June 1-7 is national CPR and AED Awareness Week, which aims to raise awareness and increase the number of people who perform CPR in cardiac arrest emergencies. Each year, more than 350,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur in the United States. About 90 percent of people who suffer out-of-hospital cardiac arrests die.

When a person has a cardiac arrest, survival depends on immediately receiving CPR from someone nearby. CPR, especially if performed immediately, can triple a cardiac arrest victim’s chance of survival.

“Every second counts in cardiac arrest,” said Dr. Russell Schiff, director of Ambulatory

Pediatric Cardiology at Northwell Health and vice president of the American Heart Association’s Long Island board of directors.

“Bystanders are absolutely critical in a cardiac arrest emergency. What if it were your mom or dad, husband or wife, sister or brother, friend or someone standing next to you ... having a cardiac arrest? You would want to know what to do.”

Only 46 percent of people who experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest receive fast help. To increase the likelihood, hands-only CPR, which has two steps: call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest can be done until help arrives.

TOWN Residents call on town to get Dejana trucks off local roads

BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

FACEBOOK

Fort Salonga and Kings Park residents are calling on Town of Smithtown officials for a second time to take steps to address the issue of commercial vehicles cutting through their neighborhood streets.

Several Kings Park residents attended the May 24 Smithtown town board meeting to ask for elected officials help in addressing an increasing number of Dejana Truck & Utility Equipment company trucks driving through their local residential streets, particularly Orchard Drive. Kings Park and Fort Salonga residents have been pushing for the issue to be addressed since February.

“The community is extremely upset,” said Karen Wellus, of Fort Salonga. “Dejana is pretty much running wild and doing whatever they want with very little input from the community and those of us who are affected.”

Dejana currently has an application pending with the town to construct a second building next to its current existing facility, at 490 Pulaski Road in Kings Park, according to town spokeswoman Nicole Garguilo.

While the building is under construction, the company has been entering and exiting the site using an entrance on Pulaski Road, which is a county-owned road.

“Dejana Trucking has still not acknowledged the traffic and safety concerns of Fort

Inside Dejana Truck & Utility Equipment’s Kings Park facility Salonga residents that we brought to their attention in a petition February 2018,” Orchard Drive resident Kathleen Montemurro said, reading from a letter sent out to the community. “To summarize, Suffolk County mandates that all trucks exiting the new Dejana facility must exit eastbound on Pulaski Road. The most expedient route is to turn around and head westbound through Orchard Drive.”

Melissa Langino, an Orchard Drive resident, said as a mother of four children under age 10 that she is highly concerned about increased truck traffic and possibly larger vehicles coming down her residential block, rather than sticking to larger roadways.

“I think they have a legitimate argument, that if you send traffic out right-turn only they will, but through the residential areas

instead of driving all the way north to Main Street in Kings Park to head west,” Supervisor Ed Wehrheim (R) said.

The supervisor said he has instructed members of the town’s Department of Public Safety to evaluate traffic on Orchard Drive while he reaches out to Suffolk County to discuss the issue.

“We are currently exploring traffic flow options for the property,” read a statement from the town.

Wehrheim said he has also reached out to Dejana’s attorney Vincent Trimarco to see if the company would be willing to have a traffic signal installed at their property’s entrance on Pulaski Road to allow trucks to safely exit heading westbound. The trucking company would be responsible for paying for the signal’s installation, according to the supervisor.

Trimarco could not be reached for comment by press time, but Smithtown town officials said they’ve been informed that, “his client is willing to work with the community.”

The town was also in court against Dejana May 29 for violating the zoning code by allegedly storing commercial vehicles outdoors. Wehrheim said the trucking company purchased a new piece of property, graded it and is allegedly storing trucks there.

“We’ll clean that issue up in court and hopefully have some answers from the county on whether they will make an application to put a traffic signal in,” Wehrheim said.

TOWN Smithtown hosts Breathe for Britt 5K for charity

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

MEGHAN SCHEIDT

Smithtown runners are preparing to take big strides and breathe deep to support a local nonprofit that helps people suffering from cystic fibrosis.

The Breathe for Britt Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting people suffering from cystic fibrosis and their families, will be hosting its 4th annual Breathe for Britt 5K run/walk June 2 at the Smithtown Elementary School. The funds raised from the race will be used to support the foundation in its efforts to help those diagnosed with cystic fibrosis and their families.

“This race lets people become aware of what CF is and what the foundation has to offer to them and those with CF who might not know this is offered to them,” Louise Nichols, the co-race director for the Breathe for Britt foundation, said.

Started in 2015, the race has grown to have 150 runners last year of all ages. Laura Bence, director of the Breathe for Britt Foundation, said she expects a similar number of people to attend this year’s event.

The foundation runs multiple programs to emotionally and financially support those suffering from cystic fibrosis and their families. The organization has bought groceries, laptops and even paid the electric bills for affected families who could not afford it.

Bence and her organization has also helped patients make doctors’ appointments and taken them to the hospital when they had no other means.

The nonprofit also provides opportunities

such as doing salon work for the patients in their hospital beds and even larger events like Gimme-a-Break! Day, when every month a different patient from the Cystic Fibrosis Center of Cohen Children’s Medical Center in New Hyde Park is brought on a day out to a concert, amusement park, sporting event and more.

“Some of our patients can be in hospitals for months at a time, and it can be so difficult to feel normal,” Katherine Henthorne, a cystic fibrosis social worker at Cohen’s Medical Center and Long Island Jewish Medical Center said. “It’s just so important for their quality of life. Some of our patients are affluent, they are wealthy and they have things, and other families don’t. They have to make them feel like normal people.”

The foundation is named after Brittney Braun, a young woman with who died from complications of cystic fibrosis at the age of 14. Those who remember her know that she had a knack for putting life into perspective.

“She had a lot of spunk, a lot of personality, even if she went through a lot,” Bence said.

“She was the type of person that you had to earn her love and respect, but once you did she was amazing. She had such a big impact on my life in the years that I knew her.”

Kings Park resident Brian Kane, who volunteered at Stony Brook University’s Children Hospital and became Brittney’s godfather, helped to found the organization along with Bence. He passed away in 2012.

Bence said she remembered how shortly after Brittney’s death Kane gathered her and others who knew Brittney so they could focus their loss into something positive.

More than 150 runners participated in the Breathe for Britt 5K that is held in memory of Brittney Braun, inset, in 2017.

“I took the [director] position to honor both of their memories,” Bence said.

Cystic fibrosis is a disease caused by a genetic mutation that forces the body to produce a thick mucus along the organ’s lining. That mucus builds up over time in the lungs, pancreas and other organs, trapping in bacteria that can lead to infections and extensive lung damage.

Approximately one out of every 31 people in the United States are carriers for cystic fibrosis, according to the nonprofit Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. If both parents are carriers, there is a 25 percent chance the child will be born with the disease. The average life expectancy for those afflicted who live past childhood is approximately 43 years,

according to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

“Most of our patients unfortunately die from respiratory failure,” Henthorne said. “[Brittney’s] story was very sad, but to have this in memory of her, it’s really amazing.”

The Breathe for Britt 5K will take place at Smithtown Elementary School, located at 51 Lawrence Ave. in Smithtown. Preregistration costs $25 for adults, $20 for those age 17 and under. Day of registration costs $30 for adults, $25 for those age 17 and under. Awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in each age group.

Check-in will run from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. with the race starting at 9 a.m. rain or shine.

For more information, contact the race director at breatheforbritt@yahoo.com.

Funeral held for Hauppauge NYPD cop killed in crash Hundreds of mourners gathered in Smithtown May 25 to say goodbye to one of New York’s bravest who was taken too soon.

A funeral was held Friday for New York City police officer John Martinez, of Hauppauge, who was killed in an upstate car crash earlier this week. One lane of East Main Street was closed as a full police motorcade escorted Martinez’s body from St. James Funeral Home to the funeral Mass celebrated at St. Patrick R.C. Church.

Martinez, 39, was killed in a single-car crash with fellow NYPD officer and Huntington Station resident Michael Colangelo, 31, a single-car crash May 20 in Shandaken.

New York State police said Colangelo was driving a 2018 Maserati southbound on Oliveria Road at approximately 11:23 p.m. when he lost control of the vehicle, striking a large tree and flipping the car. The vehicle came to a stop on its roof.

Colangelo and Martinez were both pronounced dead at the scene of the crash. A third person was transported to Albany Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries, according to state police spokesman Trooper Steven Nevel.

Colangelo was a member of NYPD’s canine unit who had married his sweetheart, Katherine Berger, earlier that day at the

Full Moon Resort in the Hudson Valley.

Martinez worked for the NYPD’s 84th Precinct’s detective squad.

The men had departed from Full Moon Resort, but their planned destination was not known, according to Nevel. State police originally reported Martinez was driving at the time of collision, but after interviewing witnesses and reviewing autopsy reports, lat-

er determined it was actually Colangelo who was behind the wheel.

Nevel said the stretch of Oliveria Road is very rural, with curves and no street lighting. State police said based on skid marks left on the roadway the vehicle was traveling well in excess of the posted 40 mph speed limit at the time of the accident.

State police said May 23 that a prelimi-

nary accident analysis revealed the vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed when it left the roadway, and neither Colangelo or Martinez were wearing seat belts. The investigation is ongoing pending accident reconstruction and toxicology results.

Martinez is survived by his wife and two children. See more photos online at www. tbrnewsmedia.com.

COUNTY Frankie’s Freezer provides pops to soothe cancer patients

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

— Delaney Unger

KYLE BARR

For the young cancer patients at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, one of the worst side effects from chemotherapy, beyond the pain and the nausea, is mouth sores.

The best way to soothe the pain, according to 12-year-old cancer survivor Delaney Unger, is with ice pops.

“When I had mouth sores, I had to tell my dad right away, because I knew they would get worse if I didn’t treat them right,” Delaney said. “Sometimes using other stuff would make [the pain] worse, so I would usually eat ice pops.”

Stony Brook Children’s Hospital announced May 3 it would be taking part in the nonprofit American Childhood Cancer Organization’s Take a Pop, Share a Smile campaign that donates a lifetime supply of freezer pops to hospitals for its cancer patients. The hospital will receive a total of 2,000 ice pops to start, and the ACCO will keep the freezer consistently stocked every year.

To hold the new bounty of ice pops is a new freezer named Frankie’s Freezer, which was dedicated in memory of Francis “Frankie” Antonawich, a 25-year-old who died in February from Hodgkin lymphoma before he could realize his dream of becoming a pediatric oncology nurse.

“I think he would have been thrilled about this, because he really loved kids,” Antonawich’s mother and assistant director of nursing at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Lynn Antonawich, said. “He not only felt that he could help a child, but also the parents of those children who would feel helpless.”

His father, Frank Antonawich, told an audience of Girl Scouts and families at a press conference May 3, trying to hold back tears, that the disease never stopped his son.

“Frank was a very active young man — it never stopped him going to work, going to the gym — he even continued to volunteer as a wrestling coach at his alma mater, St. John the Baptist Parish,” he said.

Stony Brook Children’s Hospital pediatric nurse specialist Lisa Rendina, who had worked with the family before and during Frankie Antonawich’s treatment, decided she wanted to get involved and contacted the ACCO, which donated the freezer too.

“As a mother, my heart broke for Lynn, and I wanted to do something to honor Frankie,” she said. “We just wanted to bring Frankie’s story to life.”

‘When I had mouth sores, I had to tell my dad right away, because I knew they would get worse if I didn’t treat them right. Sometimes using other stuff would make [the pain] worse, so I would usually eat ice pops.’

Childhood cancer survivor and member of Centereach Girl Scout Troop 105 Erin Ersoy, below left, colors in Band-Aids.

Rendina is the leader of Girl Scout Troop 105. Her troop, along with other members from Girl Scouts Service Unit 45 from Centereach, attended the unveiling. Scouts wrote inspirational phrases all over the freezer like “No one fights alone” and “The one who falls and gets up is so much stronger than the one who never fell.”

The event also honored three cancer survivors from Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, including Delaney, 12-year-old Erin Ersoy and 10-year-old Aubri Krauss, all of whom are Girl Scouts from Centereach.

The parents of the three girls agreed that ice pops were one of the simplest ways to deal with the mouth sores, while also aiding in hydration and nutrition.

“I remember what happened with my daughter and mouth sores, it was terrible,” said Delaney’s father Berk Unger of his

daughter who finished her final treatment last August. “Ice pops were the only thing that helped.”

Lynn Antonawich said her son was in such severe pain following a stem cell transplant that he couldn’t eat.

“They were thinking of tube feeding him,” she said. “And he was a 24-year-old man. I couldn’t imagine what the pain must be like for a kid.”

Those who work in the children’s hospital said one of the most important things young patients need is to feel like their lives are as normal as possible.

“Anything helps,” Lynn Antonawich said.

“From donations of gifts, such as iPads and game systems, they are able to take part in a more normal life like they would at home.”

Town of Smithtown officials paid tribute to the life of a Commack resident by making him the first member of an elite set of hometown heroes.

Smithtown officials and members of Lt. Christopher Raguso’s family gathered May 20 at Hoyt Farm Park Preserve in Commack to honor him as the first inductee of Heroes Hill, a new town memorial for volunteer firefighters who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

“This is a symbol of our undying gratitude, our respect and reverence this community holds for Lt. Chris Raguso and all who sacrificed everything to serve here at home and abroad,” Supervisor Ed Wehrheim (R) said.

Raguso was one of seven members of New York’s 106th rescue unit killed in the line-of-duty March 15 when a H-60 Pave Hawk helicopter crashed while carrying out a mission in support of Operation Inherent Resolve, an American-led mission to defeat ISIS in Iraq and Syria, according to the U.S. Department of Defense.

The unveiling of Heroes Hill was kept private to Raguso’s family and close friends, so they would be able to view the monument prior to the public. It is located adjacent to the veterans memorial and bears the engraving, “In honor of our volunteer firefighter who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.”

In addition to serving in the U.S. military, Raguso joined the Commack Fire Department in 2000. He served as captain of Company 2 before stepping up as lieutenant of Company 4, located off Kings Park Road. Raguso was posthumously bestowed the rank of honorary fire chief based on a unanimous vote of the Commack Fire Department’s membership March 16.

Raguso was also a 13-year veteran of the FDNY, where he served the majority of his

COUNTY

Bellone talks public safety, economic development in State of County

BY ALEX PETROSKI ALEX@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

PERSONALIZED SERVICE & SALES FREE COMPUTERIZED WATER ANALYSIS

Editorial comment Page A22

ALEX PETROSKI

In his annual State of the County address, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) touted recent initiatives while also keeping an eye on both the near and distant future. The executive spoke for more than an hour from the auditorium stage at Newfield High School in Selden in front of a crowd of county, town and village lawmakers, students and others.

“I can tell you that the state of Suffolk County — this amazing place that we all call home — is strong,” Bellone said. “I remain committed to making Suffolk County a model for effective and efficient government, a government that is as good as the people it is there to represent. We can build a stronger economic future, we can protect our water quality, we can transform this government, and we can do big things in Suffolk County and on Long Island if we do them together.”

Though he admitted the state of the county government, “remains a work in progress,” Bellone called on both political parties to look past the issues that divide them and remember the things that unite Americans. He honored the four Suffolk County native airmen of the 106th Rescue Wing, based out of Westhampton, who died as a result of a helicopter crash while carrying out a mission in Iraq in March,

‘I can tell you that the state of Suffolk County — this amazing place that we all call home — is strong.’

— Steve Bellone

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone delivers his State of the County address May 24 at Newfield High School in Selden. including Commack resident Master Sgt. Christopher Raguso and Port Jefferson Station resident Staff Sgt. Dashan Briggs.

“These are the individuals that make our country great,” Bellone said.

The executive spent a large chunk of his speech on public safety and the work of the Suffolk County Police Department, specifically a decreasing rate of opioid related overdoses and violent crime, and reported that last year 222 arrests were made in connection with the violent gang MS-13.

While discussing public safety, Bellone detailed the recently implemented SHARE initiative. The program — Shar-

ing to Help Access Remote Entry — allows participating school districts to connect closed circuit security camera systems directly to SCPD, who can access surveillance footage in real time in the event of active shooter situations on school campuses.

He gave a nod to the students locally and across the country organizing marches and walkouts to protest for stricter gun control laws in the wake of more high-casualty school shooting incidents around the U.S. “It has been inspiring to see young people speak out on issues, organize rallies, run for school boards and demand more of their elected officials,” he said.

“Your voices will be heard.”

The county executive made numerous references to the state of government and politics in Washington D.C., specifically in making a pledge that he and his colleagues “will not rest” until the State and Local Tax deduction, which was repealed as part of the federal tax overhaul bill passed in 2017, were restored. The elimination of the deduction stands to cost residents in high-property tax areas — like Suffolk County — thousands of dollars more than previous years.

Bellone stressed the importance of economic development through downtown revitalization projects — like upper Port Jefferson’s Uptown Funk plan — and streamlining public transportation around these hubs as a means to foster an environment in which young people can afford to live in Suffolk County going forward through the creation of quality jobs.

“We spend a lot of money educating our kids here,” the county executive said. “Too many of them have left for other parts of the country, where they are helping to power their regional economies. We have to stop that.”

Bellone called water quality a critical issue for all Suffolk County residents. The county has made funding available for septic system improvements for homeowners, which would help reduce the amount of nitrogen polluting Long Island’s waterways. He also recently implemented a recycling program for six county school districts.

Budding physicist

Accompsett Middle School seventh-grader John Galletta is a future budding physicist in the Smithtown school district. So when he had a chance to initiate an online question and answer session with a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, he jumped at the opportunity.

award-winning physicist Kip Thorne in late March at Stony Brook University. After encouraging his student to watch it, John had some questions about the lecture after watching it online. His teacher encouraged him to reach out to Thorne, who responded to his questions about gravity and quantum effects.

Pictured above, Mincieli with his student, John.

Flags for freedom

To honor local military heroes this Memorial Day, Accompsett Middle School in the Smithtown school district organized its second annual Flags for Freedom program. Organized by the school’s Parent-Teacher Association and the National Junior

Honor Society, participants could purchase a flag for $25 in honor or memory of loved ones who have or are serving in the military.

The PTA and members of the National Junior Honor Society worked May 17 to clean up the

flower beds and set up the flags.

Profits from the sale of the flags will be donated to America’s VetDogs, a Smithtown-based nonprofit organization that helps veterans with service dogs, and Boots on the Ground, a veterans activity center.

SMITHTOWN SCHOOL DISTRICT

It was a unity that was always meant to be for the letters Q and U. The kindergarten students at Tackan Elementary School in the Smithtown school district celebrated the marriage of the two letters May 25.

Invited guests, friends and family, as well as all of the letters of the alphabet, came out to join the two letters as they officially tied the knot. Tackan Elementary School Principal Allyn Leeds served as the officiant.

Since the beginning of the school year, the kindergartners have been learning the sounds that letters make together and that letters, such as Q and U, appear together.

The students performed a variety of songs, concluding with “Forever Young” to a slideshow of photos from their first year of school.

TOWN

St. James community honors all veterans St. James residents wore red, white and blue and lined the streets this Memorial Day to pay solemn remembrance to those who have served our country.

St. James held its annual Memorial Day parade and remembrance

ceremony May 28. The parade stepped off from Woodlawn and Lake avenues at 10 a.m. featuring local marching bands, fire departments and both Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops.

The community gathered for a

wreath-laying ceremony outside St. James Elementary School. Each veterans group laid a wreath at the memorial. Then the names of those veterans who have passed away in the last year were read, while a bell was rung.

Clockwise from above, Kyle Zawadzki clears the ball out of traffic; Sean Byrne moves into Half Hollow Hills East’s zone; Andrew Arce shoots; Matt Caddigan pressures to get a look at the goal; and Caddigan passes the ball.

Bulls bounce back to tie, but fall in OT to HHH East

BY BILL LANDON Smithtown West’s boys lacrosse team found itself in an unfamiliar position this season.

Down four goals in the third quarter, the Bulls bounced back to tie the game 7-7 and eventually take a 10-9 lead, but a lastminute goal forced overtime, where the No. 2-seeded boys lacrosse team fell to No. 3 Half Hollow Hills East in the Class A semifinals May 24 at Islip High School.

With Smithtown West down four goals, seniors Kyle Zawadzki and Andrew Arce each scored twice, and junior Matt Caddigan made the go-ahead goal to give the Bulls their first lead of the game with six seconds left in the third quarter at 8-7.

Half Hollow Hills East’s Mike Gomez found the net four minutes into the final quarter, but Arce stretched the net three minutes later to retake the lead, 9-8. The Thunderbirds countered again, but Arce continued to have an answer, scoring his fourth goal of the game for a 10-9 Bulls lead with 3:22 left to play.

With a minute left, Half Hollow Hills East forced overtime, and held the ball for one shot in the final seconds of a fourminute overtime period, which gave the Thunderbirds a sudden-death victory.

Smithtown West, which had outscored its opponents 204-101 this season, ended the year with a 15-2 record.

OPINION Editorial

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) admitted in his 2018 State of the County address last week that our county, our home, remains a constant work in progress. We couldn’t agree more. There needs to be action taken to push for more concrete progress now, instead of just talking about the potential Suffolk has.

Many of the quality-of-life issues addressed by Bellone are no surprise to Long Islanders. The high cost of living and economic stress it creates, need for affordable housing, improvements to public transportation to reduce traffic, and tackling our county’s narcotic drug abuse and gang violence are daily issues we struggle with. And these aren’t new problems.

Bellone first recognized that “young people have been leaving our region at record rates for 20 years in search of opportunity and in search of a place to live other than their parents basements” in his 2012 State of the County address. Enrollment in most of the county’s school districts is dwindling as families are moving off Long Island to pursue their version of the American Dream.

The true question is how much progress has been made toward meeting housing demands, creating opportunities for better-paying jobs, improving the Long Island Rail Road and other public transportation while addressing crime in the last six years?

A Connect Long Island master plan to construct new transitoriented housing centers was presented by Bellone in 2015. While we’ve seen ground broken on Port Jefferson’s Uptown Funk project, key plans like the Ronkonkoma hub, Huntington Station’s revitalization, Heartland Town Square in Brentwood off Commack Road and other promised projects are either just getting underway or largely still lofty ideals sketched on paper.

Residents have spoken out against many of these planned housing developments in rallies at town halls and roadway intersections.

Location is key, and we are tired of seeing open green space slated for development when there’s plenty of vacant storefronts and zombie houses in residential areas.

Let’s not forget the affordable aspect. Recently opened housing projects in Huntington Station are quoting a rent of more than $2,300 a month for a one-bedroom apartment, when the median income for Suffolk workers is about $41,000 a year, according to the U.S. Census 2012-2016 American Community Survey. That’s not far off from apartment costs in parts of New York City, which don’t require a commute.

Electrification of the LIRR’s eastern tracks – including the Huntington to Port Jefferson stretch – has been talked about by the county since 2015. As of this April, town leaders including Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R), Smithtown Supervisor Ed Wehrheim (R) and Town of Huntington Supervisor Chad Lupinacci (R) are still writing letters to state and county officials begging for a feasibility study to be started. As for the promise of a rapid transit bus system, a reliable system has still not materialized while many of the line stops have been closed.

High-paying jobs that offer opportunity for future growth, reasonably priced housing and solutions to roadway gridlock need to be put into place to make Suffolk County’s future bright, as Bellone first promised when taking office.

We are willing to commend what appears to be progress in reducing narcotic drug abuse and gang violence, as early crime stats for 2018 are trending in the right direction. But we must remain vigilant.

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

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

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

Through an open dialogue, forum attendees shared and received valuable insight into effective practices, and the tools to enhance

their own processes.

While there is much good work going on in schools across the county in compliance with DASA, there is always more that can be done and shared. As an outgrowth of this successful forum, a DASA resource guide, which is a compilation of best practices utilized in county public schools for the past five years, was created. This comprehensive resource guide, which is being shared with all county school districts, will serve as an informative and valuable tool to support and enhance the work being done to implement DASA and protect the rights of all children

attending public schools.

The guide is a collaboration between the Suffolk County Human Rights Commission, the Suffolk County Inter-Faith Anti-Bias Task Force, Eastern Suffolk BOCES and the Suffolk County School Superintendents Association.

How do we even begin a conversation Last year I wrote a quick letter to this paper stating my observation of various bumper stickers on Hillary and Trump supporters’ vehicles. All of Hillary’s had a similar grouping theme as did Trump’s.

Throughout this year of extreme turmoil, I have now noticed the theme of stickers on vehicles who support the current administration have become even more offensive. At last writing, one of the most offensive stickers on a Trump supporter’s car was “my kid banged your kid’s honor teacher.”

I took a picture May 17 of a pickup truck completely adorned with bumper stickers including a large sticker in support of Trump.

Here is the rundown: “You can give peace a chance but I’ll cover you if it doesn’t work out” (with a picture of an assault rifle); “F**K off” written in a map of America; “Deplorable;” “Black

rifles matter;” “Infidel” (with an assault rifle representing the “I”); “So if guns kill people, cars drive drunk and spoons make people fat;” “We don’t need gun control, we need idiot control;” “The Founding Fathers would be shooting right now;” “Silly Americans, laws are for poor people;” “Kennedy put a man on the moon, Obama put a man in the ladies room;” “We the People have spoken.” The last is the most frightening of them all.

Some questions: How is one, on the opposing side of this person, even to begin having a political conversation with him?

Why is this person so full of hatred for so many people? How did we, as a country, come to have a president who represents this hatred? How can people be so comfortable, even proud, plastering their vehicles with such derogatory and disgusting rhetoric?

The owner of this vehicle is

now proudly calling himself a deplorable. Good. We can agree on that. He is calling people with my mindset about gun control “idiots.” What if he drives by or confronts a family in a parking lot that has lost a loved one in a shooting incident. Would he call them “idiots” to their face?

How does he explain the “F-off” one to children? Why are the abhorrent and repulsive bumper stickers only on Trump’s side?

So, for people who are still supporting this president, this truck is what you represent to those of us who are trying desperately to keep this country from falling into the abyss.

And yes, I find this blatant show of racist, misogynistic, threatening, uneducated myopic view of humanity, absolutely deplorable.

Dropping the emotional masks for a weekend

F

rom the time we’re teenagers, we’re taught to control our emotions. As we get older, people tell us not to make emotional decisions.

We see our emotions, particularly the ones in the moment, as being at odds with the rational decision-making side of our thought processes.

We roll our eyes and shake our heads when a teenager makes decisions or declarations that seem driven more by the hormones surging through their growing bodies than by the intellect we hope they’ve

By Daniel Dunaief developed.

And yet, every so often, we and our teenagers take those raw emotions out for a few hours or even days.

This past weekend, my wife and

D. None of the above

I did our periodic Texas two-step, where she brought our son to his baseball game in one state and I drove hundreds of miles to our daughter’s volleyball tournament in another.

The journey involves considerable effort, finding food that doesn’t upset allergies or sensitive stomachs at a time when indigestion or a poorly timed pit stop could derail the day.

The games themselves are filled with a wide range of emotions, as a player’s confidence and ability can rise and fall quickly from one point to the next, with slumping shoulders quickly replaced by ecstatic high fives.

In the stands and outside the lines, the emotional echoes continue to reverberate.

One girl sat next to her father, sobbing uncontrollably with her ankle high on the chair in front of her. Her father put his arm around her shoulders and spoke quiet, encouraging words into her ear. Her coach came over, in front of a stand filled with strangers, and said the girl would be able to play the next day as

soon as the swelling in her ankle went down — the coach didn’t want to risk further injury. The girl nodded that she heard her coach, but couldn’t stop the torrent of tears.

Not far from her, a mother seethed as her daughter missed a shot. The mother was angry, defensive and, eventually, apologetic to the parents of the other players for her daughter’s performance. Other parents assured her that it was fine and that everyone could see her daughter was trying her best.

Another parent hooted and hollered, clapping long after the point ended, as her daughter rose above her diminutive frame to hit the ball around a group of much taller girls.

Many of the emotional moments included unbridled joy, as a group of girls continued to embrace each other after winning a tough match, replaying point after point and laughing about the time the ball hit them in the head or they collided with a teammate on the floor.

What will they remember next

week, next month or in 20 years? Will it be satisfying when they find a picture of a younger version of themselves, beaming from ear to ear with girls they may not have seen for many years?

Even if they do think about one particular point or a strategic decision that paid off in a game against talented competition, they will also remember where and how they expressed those raw, dramatic emotions.

While feelings can get in the way of whatever grand plan we’re executing in our head, holding us back from taking a risk or preventing us from showing how much we care, they can and do enhance the way we experience our lives. Despite all the work driving behind slow-moving vehicles which take wide right turns and encourage you to call a number to let someone know how they’re driving, the effort — even when the event doesn’t turn out as well as we might hope — is well worth the opportunity to drop the mask and indulge those emotions.

Dumbing down America as graduation approaches

A

ccording to what I recently read, over half of the high schools in the United States are doing away with recognition of the highest achieving students. They are no longer naming valedictorians and salutatorians at graduation. I find that shocking.

No, I was neither valedictorian nor salutatorian at my high school graduation, so that is not the cause of my disappointment at this latest piece of participation trophy news.

No one is hurt if there is no “best.” Everyone feels good about

How idiotic! Everyone is not equal just because everyone showed up.

process than others. Perhaps some were not as gifted as others but had a greater drive to learn and to excel. Shouldn’t those top students be rewarded with the recognition they deserve? Shouldn’t they be regarded as role models? They will often go on to be the leaders of our country at the end of the day.

Class ranking is also being abandoned.

This is just another example of dumbing down America. In our vast and rich continent, our most valuable resources are the education and knowledge, along with the drive and motivation of our population. When we declare that all men (insert “persons”) are created equal, we mean we have equal rights to excel and should be given every opportunity and encouragement to do so.

I did graduate from a highly competitive high school. I had to pass a test to get in, and I had to pass innumerable tests over the years to stay in. We all moaned about how competitive the school was. Our final grades were posted on the main hallway walls at the end of each semester, along with our rank in our class. “So terrible,” we said, “so unhealthy.” But you know what? I

worked harder, studied longer, learned more, because I wanted to see my name higher up on those lists.

Englishman Roger Bannister didn’t break the 4-minute mile alone in 1954 at an Oxford University track. He did it because there were two other runners in the race, Chris Chataway and Chris Brasher, who challenged him for the lead. The competition spurred Bannister to give his best and then some. And when he did break the long-standing barrier, the magic 4-minute figure, he thanked his pacemakers, Chataway and Brasher.

Some disagree that winning a prize or trophy of some sort is what we should be encouraging. They say instead we should inspire an internal desire for learning and self-betterment.

But if both work together, an external reward system and an internal drive, we have the best combination for success. Take away the external and the fizz goes out of the drink.

We can teach students how to make competition work for them, rather than tell students that competition is bad.

Competitors make worthy colleagues.

Sometimes they make best friends.

Part of what we supposedly teach in schools is preparation for what we call “the real world.” Now everything about our world is competitive: What school we get into, which college we attend, what job we will be able to beat out the competition for, which of us will get promoted, get pay raises, even who we will marry. Heck, will the hometown team win the ballgame tonight?

Now some people refuse to play the competitive game, and that’s all right too. They get jobs that pay them enough to get by, they don’t aspire to the conspicuous consumption of much of our society, and they live solid lives with perhaps relatively less stress. Not everyone wants to be a record-breaking athlete. Just getting by is enough.

They have the right to the pursuit of happiness according to their own wishes. But sooner or later they have to compete for something — or someone. It is the way of the world, and it is a skill that can be learned without damaging our students.
