice year,” Jones said. “Jesse has been in our youth program and has been wrestling with us for a long time, so we’re not surprised. I think it gives him a lot of momentum and confidence for the county.”

Hewlett has continued to showcase its top wrestlers throughout the winter between various tournaments and dual meets. One member in particular who shined this past weekend was Kirk Smith (126). The junior, who is ranked fourth in section eight as of Jan. 31, pinned his opponent in just 54 seconds and recorded the most pins (four) in the least amount of time (4:29).

eighth-gRaDeR CaRlos salazaR, top, captured the 110-pound qualifier title last Saturday and was one of six champions for the Bulldogs.

Smith is one of two wrestlers in Hewlett’s program that has picked up career win No. 100 this season.

“It’s really impressive, especially being only a junior with a shortened season,” Jones said. “For him to reach that mark is just a huge achievement.”

The other to reach that plateau of 100 wins is multi-sport athlete Ariel Waldman (132).

The senior is a two-time county finalist and is one of the six qualifier champions. Waldman is currently ranked second in

section eight and is the anchor out of Hewlett’s wrestlers.

“He’s our top guy,” Jones said. “He looks better than he’s looked all year. I think he’s got a really legitimate shot to win.”

After numerous second place finishes in various tournaments and meets prior to Saturday’s Division 1 Qualifier, senior Ryan Goodman broke through with a win in the 172lb group. Goodman, a captain for the Bulldogs, will be heading to Quinnipiac University this fall to play division 1 lacrosse.

“He’s very solid and a good

athlete,” Jones said. “Ryan’s just a good all-around kid and he should definitely be one of the top-five seeds next week.”

Eighth-grader Carlos Salazar (110) and junior Eric Gendlin (118) were also qualifying tournament champions. Jacob Bouskilla (145) and Oleg Daniloff (160) both finished runners-up.

Overall, the Bulldogs finished second in the eight-team event and will have plenty of representation at Hofstra. The county finals are set for 4:30 p.m. this Sunday.

Nassau rolls dice on Coliseum casino plans Las Vegas developer with international reach looks to beat odds

By ROKSANA AMID ramid@liherald.com

It could be one of the largest private endeavors in Nassau County’s history — and already one of its most controversial.

The Las Vegas Sands resort company wants to develop the 80 acres of vacant land surrounding the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum — an investment that could well exceed $1 billion. While some have championed a new commercial center complete with a hotel, celebrity chef restaurants, a convention center and a live performance venue, it’s the casino element some aren’t sure is worth the gamble.

Like Hofstra University president Susan Poser.

“So many people in our community are expressing the idea that this is already a done deal, and therefore not understanding that we are at the beginning of a competitive and quite lengthy process,” Poser told the hundreds of people who packed her school’s Monroe Lecture Hall on Saturday.

CAMP & SCHOOL – A guide to programs and activities

Fitting it all in Managing the after-school activities juggle tions,” Dalgliesh says. “For some kids, coming home triggers wind-down time, [so] parents may want to go to the library after school to do homework instead of stopping by the house.”

Honor the family meeting. There is a central principle when it comes to family time management: Everyone must get together once a week, with calendars in hand, to plan out the next week. Figure out how each kid will get to and from each activity, and make plans for meals and snacks. When doing the planning, try to carve out at least one night when the family can have dinner together. Make your weekly meeting fun by following it with a family movie or game night. Or, suggests Grey, dole out allowance and lunch money at the end of the meeting.

Maintain a family calendar. Each family member needs his or her own week-at-a-glance calendar, and you also need a family calendar.

Yes, that’s a lot of calendars, but it will help ensure all activities are well-planned.

Get the activity bags ready. Get your kids in the habit of packing their activity bags on Sunday night. Designate a place for them to hang or store their bags. For activities requiring a lot of gear, use a checklist to make sure nothing gets left behind.

Embrace meal planning. It’s important to plan simple, consistent meals, especially if you’re a busy family with a lot of activities. For example, kids love theme dinners such as “Taco Tuesday,” and can help with preparation and

assembly. Also plan snacks, making sure to have high-protein nibbles available for kids before they embark on a strenuous activity.

Make it portable. Keep healthy drinks and snacks in a car cooler. After all,“we’re a portable society,” Dalgliesh says. In addition to food, keep an “activities bin” for kids to rummage through while hanging out at big brother’s karate practice — but only then. “Those activities are special, and they only get pulled out when kids are waiting,” Dalgliesh explains.

Make car time special. If you spend a lot of time driving to and from activities, make that time count. Try an audiobook, choosing a story everyone in the family can enjoy. Dalgliesh plays a conversation game with her children.

She has a set of cards with prompts such as, “What is the worst meal you ever had in a restaurant?” or “What is your favorite vacation memory?” She passes the deck to her kids has them pick one. “It’s about finding those moments to connect,” she says.

Have a picnic. If you have to race from your daughter’s after-school soccer practice to

Be flexible. Even the most carefully made plans can be rendered useless by a thunderstorm that cancels soccer practice, a sick child, or an unexpected work disaster.

Empower your kids. Give your kids as much control over their own planning and scheduling as they can handle. Different kids need different tools. Especially as kids get older, they need to own their organization system.

Some kids like to do everything electronically, others like pretty paper notebooks and calendars. Some kids like to use the latest apps and color-coded pens to stay organized, and others take a minimalist approach, scribbling basic information only.

Electronics and computers. Our devices became our lifelines during the pandemic , and for many it’s a hard habit to break. It’s easy to rely on electronic games and social media during the activities crunch, especially for siblings who are waiting or when you arrive at an activity early. But set limits and use electronic toys as a reward for good behavior, with exceptions to those limits when the tech tool is needed for a school project.

By teaching your kids the skills they need to manage their life inside and outside of school, you’ll equip them for grade school, college, and beyond. You’ll also create a family life that allows all members the opportunity to reach their potential.

For many families, the morning rush isn’t the most chaotic time of the day. Instead, the sanity-buster is that long stretch from the time school lets out until the final activity ends and everyone is home.

Surviving the afternoon activities juggle is all about planning and time management — and it’s also an opportune time to teach kids some valuable skills.

“The opportunity with activities is it’s a great time for kids to learn time management,” says Carolyn Dalgliesh, a professional organizer who specializes in helping kids who are anxious or distracted. “It’s a skill that will help them throughout their lives.”

Without preparation, the activities crunch can get kids — and parents — on a quick path to burnout and exhaustion.

Consider these tips from the experts for making your child’s after-school activities a fun and rewarding part of childhood — and for teaching your child the skill of time management.

Choose the right activities. There is no need for everyone to run ragged getting to volleyball practice if your child no longer enjoys it.

“We talk about mindful choices,” Dalgliesh says.

“You want your child to get value out of any activity, whether it’s a great social outlet or a chance to run off a lot of energy.”

Consider timing. If you’re lucky enough to have choices in times, choose wisely. “Think about how well your child does with transi-

Pignatelli got the idea when he returned to the classroom as the coronavirus pandemic died down.

Ginzburg’s project, “How Do Adolescents Manage Worry? An Examination of Factors Affecting Worry Among High School Students,” studied adolescents’ worries about their academic, family and social lives.

Hewlett High’s social science coordinator, Joseph Van Wie, has worked with the three social science semifinalists since they took his honors class in world history as freshmen.

“Early on, I recognized their analytical, critical thinking, research, and writing abilities,” Van Wie wrote in an email.

“I knew they would be ideal candidates for the Social Science Research Program.”

In the semifinals of the competition, set for Sunday at York College in Queens,

Pignatelli said that Van Wie’s guidance on how to make a good impression on the judges had helped him prepare. “Mr. Van Wie has been extremely helpful with this

process,” he said, “helping me highlight the best parts of my paper to share and giving me time to practice presenting.”

The semifinalists will have the opportunity to win tuition-based scholarships of up to $2,000. The top five will advance to the National JSHS, on Feb. 25 at York,

where they will have a shot at $12,000 in undergraduate tuition scholarships.

“Dr. Bissoondial does a phenomenal job,” Tourneux said. “We work really tirelessly on trying to perfect wording that is accurate and understanding to the audience you are trying to reach.”

Pat McGann

By Karen Bloom

Can art change the world? It’s a question that’s been at the focus of our collective culture for centuries. Now as society navigates the complexities of modern life, art as a path for social change is at the forefront of artistic expression.

WHERE WHEN • Saturday and Sunday, noon-4 p.m.; Tuesday through Friday, 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

• Emily Lowe Hall Gallery, South Campus, Hempstead.

For information and to RSVP, call (516) 463-5672, or visit Hofstra.edu/museum

“When We All Stand,” Hofstra University Museum of Art’s new exhibition, examines the collective power of the arts in society.

Curated by Alexandra Giordano — the museum’s assistant director of exhibition and collection — the exhibit underscores artists’ civic responsibility and influence.

“It highlights the vital role that artists have in activating democratic values that promise equality and freedom, encouraging civic engagement, and cultivating unity,” Giordano says. “Artists often lead the charge and expose truths that may otherwise be ignored. The artists in this exhibition take a stand and call out injustices through their art and activism on issues such as immigration, gender, reproductive rights, mass incarceration, voting rights, racial bias, gun violence, and promises unfulfilled. They all combine the making of art with public service that has a grassroots approach in the hope of mobilizing their communities and the nation to ignite movement, create awareness, and inspire others to stand with them.”

This exhibit, which runs through July 28, is in conjunction with Hofstra’s 13th presidential conference on the Barack Obama presidency coming up in April.

“We were interested in the idea that the artist has a civic responsibility,” says museum director Karen Albert. “The initial idea for this exhibition was inspired by an Obama Administration White House briefing that took place on May 12, 2009, where more than 60 artists and creative organizers met with administration officials to discuss the collective power of the arts to build community, create change, and chart a pathway for national recovery in the areas of social justice, civic participation and activism.”

To that end, unlike other recent exhibits that showcased the museum’s permanent collection, Giordano reached out to contemporary artists who loaned the museum their selected works. Some 36 pieces are on view — representing all media — from Emma Amos, Molly Crabapple and the Equal Justice Initiative, For Freedoms, Miguel Luciano, Michele Pred, Hank Willis Thomas, and Sophia Victor.

“The way our climate is now, this exhibit could not be more timely than at this moment,” Albert adds.

Among the highlights, she points to the series of prints from the collective For Freedoms. Their four large scale photos are based on Norman Rockwell’s 1943 oil paintings inspired by President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1941 State of the Union address that outlined what he considered the essential four democratic values freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. For Freedoms has interpreted these iconic works for our era.

“It’s the same composition,” Albert says. “From 1940s America, these (works) show what America is today, our diversity and what we look like now.”

As always the museum offers additional programming to enhance the exhibit experience.

Upcoming events include an artist panel on Feb. 23, which examines the role of the artist as activist, and a gallery tour with Alexandra Giordano, March 16.

Pat McGann is quickly rising as one of the sharpest stand-ups on the comedy scene. A relative latecomer to comedy, he began doing standup at 31 after realizing he was not very good at selling packaging.

He hustled his way to become the house emcee at Zanies Chicago, where he distinguished himself as especially adept at working the crowd. A husband and father of three young children, McGann’s appeal stems from his quick wit and relatable take on family life and marriage. In 2017, McGann began touring as the opening act for Sebastian Maniscalco, moving with him from clubs to theater, to arenas, including four soldout shows at Madison Square Garden. McGann’s relatively short, but impressive resume, includes Montreal’s famed Just For Laughs Festival, Gilda’s LaughFest, The Great American Comedy Festival, and more. McGann still calls Chicago home.

Saturday, Feb. 11, 8 p.m. $40, $35, $30, $25. The Paramount, 370 New York Ave., Huntington. (800) 745-3000 or Ticketmaster.com or ParamountNY.com.

Yarn/Wire

Now in its 18th year, Adelphi University’s ‘new music’ series welcomes Yarn/Wire.

The intrepid New York-based piano-percussion quartet has forged a singular path with endlessly inventive collaborations, commissions and performances that have made a significant contribution to the canon of experimental works.

Barger is a frequent guest with many top American contemporary ensembles. French-American Den Boer performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician.

TERMS OF SALE Such tax liens shall be sold subject to any and all superior tax liens of sovereignties and other

municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldier’s and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts.

However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act (FIRREA), 12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et. seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) receivership.

The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed.

The rate of interest and penalty which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid.

Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount from which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase be of no further effect.

Time is of the essence in this sale. This sale is held pursuant to the Nassau County Administrative Code and interested parties are referred to such Code for additional information as to terms of sale, rights of purchasers, maximum rates of interest and other legal incidents of the sale.

Furthermore, as to the bidding, •The bidder(s) agree that they will not work with any other bidder(s) to increase, maintain or stabilize interest rates or collaborate with any other bidder(s) to gain an unfair competitive advantage in the random number generator in the event of a tie bid(s) on a tax certificate.

Bidder(s) further agree not to employ any bidding strategy designed to create an unfair competitive advantage in the tiebreaking process in the upcoming tax sale nor work with any other bidder(s) to engage in any bidding strategy that will result in a rotational award of tax certificates.

•The tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) bid, will be arrived at independently and without direct or indirect consultation, communication or agreement with any other bidder and that the tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) to be bid, have not been disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder, and will not be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder prior to the close of bidding. No attempt has been made or will be made to, directly or indirectly, induce any other bidder to refrain from bidding on any tax certificate, to submit complementary bids, or to submit bids at specific interest rates.

•The bids to be placed by the Bidder will be made in good faith and not pursuant to any direct or indirect, agreement or discussion with, or inducement from, any other bidder to submit a complementary or other noncompetitive bid.

•If it is determined that the bidder(s) have violated any of these bid requirements then their bid shall be voided and if they were the successful bidder the lien and any deposits made, in connection with, said bid shall be forfeited.

This list includes only tax liens on real estate located in Town of Hempstead. Such other tax liens on real estate are advertised as follows: Town of HempsTead

News brief D’Esposito to chair subcommittee Congressman Anthony D’Esposito was selected to serve as chairman of the Subcommittee on Emergency Management and Technology of the House of Representatives.

The subcommittee falls under the Homeland Security Committee and includes emergency preparedness/ response, crisis mitigation, resiliency and recovery efforts; private sector preparedness integration; interoperability and emergency communications; DHS grant programs; and highconsequence biological and chemical threat preparedness.

D’Esposito was selected to chair the subcommittee due to his career as both an NYPD detective and volunteer fire chief. As an NYPD Detective, D’Esposito was responsible for making over 600 arrests, and helped foil organized criminal activities. While serving as chief of the Island Park Fire

Department, D’Esposito led the volunteer organization through the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy – a storm that led to one of the largest disaster response efforts undertaken in New York State in recent memory.

The subcommittee has oversight duties covering the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Office of Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction, the Science and Technology Directorate, and the Office of Health Security.

“The power to conduct oversight should never be taken lightly and must be used to ensure transparency in our federal bureaucracy,” said D’Esposito.

“I look forward to advocating on behalf of my Long Island neighbors and making sure our Nation’s public servants are always working to advance the interests of the American people.”

Nailing down the permits

Q. We completely rebuilt in 1996, and are ready to retire and sell. Our real estate agent told us they checked our permit records and it was never signed off. Although it’s a long story, our first contractor went to jail and destroyed our original permit papers.

The second contractor never got a plumbing permit or electrical sign-offs, even though they had people do the work. Is this going to be a big problem to get everything signed off, because we want to sell within the year to take advantage of the market right now?

What can you advise?

A. Sounds like you went through a lot. Most people tell me they could write a book about their experience. You need to see your building department records and get copies of the signed and sealed plans. Many municipalities keep records either in paper form, which you may have to pay for copies of, or microfilm or computer onte eeper files.

Then speak with your inspector to find out what they think needs to be done. Most will be very helpful, and allow for the process to continue, asking you to hire a plumber to get a permit, which involves your notarized signature so you know it’s being done. In way too many cases, the plumber or contractor says it was done when it really wasn’t, so most municipalities require the owner’s signature on permit applications so the building department and owner are aware that the process is being done and is not false.

The plumber needs to see your bathrooms, kitchen, heating equipment and any other plumbing to be sure it meets the plumbing code (and building code). The same process must be done with an electrician, but most building departments ask for a certification from a private agency, not your electrician, since most building departments don’t have an electrical inspector. The reason for this is that one of the two leading causes of fire is electrical (the other being use of the kitchen) so your local government wants nothing to do with the liability for fire safety.

You’ll find that almost everyone in this process wants to avoid responsibility as much as possible.

You may have to either call for an inspection agency yourself or, if you suspect that there could be questionable electrical work, hire a licensed electrician to inspect and correct before hiring an agency to detect, if you elect. The private agency charges a few hundred dollars, usually, depending on the number of rooms and outdoor items, like air conditioning condensers, pool equipment and landscape lights, which must also be inspected. After all this is done, you may be able to get a final inspection and a sign-off and certificate from your building department, unless … your building department makes you get plans and a new survey redrawn and updated to the most recent code, which is complicated, time-consuming and expensive — in the thousands of dollars — before you can get a final inspection. Allow plenty of time.

opINIoNS

couldn’t bear the thought of people being horrified by the sight of my son,” Mamie Bradley, the mother of 14-year-old Emmett Till, a Black kid from Chicago who was tortured and murdered by white racists in Mississippi in 1955, told the press at the time.

“But on the other hand, I felt the alternative was even worse,” Bradley continued. “After all, we had averted our eyes for far too long, running away from the ugly reality facing us as a JAMES nation. Let the see what BERNSTEIN world I’ve seen.” Bradley had refused to close the lid of her son’s coffin.

What Bradley had to say then has echoed through the decades, and helped inspire America’s civil rights movement.

Her words are still relevant today.

I’ve heard many people say they “can’t look” at the televised footage of the Memphis police beating of Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old who died a few

T

days after he was brutally assaulted by five police officers, who have been charged in his death. The footage has been shown and re-shown. And you could say that seeing it once is enough.

And I agree. But I know of others who refuse to look at all.

Many are the same people who refused to look at the images of the police as they suffocated George Floyd in 2020. They also didn’t want to look at the flag-draped coffins of American service members who had been killed in Afghanistan or Iraq.

The first Bush administration banned photos or video of the caskets of dead returning veterans.

That decree wasn’t overturned until the Obama administration.

Some ask why we should look at any of it. What good does it do? To some, it’s similar to the almost unavoidable glances at an auto accident that attracts rubberneckers. Common decency should overcome the morbid desire to slow down to a crawl.

But it’s unacceptable to refuse to look at the images of Floyd as he lay gasping for breath, or of Eric Garner, who died in a prohibited police choke-

W

hold in 2014, or of Nichols as he was beaten.

In 1955, what Bradley saw was the horribly battered body and the crushed face of her son, who had traveled to the small town of Money, Mississippi, to spend a summer with his sharecropper great-uncle Moses Wright.

After work one night, young Emmett and some friends stopped at a grocery store. Accounts vary, but some say that Till whistled at the store’s white cashier, Carolyn Bryant. In the early-morning hours of Aug. 28, Roy Bryant, Carolyn’s husband, and J.W. Milam, Bryant’s half-brother, broke into Wright’s home and dragged Till out.

He was severely beaten. One of his eyes was gouged out. His nose was so bent out of shape, his mother said, that it resembled an S. Then he was taken to the Tallahatchie River, where he was shot in the head. His body was dumped into the river.

Wright reported the kidnapping to the police the following day, and Bryant and Milam were arrested. The only way police were able to identify Till was by

e don’t want to see the images of Floyd, Garner and, now, Nichols.

But we must.

a monogrammed ring he wore that had belonged to his father.

At the funeral, relatives asked Bradley to close the casket, but she refused.

Photos of her son’s body appeared in Jet magazine and the Chicago Defender, two of the most important Black publications in the United States.

Bryant and Milam were acquitted by an all-white jury that deliberated for only four hours. Years later, the FBI extracted a deathbed confession from Milam’s brother, Leslie, who admitted his own involvement. By that time, however, Bryant and J.W. Milam were long dead.

Till’s mother’s decision to let the public see what had been done to her son still resonates today.

Those who ask why we should look at any of these disturbing images say, what good does it do? The footage of Floyd, Garner and, now, Nichols, is more than painful to watch, I agree.

But the cameras don’t lie. They force us to see things we don’t want to see, but must see. When we turn away, we are lying to ourselves about the reality of what happens so often to members of minorities in this, our America.

Hot love, cold love, new love, old love

hese days, when my husband and I share affairs of the heart, there is usually anesthesia and a sameday procedure involved.

For us, Valentine’s Day, the fire sale of romantic love, doesn’t speak to a 55-year relationship. Heart-shaped cakes, red roses, pink balloons and chocolates have become cheap (although not inexpensive) symbols of love. We subscribe to a more expansive view of love that includes authentic moments, nourishing memories and new experiences in the world. We learned RANDI during the panKREISS demic that a brilliant TV movie or a sighting of a comet in a dark sky can trigger the same endorphins as “love.” It all counts.

One of the unintended consequences of living in the time of Covid-19 is an impatience with posturing and a desire for genuine emotion. Let’s sift through the dross of recent weeks for the gold nuggets. Think for a moment of the intense super-joys that give value to your days — the gifts that Hallmark and

Godiva cannot confer.

These past few weeks, I have been leading a book discussion group. I do this all the time, but suddenly this year the group is intensely wonderful. The people in our circle jelled. The talk is fast, funny and wicked smart. Maybe it seems odd to think of this meet-up in terms of love, but we need all the love we can gather, and we each get to define our own experiences.

Other random love bombs: Last week I caught a glimpse of the green-hued comet that last visited earth in prehistoric times.

It was a momentary sighting, but I thought to myself, “Be still my heart” when I spotted the ball of dust and ice that won’t swing by this way again for 55,000 years. What a show.

Two weeks ago, I saw “Shades of Spring,” a new ballet choreographed by Jessica Lang. During a fairly dull week of subpar weather, a week I would give a C+, the evening of dance was a breakout moment. The performance captivated every sense and held our attention until the last bow. It was love.

Then there is Rachel Maddow. She

E

makes my Mondays, which are the only days she’s on the air at MSNBC with commentary about the dreaded news.

An investigative pit bull with a smile on her face and a crisp sense of humor, Maddow helps mitigate the despair I feel after an intemperate eruption from Marjorie Taylor Greene. Maddow’s wit is dead on, and she is rigorous in her craft. I would not want to be in her sights, but I love being in her audience.

My life would be different, and less joyful, without Lillybee, our 5-year-old Coton. I don’t need to explain this to dog lovers.

And I can’t explain it to non-dog-lovers. We celebrated her birthday Feb. 1 with a heavy spoonful of shredded pork in her kibble. I heard her whisper, “Be still my heart.”

I love our expanding daylight, which translates to elevated moods, for me and everyone else. There is just no boogying to the 4:30 p.m. Sunset Blues. The happy dance must wait for the sun to travel closer, and it is, by the minute, and I love it.

Another love bomb in my life is pasta al dente, still the most delicious, cheap-

ven a comet in a dark sky can trigger the same magical endorphins.

est meal in America. When I’m ready to take on some carbs, a half-box of pasta with olive oil, parsley and garlic is sublime. Anytime we lust for linguine, we have this, right here in all our lives, and it is an affair of the heart as much as the belly.

Great books are the red roses that never fade. Consider the books I talked about this month: “The All of It,” by Jeannette Haien; “The Glass Hotel,” by Emily St. John Mandel; “Lila,” by Marilynne Robinson; and “Drag your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead,” by Olga Tokarczuk. The joy of disappearing into a book, giving up one’s grounding in time and space, is a gift. Then to talk about it with like-minded readers?

Enchanting.

Wordle and Spelling Bee, my twin obsessions, have the best words. For the uninitiated, these are New York Times daily word games. And they’re like crack. You can’t stop. When you figure out the puzzle, the rush is unmistakable and familiar: love.

From the ridiculous to the sublime: I embrace my friends on Valentine’s Day and every day, don’t you? They can love anybody, and they choose you, and me.

Hold them close, every precious one.

Getting what you pay for in the classroom

W

hen we think of the most influential people in our lives growing up, we’re likely to point out our parents, some members of our extended family, maybe even a religious leader or two.

But no list is complete without teachers. It’s a role so important in our development that we spend nearly 13,000 hours of our childhood in front of teachers — whether we’re learning long division, the Civil War, natural selection, Newton’s laws of motion, or even where, exactly, New York is on the planet.

Education is vital, and we depend on teachers more than anyone else to deliver it. Yet when it comes time for us to show our gratitude for their extraordinary contribution to our lives, we instead focus on debates on whether teachers are overpaid, underworked and demanding just too much.

It’s not that exploring whether teachers are appropriately compensated isn’t important — in the public sphere, at least, it’s taxpayers’ hard-earned dollars that pay their salaries. However, such discussions must be done in a way that not only provides an accurate and complete look at educator salaries, but also still respects the essential role teachers fill.

A recent analysis conducted by Newsday found that more than half of all teachers on Long Island — 31,000 of them — are making at least $100,000 a year. A handful of them earned even more — upward of $300,000 and even $400,000. Numbers, we assume, we should be outraged about.

letters Why ‘Santos, for better or worse’?

To the Editor: Assemblyman Chuck LaVine’s letter, “It’s Santos, for better or worse,” which appeared in last week’s issue, has me perplexed. The black cloud that U.S. Rep. George Santos finds himself under is clearly his doing, and his alone. If I were a constituent of his, I would welcome a call or email from another representative who understands our Long island issues.

While Lavine said he appreciated Rep. Andrew Garbarino reaching out, the tone in his reply was less than respectful. It seems that Lavine is up to his old tricks by attempting to cast shade on an otherwise respected member of Long Island’s congressional delegation, as well as the Nassau Republican Party. Here’s a concept you might not be familiar with, Chuck: Instead of bickering, try working together, for the people.

MIKE SCHNEIDER Seaford

But those specific large amounts were anomalies, not the norm. Three teachers — two with more than four decades in the classroom — retired from the Central Islip school district with a mountain of sick days for which they were due compensation. These are teachers who were in the classroom nearly every day, providing consistency for their students and saving their district the need to hire substitutes.

Making this more atypical is that Central Islip has a rather unique — and far more generous — benefits package compared with other districts on Long Island.

On average, however, teachers on Long Island made a little more than $110,000 per year. That’s what the Empire Center for Public Policy told Newsweek, pointing out that that average is higher than any other region in the state, and higher than average salaries in other states. Three of the 11 school districts with the highest wage earners were in Nassau County — Jericho, Great Neck and Syosset.

Teachers have built-in holiday breaks —including the entire summer. They are done teaching by early afternoon. Their jobs aren’t physical. Who hasn’t heard these cries about teachers whenever discussions about compensation crop up?

But we also cannot forget that teachers take work home with them. They are there after school, many times giving an extra hand to our kids, helping them get the most out of their educational experience through sports or other extracurricular activities.

And while some might argue that

teachers make up for lower pay than their private-sector counterparts with better benefits, even that can be a tricky mound to stand on. A 2021 report from the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College concluded that while teachers might earn the same as those with similar educational backgrounds in the private sector, ongoing across-the-board benefits cuts through pension reform means that new teachers have a far bleaker economic outlook than their more experienced colleagues.

That’s bad. “Uncompetitive compensation may make it harder to recruit highquality individuals into the teaching profession,” the report stated. Low-quality teachers — or worse, simply not enough teachers — means potentially low-quality education.

For a country struggling to keep up with many of our international competitors, an educational system in decline will only make the situation worse.

The United States already falls below the global average in math test scores, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

That put us well behind Singapore, Macao, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan.

And while our children’s science scores are higher than the global average, the United States remains behind Singapore, Macao, Estonia, Japan and Finland.

We must keep our public schools costs under control — absolutely. But just like anything else, we get what we pay for. And if we pay for high-quality teachers here on Long Island, we’ll continue to get them.

opinions

“m

ake lemonade out of lemons” is a saying ingrained from an early age in students across the country to teach perseverance in the face of adversity. In essence, when we’re faced with a bad situation, we navigate the circumstances to imagine a positive outcome.

When it comes to U.S. Rep. George Santos, it’s far easier to imagine a steady stream of lemon juice squirted directly into our eyes than successfully following JosH this elementary maxim. Each new LaFaZan day seems to bring a new Santos lie with it, one more outrageous than the next. From a fake resume to a fake address to a fake religion and more, Santos remains as defiant as ever in the midst of his fictional masterpiece: the most sophisticated web of lies ever created in the history of American politics.

The good news is that people of good conscience all across New York state’s 3rd Congressional District, regardless of political affiliation, are exasperated by the Talented Mr. Santos, and have had enough. Calls for him to resign ring out from the headquarters of both the Nassau Republicans and county Democrats. But being outraged isn’t a solution to our Santos problem.

Santos is an issue for the nation, but let’s not forget that he is a problem of our local creation. Therefore, the burden lies with us here in the 3rd District not just to destroy Frankenstein’s monster, but also to ensure that the next George Santos is barred from ever getting his, or her, name on the ballot.

In the meantime, what Santos — the long-lost brother of fake German heiress Anna Delvey? — has shown us is that guardrails to prevent charlatans and liars from running for office simply don’t exist in the 21st century.

GEORGE Package here in Nassau County, a series of laws named for Mr. Santos: Get Egregious Officials Removed from Government Elections. It features several proposals to keep people like Santos from ever getting elected in the first place. They include: ■ Mandatory background checks for all candidates, just like any employee of any company is subjected to.

■ Barring anyone with an open foreign arrest warrant from holding office.

■ Making it a misdemeanor for a candidate to lie about his or her education, employment history, address or income sources.

The GEORGE Package would not be a guarantor against politicians lying to get elected. It would, however, offer voters more peace of mind that they have an honest choice between two candidates, and assurance for those voters that if candidates don’t play by the rules, they, like us, will be held

accountable.

When James Madison created the framework for the Constitution, never in the wildest dreams of our founders did they envision needing laws like the GEORGE Package on the books. But just as the Constitution is a living document, our governments also must continue to evolve with the times.

And in the age of George Santos, when many politicians take an ends-justify-the-means approach to elevate lies over the truth and perpetrate fraud against the voters in order to win elections, these safeguards are needed now more than ever to protect our democracy.

My hope is that versions of the GEORGE Package pass in Mineola, in Albany and in Washington. If they do, voters across the state will be able to breathe a collective sigh of relief that no matter which candidate wins, no one who is as morally reprehensible as George Santos will be representing them.

Santos may be the lemons, but the GEORGE Package would be our lemonade. Let’s drink up.

If you’re called on to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation, you will likely be saving the life of someone you love. The members of our community need us.

Our children need us. Our neighbors need us. Our co-workers need us.

The American Heart Association recognizes this need, and has a plan to help. You can be the difference, by learning CPR to save a life. The American Heart Association is committed to being the leader in resuscitation science, education and training.

This month — American Heart Month — the American Heart Association is specifically focused on helping people learn the life-saving skill of CPR, and we want every family and home to have someone who knows it. With the help of local supporters, we can help more of our community be prepared when called on in an emergency.

I encourage you to Be the Beat by learning CPR to be the difference and save a life. To find a class near you, visit cpr.heart.org.
