Atlantic Beach Rescue held its 13th annual EMS Water Safety and Rescue Training on Aug. 30, bringing emergency responders together for hands-on training focused on water rescues and safety. The annual exercise gives EMS members an opportunity to practice responding to emergencies in the water and prepare for the unique challenges that can arise
along the South Shore. Participants reviewed rescue techniques and worked together in simulated scenarios designed to strengthen communication, coordination and response times. The training is particularly important for communities such as Atlantic Beach, where residents and visitors spend much of the summer near the ocean, beaches and waterways.
The annual program also serves as a reminder of the importance of preparedness for local emergency responders. Through continued training, Atlantic Beach EMS members work to ensure
they are ready to respond quickly and effectively when a water-related emergency occurs, helping keep beachgoers and residents safe. — Melissa Berman

Atlantic Beach, Five Towns affected by nor’easter
October 1, 2026 — SOUTH SHORE RECORD
By MELISSA BERMAN mberman@liherald.com
A weekend nor’easter brought heavy rain, strong winds, elevated tides and localized flooding to the Five Towns and Atlantic Beach, although the area avoided the more severe impacts experienced elsewhere along Long Island’s South Shore. The storm, which began Friday and continued through Monday, dropped 3.5 inches of rain in Lawrence, with sustained winds approaching 35 mph and gusts reaching 50 mph, according to village officials. Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman warned Sunday that the storm’s effects were not yet over, even as winds and rainfall began to weaken. “It is not over,” Blakeman said. “While the wind is dying down and the rain will just be a trickle compared to what we’ve had the last couple of days, the ground is saturated with water. That means roots are loosened. It doesn’t take much for a tree, especially one full of leaves, to fall over.” Blakeman said sustained winds of about 20 mph were expected Monday, with gusts reaching 30 to 40 mph at times. Light to moderate rain was expected to continue through Monday morning. Atlantic Beach experienced flooded streets and fallen tree limbs as strong winds swept through the village.

Peninsula Boulevard in the Five Towns was flooded by Cedarhurst Avenue due to the heavy wind and rain during this weekend’s nor’easter. “AB Rescue was doing a survey of our beaches late [Sunday] afternoon to see if there was any erosion,” Atlantic Beach Mayor Barry Frohlinger wrote in a text message. Blakeman identified communities along the South Shore, from Atlantic Beach through East Rockaway and Massapequa, as areas of concern. He said Long Beach, Lido Beach and Freeport were expected to experience more severe effects. In Hewlett Harbor, Mayor Dominic Calandrella said village crews responded throughout the storm, including to a resident who became stranded in high-tide waters. “At one point, [I] encountered a resi-
dent who was stuck in high tide waters,” Calandrella wrote in an email. “[I] assisted her and safely brought her to dry land.” The village’s harbor master worked double shifts to assist residents, while additional Department of Public Works crews were available to remove several trees that fell into roadways. “All in all, we weathered the storm well, and our residents did their part by calling to notify the Village of any emergency situations,” Calandrella wrote. In Lawrence, officials said the village prepared ahead of the storm by clearing catch basins, monitoring conditions, testing emergency communications and coordinating with county and emergen-
cy-service agencies. “I want to thank the residents of Lawrence for their cooperation, caution, and attention to the information provided by the Village,” Mayor Samuel Nahmias wrote in a statement. “I am equally grateful to everyone who worked tirelessly to prepare and protect our community.” Village Administrator Gerry Castro said officials sought to balance preparedness with avoiding unnecessary alarm. “The storm was what we prepared for,” Castro wrote. “We did not want to hype the situation, but we also did not want to underplay it.” PSEG Long Island reported that more than 93,700 customers had power restored by Sunday afternoon, while 18,501 remained without power across its service area. Despite the storm, local officials credited residents, municipal workers, first responders and emergency agencies with helping the Five Towns weather the weekend. Calandrella said the response reflected the close-knit nature of Hewlett Harbor. “We have created a Village that feels more like a family, where neighbors look out for and help one another rather than living as strangers who don’t care about each other,” he wrote. “I’m proud and grateful to lead as mayor in this wonderful village called Hewlett Harbor.”
N.Y.S Education Department moves to create one H.S. Diploma By AIDAN WARSHAVSKY Students in the Hewlett-Woodmere and Lawrence school districts could face significantly different graduation requirements beginning in 2028 as New York state moves forward with a plan to change the role of Regents exams and establish a single state high school diploma. The state Board of Regents authorized the state Education Department on Sept. 14 to move forward with the next phase of NY Inspires, its multiyear effort to transform graduation requirements. The proposed regulatory changes have not yet received final approval. The initiative follows years of statewide stakeholder engagement and recommendations from the Blue Ribbon Commission on Graduation Measures. The commission grew out of an effort announced by the Board of Regents in 2019 to reconsider what a New York state high school diploma should signify and how students demonstrate what they have learned. Board of Regents Chancellor Lester W. Young Jr. and state Education Commissioner Betty A. Rosa addressed the panel’s purpose in a November 2023 pamphlet titled “Blue Ribbon Commission on Graduation Members. “Prior to entering into this process, we knew the current system wasn’t working for all students,” the pamphlet read. “The intent of this initiative was never to lower the standards […] it focused on placing all New York State students on a success tra-

Graduation requirements could look very different come 2028, as New York State moves to adopt one high school diploma. jectory by providing them access to the necessary opportunities and supports they need.” Under the proposed implementation plan, students graduating beginning in January 2028 would transition to one state high school diploma. They would no longer be required to pass a prescribed set of Regents exams to graduate. Students may choose to take the test, with their achievements potentially recognized through seals or endorsements. There is no change to the current graduation requirements. The Education Department plans to advance proposed regulatory amendments
to the Board of Regents by February 2027. Dina Anzalone, the superintendent for Hewlett-Woodmere, discussed the proposal at the Sept. 16 Board of Education meeting. Anzalone said she believes Regents exams would continue to play a role in measuring student competency — in academics such as reading, English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies — which would comply with federal assessment requirements. “Will the regents be going away completely,” Anzalone questioned. “No… It’s still a proposed regulatory change that the board of regents has not yet formalized. They will, by June of 2027, and we will

Rambam’s Bezalel Graber ranks among nation’s best By MELISSA BERMAN mberman@liherald.com
Rambam Mesivta senior Bezalel Graber, 17, of West Hempstead, has been named a semifinalist in the 2027 National Merit Scholarship Program, recognizing him among the nation’s highest-achieving high school students. Rambam Mesivta in Lawrence serves students from the Five Towns, Queens, Brooklyn, Great Neck, Plainview, West Hempstead, and the greater Long Island. Graber is one of approximately 16,000 students nationwide selected as semifinalists in the prestigious scholarship program. About 95 percent of semifinalists are expected to advance to the finalist stage, with roughly half of the finalists ultimately receiving National Merit Scholarships. For Graber, the recognition was both exciting and an opportunity that could help him as he prepares for college. “It’s a pretty big deal, I feel like,” Graber said. “Hopefully, it will help me get into a good college.” Graber earned a 1550 on the SAT, including a 750 in math. He said he did not do extensive preparation for the exam. At Rambam, Graber has pursued a range of academic and extracurricular interests. He is the head of the school’s Creative Writing Club and a member of its chess team. He also enjoys mathematics and science, particularly chemistry and physics, although he has not yet decided what he wants to study in college. Creative writing has been a particularly important part of his Rambam experience. The school’s Rambam Writers Guild has 25 students who write short stories based on prompts and then gather to critique one another’s work.

Rambam Mesivta senior Bezalel Graber, 17, of West Hempstead, has been named a semifinalist in the 2027 National Merit Scholarship Program. Principal Hillel Goldman said Graber serves as editor-in-chief of the school’s annual collection of student writing, known as the “Edgar Allen Prose.” The publication features stories written by members of the Writers Guild. “It’s a very big academic club in school,” Goldman said. Graber said he enjoys the opportunity to receive
criticism and advice on his writing while reading the work of his classmates. “It’s a lot of fun,” he said. Beyond academics and extracurricular activities, Graber has taken on a leadership role in the Rambam community. Goldman said Graber also serves as the school’s gabbai, helping organize and lead prayer services and reading from the Torah approximately every other week. “He takes that community service piece very seriously also,” Goldman said. Goldman said Graber’s National Merit recognition reflects not only his academic ability, but also his involvement in the broader school community. “He’s a tremendous academic, but he’s not an isolated person,” Goldman said. “He’s out there getting involved in the community, and that’s something that we’re very proud of.” Graber said his favorite part of attending Rambam has been the school’s teachers and the impact they have had on his development. “I’ve grown a lot over the past few years as a result of the culture and the teachers in this school,” he said. “It is a great school.” As he looks ahead to the rest of his senior year, Graber is also preparing for a gap year in Israel before beginning college. Outside of school, he enjoys chess, board games, math and science. He is also a fan of Dungeons & Dragons and played softball during his freshman year. Goldman said Graber joins a long list of Rambam students who have been recognized through the National Merit program. “We’ve had a number of students over the years,” Goldman said. “He’s joining a great rank of really special Rambam students.”

HERALD EDitoRiAL
Celebrating newspapers and local reporting
N
ational Newspaper Week, Oct. 4–10, is an opportunity to focus attention on something Long Islanders experience every day but can easily take for granted: the value of having journalists paying attention to your own community. Long Island is home to roughly 2.9 million people, divided among two counties and 285 distinct communities, which include two cities, 13 towns, 97 villages and 173 hamlets and two cities. There are hundreds of school districts, libraries, fire departments and civic organizations, too. Being sure that the important stories in all of these municipalities, organizations and more are adequately covered sounds like a job for Superman. In this case, however, the brigade of Clark Kents and Lois Lanes show up in the form of journalists, from newspapers big and small. A reporter covering a village board meeting might be the only journalist in the room when trustees debate a zoning change, a development proposal, a new law or a decision that could affect your property taxes. A reporter covering a school district might follow a proposed budget, ask questions about spending and report on decisions that directly affect students and their families. Those stories may never attract national attention. They may not go viral on social media. But for the people who live in those communities — the readers the Herald serves — these stories matter. The same is true of county government, town boards, planning and zoning boards,
libraries, parks and recreation departments and local elections. Hyperlocal journalism puts a spotlight on decisions that can have an immediate effect on where people live, work, send their children to school and spend their tax dollars. And that coverage creates accountability. Public officials know that their actions are being observed and reported. School administrators know that budget decisions will be examined. And community members have a place to turn when they want to understand what is happening in their own backyard. That doesn’t mean local newspapers exist simply to scrutinize government. Some of the most important work community journalists do has little to do with politics or public policy. Local newspapers celebrate accomplishments that might otherwise go unnoticed. At the Herald, one of our favorite things to do is introduce readers to neighbors who are making a difference. Local newspapers chronicle local businesses, community organizations, libraries, charitable efforts and cultural events. We cover high school sports, from championship teams to the performance of individual student-athletes. Those stories become part of a community’s history. Years from now, today’s newspaper stories can help residents understand what their town, village or school district was like, who its leaders were, what issues mattered and how the community responded to challenges and celebrated successes. That historical role is easy to overlook when the newspaper arrives each week or a story
appears online. But the cumulative record created by community journalism is one of its most important contributions. Local journalism also provides something increasingly difficult to find in an era of information overload: a trusted focus on place. Readers can find thousands of stories about Washington, Albany, national politics and international affairs with a few taps on a phone. But there is no substitute for a journalist who knows the local neighborhood, recognizes the people involved and understands why a particular issue matters to the community. Supporting local journalism can be as simple as subscribing to the Herald, visiting our website, sharing stories with friends and neighbors and paying attention to the reporting that keeps a community informed. Businesses and civic organizations can support local publications through advertising and partnerships. National Newspaper Week is a reminder that journalism doesn’t happen only in major newsrooms or on national television. It happens in village halls, school board rooms, town halls, courtrooms, athletic fields, community centers and Main Streets all across Long Island. The Herald is there wherever people gather to make decisions, solve problems, celebrate accomplishments and build their communities. If you appreciate our work, please let us know. And if we can do better, let us know that, too. Reach out to execeditor@liherald. com or (516) 569-4000 ext. 201.

Marc Mero, a retired professional wrestler and motivational speaker, presented his Champion of Choices Tour to Woodmere Middle School students on Sept. 25.
Marc Mero inspires students to overcome adversity By MELISSA BERMAN mberman@liherald.com
Marc Mero knows what it means to fall down. During his career as a professional wrestler and amateur boxer, he performed in front of thousands of fans. Away from the ring, however, Mero faced addiction, depression, family loss and difficult choices. Mero, 66, brought that message of resilience to Woodmere Middle School, speaking to sixth, seventh and eighth graders as part of his Champions of Choices Tour on Sept. 25. The program was organized by WMS Principal John Andruszkiewicz and the school’s Parent Teacher Association. Mero, a retired professional wrestler and motivational speaker, is best known for his appearances with the World Wrestling Federation under his real name and with World Championship Wrestling and NWA Total Nonstop Action under the ring name Johnny B. Badd. His presentation focused less on his wrestling career and more on the personal struggles that shaped his life. Mero spoke openly about his battle with drug and alcohol addiction, the loss of two siblings and his parents at a young age, and the consequences of keeping difficult emotions bottled up. “I believe today would be a changing day in your life,” Mero said. “I want you to dream bigger than you have ever dreamt before. Most importantly, I don’t want you to ever give up. It’s all about choices.” Mero encouraged students to write down their dreams and goals, explaining that he began doing so when he was 10 years old. He said the goals he recorded as a child helped him stay focused on the future, including his dream of becoming a professional athlete. He urged the students to put their goals somewhere they would see them every day and, more importantly, to take action toward achieving them.
He also told students that keeping pain and difficult experiences inside can lead to destructive behavior and urged anyone struggling to speak with a trusted adult, whether a parent, teacher, counselor or another person they trust. “Please, please hear this,” Mero said. “I have been inside, and what happens when you hold something inside that you’re going through? It’s like a volcano. Sooner or later, that volcano erupts.” Shana Milillo, co-president of the WMS PTA, said Andruszkiewicz was instrumental in bringing Mero to the school after having seen his presentation previously. “He really knew about Marc Mero’s Choices Tour,” Milillo said. “He could not say enough about how inspirational it was to him.” Milillo said the PTA believed the presentation was particularly important for middle school students, who can face significant social and emotional pressures. “We think it’s really important for the kids to see a positive influence and hear that everything is going to be OK,” she said. “Middle school’s a hard time.” Milillo said Mero’s message also addressed the impact of social media, the importance of families spending time together and the need for students to feel comfortable seeking help when they are struggling. Mero challenged the students to stand up against bullying, abuse and depression and to become positive influences in their school and community. “It’s not how many times you get knocked down,” he told the students. “It’s how many times you get back up.” For Mero, that message has been central to his own journey — from the boxing ring and wrestling arenas to overcoming addiction and dedicating his career to helping young people make better choices. “It’s not how many times you get knocked down,” Mero said. “It’s how many times you get back up.”
