CONGRATULATIONS TO JoAnn Mancini Of Lindenhurst WHO WON A FAMILY 4-PACK OF TICKETS TO MAMMA MIA ON BROADWAY FROM SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR LOOK FOR MORE CONTESTS EVERY WEEK

I am not a domestic person by nature. Or, at least, I never thought I was. The whole cooking, cleaning, doing laundry thing just seemed so… boring and tedious. I never wanted to learn, promising my mom that, once the time came for me to move out on my own, I would simply hire a gourmet chef and a maid. Voilá! Problem solved.

Right.

Well, back in the real world, while the prospect of cooking for myself seemed slightly intriguing, I always had visions of water boiling over onto the stove, clouds of smoke billowing out of the oven…that sort of thing.

Laundry was another issue.

Today, just as when it began in 1945, the Blinded Veterans Association (BVA) serves as a bright beacon of light for blinded veterans and their families. BVA’s services are available to any U.S. military veteran who is legally blind. Call (800) 669-7079 or visit www.bva.org.

For over 30 years, our proven method has helped thousands of students improve skills, confidence, and grades.

Here’s how Huntington helps: • Academic evaluation identifies problem areas • Programs tailored to address each student’s needs • Highly trained tutors work individually with students • Lessons are taught at the student’s pace

Help For Veterans

ACADEMIC SKILLS TIRED OF FIGHTING OVER GRADES? WE CAN HELP.

Too many compartments, dials, buttons… lights, whites, darks… bleach, fabric softener, water temperatures, load sizes… delicate cycles, special washing and drying instructions… Wouldn’t it be easier to just take everything to the dry cleaners and have them sort it out? Sure, minus the $500 weekly bill maybe.

Being a bit of a neat freak – okay, maybe slightly OCD – I’ve actually always enjoyed the vacuuming and dusting part of things, organizing, categorizing... all that fun stuff.

Everything but cleaning the windows. I seem to have a small issue with – how would you put it – not making them look even worse than before I touched them.

Well, as it turns out, when

you actually come to the point in life when you must learn to do all of these necessary things for yourself – you know, just in case the maid calls in sick one day – it’s really not as hard as it looks. A little reading comprehension, a touch of common sense and lots of advice from Mom & Dad… with some trial and error, most things turn out just fine.

That’s not to say I haven’t let a pot or two of water boil a little too ferociously, or had a couple of things get a bit too well done in the oven. But rest assured, no fire departments had to be called in the making of my culinary creations. A small victory.

Now if I could only get that fuzzy sweater to be fuzzy again…

The East Islip/ Dowling School-Business Partnership participated in a joint project with East Islip Middle School and three of the district’s elementary schools to support World Cancer Day

on February 4th, creating a special Cancer Awareness Quilt.

“The cancer awareness event was a great opportunity for middle school and elementary students to work together

in creating a quilt,” said Dani Franzese, who teaches family and consumer science at the middle school.

During their sewing unit, Franzese’s sixthgrade students were taught basic sewing skills such as threading a needle, knotting thread, and sewing on a button.

They were then given the opportunity to show off their impressive sewing skills to younger students in the district, teaching elementary school students from Ruth C. Kinney (on January 22nd), Connetquot (on January 23rd) and John F. Kennedy (on January 24th) the proper way to sew on a button. The students sewed their buttons on fabric in the shape of cancer-awareness ribbons. Each button color represented one of 16 different forms of cancer; for example, pink represented breast cancer and purple represented pancreatic cancer.

The middle schoolers then helped merge the individual pieces of the patchwork quilt created by the elementary students to create one large quilt.

During that session, a speaker from the American Cancer Society was invited to give a presentation about the goals of the organization.

throughout the school day. As it rang out, a SADD student dressed as the Grim Reaper selected and “struck” a randomly selected student to recognize the fact that one person is killed in an alcoholrelated accident every 25 minutes. The students selected as “victims” put on black T-shirts and were instructed to remain silent for the remainder of the day in order to signify that a life has been impaired or lost due to a destructive decision.

“It is a difficult day for all, but it is a necessary reality that we need to address,” said Lopiccolo.

“This is a somber day in the high school, and staff and students take it very seriously.”

Grim Reaper Day

The leaves are returning, the water is warming and newly born deer are showing their small heads.

As with every April, Fire Island is abuzz with life.

After a trip to our barrier island, one can immediately conclude that not everything has been drastically altered by last year’s Hurricane Sandy.

At first glance, everything seems as if it was in shambles; but upon further inspection, it is evident that nature is beginning to make a comeback!

Vegetation is already starting to fill in all of the damaged areas, and even with the ongoing construction, animals are finally making their way

back out of hiding, onto the beaches and into the water.

Seagulls are increasing in number and it seems as if they are thriving. Piping Plover populations have bounced back to a healthy number, considering their spot on the endangered species list.

Taking a stroll down the beach, one can already spot patches of Beach Heather, a very common yellow plant, dotting the shoreline.

Accounts of whale sightings are becoming less and less frequent, signaling the end to a cold winter, and the beginning of a beautiful summer.

All in all, life is finally returning to Fire Island, coincidentally just in time for Earth Day, on April 22nd. Spring is a very

crucial part in the health of Fire Island, as the beaches elongate and erosion is reversed. This cyclic trend will lead to more room for beachgoers in the 2013 season.

Nature isn’t the only thing on the mend after Hurricane Sandy; establishments, such as Maguire’s Bayfront Restaurant in Ocean Beach, are getting ready to open up their doors. There is no doubt that Fire Island will be in “fighting shape” and ready for the masses as we kick off the season with a very solid spring.

Presented by the East Islip Music Department and the For the Kids Foundation, this year’s high school musical, the charming Bye Bye Birdie, was performed with flair on March 14th, 15th and 16th in East Islip’s Rydzeski Hall.

Written by Michael Stewart with lyrics by Lee Adams and music by Charles Strouse, “Birdie” involves ’50s rock ’n’ roll singer Conway Birdie joining the U.S. Army and its effect on teens in a small Ohio town. The story was inspired by Elvis Presley’s stardom and drafting into the U.S. Army, which took place that same year. The original 1960 Broadway production won a Tony Award and was later adapted into a 1963 film and 1995 television program.

“The high school musical is always one of the annual highlights of the East Islip School District,” said Board of Education trustee Glenn Reed. “For three nights we were visitors to Sweet Apple, Ohio for a trip back to 1958 and the wonderful times of ‘Bye, Bye Birdie,’ this year featuring the freshmen through seniors, actors to musicians to stage and production crew.”

The large cast included Peter McDermott as Albert Peterson, Courtney Kenyon as Rose Alvarez, Emily DeMaio as Kim MacAfee, Sam Sharkey

Bye Bye Birdie “’Bye Bye Birdie’ is a family-friendly and funfilled show,” said East Islip’s musical director, Kate Keating. “The cast, crew, pit and staff all contributed to making this upbeat musical classic come alive.

I loved the characters that our students created and was extremely proud of them for all of their hard work and dedication.”

East Islip’s For the Kids Foundation held its 16th Annual Black Tie Gala at Land’s End in Sayville on March 9th, celebrating another year of unprecedented fundraising efforts to benefit the East Islip School District’s students.

This year’s Gala, themed “An Affair To Remember,” honored two of East Islip’s most committed educational leaders.

Christopher Neske, a prominent music teacher at East Islip High School, was named Educator Advocate of the Year, while Patricia Diesu, the former FTK president, was chosen as Community Advocate of the Year.

Both Neske and Diesu were recognized for their important contributions and longtime dedication to FTK and the East Islip community.

“We were thrilled to honor Chris Neske and Patty Diesu, as they are two individuals who truly embody all that FTK stands for and we are thankful for their commitment to the Foundation,” said Nancy Goldfader, FTK’s president.

Christopher Neske grew up in the East Islip community, attending Timber Point Elementary, Islip Terrace Junior High School (now East Islip Middle School) and East Islip High School, where he graduated in 2002. He credits the community, school district and East Islip’s vibrant music department for his love for education, which ultimately inspired him to become a music teacher.

Neske attended Ithaca College in Ithaca, N.Y., where he double majored in music education and oboe performance. At Ithaca, Neske held principal oboe positions in the college’s symphony orchestra, chamber orchestra and wind ensemble, and was a member of the Oracle Society, Pi Kappa Lambda and Phi Kappa Phi. Upon his 2006 graduation

Black Tie Gala from Ithaca, Neske was fortunate to obtain his first teaching position at East Islip Middle School.

After a year of teaching sixth-grade band at the middle school, he moved over to the high school, where he now directs East Islip’s concert band and wind ensemble, teaches AP Music Theory, and acts as the adviser for the annual school musical’s stage crew and the Tri-M Music Honor Society. Neske also serves as the secretary for

inspired by the dedication and selflessness of the leadership, past and present, of this organization,” Neske stated. “I am forever indebted to the East Islip School District for providing me with an unmatched level of education that helped me realize so many dreams, and I hope that I can continue to help East Islip provide countless students with the same opportunities and education that were

the East Islip Teachers’ Association, is a delegate to the New York State United Teachers and American Federation of Teachers, and holds the position of assistant vice president for the Suffolk County Music Educators’ Association. He also serves as a member of the School Improvement Team and the School Based Inquiry Team. During the summers, Neske is a member of the faculty at Ithaca College’s Summer Music Academy. He has played oboe with the Atlantic Wind Symphony, Cayuga Chamber Orchestra and Nassau-Suffolk Alumni Wind Symphony, and has guest conducted for the Nassau Music Educators Association and the Atlantic Wind Symphony.

Neske’s involvement with For the Kids began when he was 15 years old, participating as one of the group’s student interns. Since then he has been a volunteer at numerous FTK events and fundraisers, supporting its efforts any way he can.

“I have always been

afforded to me.”

Known for her longtime involvement with the For the Kids Foundation, Patricia Diesu’s unwavering dedication to the East Islip community has been rewarded with the PTA Jenkins Memorial Lifetime Achievement Award and the Tri-M Honorary Life Membership Award. She was also honored by Suffolk County Legislator Tom Cilmi for her leadership and exemplary service to the community.

Diesu and her husband Dwayne purchased their first home in Islip Terrace in 1984, the result of the priority that the couple put on residing in a community with a good school district where they could raise their family.

They later moved to East Islip. While her children were attending John F. Kennedy Elementary School, Diesu began to volunteer in support of the school community.

Prepare a deck or patio for entertaining Few things are better than having a functional and beautiful outdoor space to entertain guests. Having a great outdoor space enables a person to host parties or intimate gatherings all year long.

Establishing an entertaining space and maintaining that space are essential when planning another year of fun in the sun.

There are many things homeowners can do to ensure their entertaining space is safe and functional. As the season approaches, include some landscaping and decorating components to your preparatory plans to make the space as comfortable and aesthetically appealing as possible.

Here are a few key tips for readying your yard for entertaining possibilities.

Expand on these basics to customize an area for your unique needs. * Check the area for any needed repairs. Prior to your first entertaining session, look over the deck or patio to take note of any flaws that may present safety hazards. Are there any loose railings? Are all screws and nails flush so they do not cause tripping? Are there any cracks in concrete or loose patio blocks? Be sure to remedy all of the repairs needed to ensure guests will be safe. If you are unsure of any structural deficits, consult with a contractor. * Hire a reputable contractor. If you are just laying the groundwork for a new patio or deck, it is important to get the necessary permits and then hire a person who has been properly vetted. Check qualifications and licensing before hiring a contractor and ask to view a portfolio of his or her previous work.

Word-of-mouth recommendations from trusted friends and family members are good, and you can also double-check qualifications by contacting the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been lodged or use a service such as Angie’s List to read reviews of his or her work.

for when the sun is too uncomfortable to make sitting outside enjoyable. Similarly, have a sunny area where people can soak up a few rays or dry off after a dip in the spa or pool. Don’t forget to establish a spot for the kids to converge with scaleddown amenities. * Consider a fireplace or fire pit. For centuries man (and woman) has gathered around fire for socialization and a means to warming up. Having a backyard fireplace, pit or chiminea is a conversation-starter, a decorative focal point, and a functional tool to extend the number of seasons in which outdoor entertaining can take place.

Place the fire wisely and with concern for safety. It should be out of the way of foot traffic, but central enough so that it can be a gathering point. * Invest in quality outdoor furniture.

Today’s yards are extensions of a home’s interior. Guests no longer want to sit on uncomfortable metal or plastic furniture.

There are many different outdoor sofas and chairs that are as stylish as they are comfortable. These pieces can be matched to the decor inside your home for a cohesive look. * Accessorize. Consider the creature comforts of indoors and mimic that outdoors. Don’t shy away from hanging artwork on an exterior wall or using urns or pottery to decorate the space. Weather-resistant materials ensure everything from clocks to televisions can be used outdoors. Think about having an entire set of serving dishes and other entertaining items for the outdoors.

When refurbishing outdoor entertaining areas, emphasize comfort, safety and functionality.

Did you know?

* Think about closing in a portion of a deck or patio. The use of a canopy, netting or even greenery to protect an entertaining space can help minimize weather-related damage to outdoor furniture. Netting will keep a More and more homeowners embracing a relatively new way to shower.

Restoring your property after a long winter One of the best things about the dawn of spring and the return of warmer weather is the chance to get out of the house and get some fresh air. For homeowners, this is the perfect opportunity to assess any damage the previous months did to yards and develop a plan restore properties.

* Employ a pre-emergent weed killer. Homeowners who routinely spend their summers agonizing over weeds throughout the yard should consider applying a pre-emergent weed killer around the beginning of spring.

It’s important to do so around the end of March or early April, when the weeds have not yet had a chance to grow.

When applying, follow the dosage instructions provided by the product’s manufacturer. Such instructions often recommend a second application right before summer begins.

* Don’t jump the gun. The first warm day of spring might seem like a great time get out in the yard and get your hands dirty. But it’s best to wait until the grass has completely dried out before getting to work. Raking on wet grass increases the risk of tearing out grass, which * Remove thatch.

How to edge a lawn Edging a lawn is a springtime rite of passage for many homeowners. When winter has come and gone, many lawns are left in need of some serious maintenance, including edging. Well-defined edges around the yard make the yard look more organized and better maintained. And edging is relatively easy, especially for those homeowners with a smaller yard. Edging can be time-consuming for those with more property, but when done properly, edging is definitely worth the effort. * Remove debris from the areas you plan to edge. Before you even begin to edge, be sure to remove any debris from those areas that need edging. Debris, including rocks, twigs or the kids’ toys, left lying around can be kicked up when you’re edging, potentially causing injury to you or someone standing nearby. * Purchase safety goggles. Even if you have removed all visible debris, there still may be some items hidden in the grass. These items can be kicked up and hit you in the eye, so purchase some safety goggles and be sure to wear them whenever you’re edging. As an added precaution, keep kids and others away from any areas you’re edging so they aren’t injured by any unseen debris that

gets kicked up while you’re working. * Check your tools. Edging can be done by using a gas-powered edger or a string trimmer. Before you begin to edge, inspect these tools to ensure they’re capable of handling the task at hand. Inspect the blades on a gas-powered edger to make sure they haven’t dulled since their most recent use. If they are dull, sharpen them before you start to edge. When using a string trimmer, make sure you have enough string on hand to complete the project. String trimmers use a particular kind of string, so visit your local lawn care or hardware store if you don’t feel like you have enough. * Position your edger properly. Once you have given your tools the green light, it’s time to start edging. When you begin, make sure the edger is between the sidewalk or driveway and the edge of the lawn, placing the wheel of the edger on the sidewalk or driveway and then pushing and pulling the edger until you have created a clear edge. If you have never edged before, you may want to practice on smaller, more isolated areas until you become comfortable operating the edger.

Suffolk Zone 3 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - Wednesday APRIL 17, 2013

Bouncing back from a tragic loss to claim the title of Suffolk County champions, the East Islip varsity boys bowling team played through a history-making year.

Their team average per game was 1,116, which works out to 223 per man, a Suffolk County record. Two of East Islip’s bowlers, senior Mike Kissel and junior Jacob Klein, averaged 230 or better this season. Both of them, along with junior Nick DeFazio, were named All-State, All-Conference and All-League bowlers. Additionally, Jon Cheadle was given All-Conference and All-League honors and Steve Rourke achieved All-League recognition.

This year proved to be an outstanding comeback for the Redmen from a disappointing 2011-2012 season. “Last year the boys had a lot of talent but were very young and unproven and did not perform like they should have,” said East Islip’s head coach Bob Cheadle. “As soon as the last season ended, the kids dedicated themselves to better practice routines, working harder and caring about each other. Team goals came first.”

“Reaching the highest level they could reach and maintaining that level all season, that’s an impressive thing to see young kids do,” Cheadle added. “They kept their focus and sense of teamwork, never letting it slip or letting individual agendas get in the way.”

Much of the team’s success can be attributed to the strong instruction of Cheadle, but a great deal can also be traced to the legacy he inherited from former head coach Rick Papandrea, who died last November.

“Rick Papandrea was a beloved coach and a fixture in the bowling community for many years here in East Islip, and he will be missed,” remarked Stephen Restivo, East Islip’s director of athletics, health and physical education. “The players dedicated this year to his memory, and Coach Cheadle is now carrying on a great program here in East Islip.”

“Rick and I had been friends since our teen years,” explained Harold Cooley, the coach of East Islip’s varsity girls bowling team. “His passing and battle with cancer was a surprise to everyone. Rick always had a passion for bowling and helping anyone who came to him for help.

He was the type of person that would be willing to help you in any way he could, even at his expense. He was a diehard New York Yankee fan, a great bowling coach and a best friend to all. He will be missed by all who knew him but never forgotten.”

A member of the PBA Tour since the 1970s, Papandrea later opened Rick’s Pro Shop at East Islip Lanes, which was renamed The Right Approach. He served as head coach of the East Islip boys varsity team for 10 years, although he had helped as an unpaid assistant coach for the Redmen for many years prior. In his decade at the helm of the boys bowling program, Papandrea’s teams won four county titles and a well-earned state championship, and he was elected as president of the Suffolk County Bowling Coaches Association.

“Rick transformed the program from a nonentity to a perennial power,” Cheadle stated. “As a former pro bowler, his knowledge of the game was at a different level than the average coach. We are a team to beat because of him.”

The New York State victory was his proudest achievement, according to Cooley. “His teams won three Suffolk County championships, but Rick was most

Papandrea died on November 4th, 2012 at likewise scored 300. “It was a big deal,” Cheadle said with age 53, two weeks prior to the beginning of his bowling deserved pride. team’s season.

At the last match of the season against Copiague on After his loss, Papandrea’s student-athletes made a January 24th, East Islip shot a team pin total of 3,635, vow to work even harder and to perform with a stronger beating their own record.

The East Islip team won the Suffolk County Bowling “In the beginning there was just the raw emotion of Championship on February 2nd at Sayville Lanes, Rick’s passing,” he said, “but by the time that the season scoring a team total of 6,801 for the day, the highest total was ready to start, they had transformed themselves into team pinfall ever in the county championships. Their a true team.” game 4 score of 1,298 was also the top team game ever At the 2012-2013 season opener on November 29th, at in county history. Kissell bowled a 300 in one game, his home against North Babylon, the East Islip boys began second perfect effort of the year. “That was a big day,” their season domination with 22 consecutive strikes. said Cheadle with understatement. “Winning the county Cheadle described it as an amazing feat, saying, “Very championship is actually more stressful than bowling in few adult men’s teams could do that.” Redmen bowlers the state championship. When you have the kind of season Cheadle (700 series), Kissel (746), Klein (768) and we did, everyone expects you to win county. Moving on Rourke (729) all rolled over a 700 series, and their team to the state competition was a chance to exhale.” Before total of 3,620 proved to be a landmark. “At the time it their postseason continued, however, they made sure was the third highest pin total in county history,” said they had not forgotten Papandrea or their vow to honor Cheadle. “To accomplish that two weeks after burying him.

Sandy Support

The East Islip Middle School’s Tri-M Music Honor Society sponsored its 4th Annual Fundraising Practice-a-thon last month, to benefit the Long Island Cares Foundation’s work in caring for persons affected by Superstorm Sandy.

Middle school band

music teacher Concetta Stevens organizes the Practice-a-thon each year and presents it to the students. Every Friday morning during March, she and Judith Fischer, the middle school’s orchestra director, hosted an at-school music session where students could

practice orchestral music with classmates and play duets or trios.

“Mrs. Stevens and I felt that this year, since proceeds are going toward Sandy relief, it was especially meaningful for our students,” said Fischer.

Congratulations to Bay Shore High School Senior, Chasity Marcano for her award-winning essay in the category of Bullying and Cyberbullying. Miss Marcano was awarded a 2,500 gift of knowledge scholarship to Dowling College and a paid internship through the North Shore LIJ Health Systems. Pictured with Chasity is Bay Shore High School Principal, Mr. Robert Pashkin and Mrs. Maria Fagan, College Business Law teacher.

On March 15th, close

to three hundred of Long Island’s high school students representing 21 districts in Suffolk and Nassau Counties convened in Oakdale, NY to take part in the 4th Annual Long Island Youth Summit. The Summit is a partnership between Dowling College, the North Shore LIJ Health System, the Citizens Campaign for the Environment and Vision Long Island. “We had a very productive day where the current generation of leaders worked together with the future generation

of leaders.

The purpose of the Summit is to work with the brightest high school students to further their analytical and leadership abilities for the benefit of Long Island’s future,” said Dr. Nathalia Rogers, Co-Chair of the Long Island Youth Summit Steering Committee.

Students participated in various workshops moderated by experts in the fields of medicine, economics, socio-medical issues, environment and community issues.

Distinguished Teacher

Bay Shore High School International Baccalaureate Program Coordinator Jonathan Nelson has been named a Distinguished Teacher of 2013 by the Harvard Club of Long Island. One of only a dozen teachers from across the 120 Long Island school districts to receive this award, Mr. Nelson will be honored at the Harvard Club’s annual University Relations Lunch in April.

There, winners will receive scholarships for a “Harvard experience” at the Harvard University campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

As an English teacher at Bay Shore High School from 1994-2009, Jon Nelson set the standard

for what a teacher should be: prepared, creative, knowledgeable, attentive, and committed to all students equally.

Mr. Nelson co-founded the High School’s Creative Writing Club and Poetry Jam, coached its Varsity Soccer team, and willingly took on the enormous challenge of Program Coordinator and Theory of Knowledge instructor when the IB Program was instituted at Bay Shore High School. A wonderful paradox, Mr. Nelson is as flexible and versatile a teacher and mentor as he is uncompromisingly ethical and integral. The model he presents to teachers and students

alike, one of honest and probing scholarship bolstered by compassion and respect, has enriched our English Department, our fledgling IB Program and 18 years’ worth of very lucky students. This year, Mr. Nelson has been awarded the Scope Award in the teaching category as well as being named the Dowling College/News 12 Long Island Educator for the Month of October.

Currently, he is in Demark with Bay Shore High School IB students as part of an exchange program.

Congratulations to Jon Nelson for earning this prestigious award.

MUSIC TEACHERS CRUISE - Bay Shore High School Music teacher Chris Billella is also the conductor of the Hibernian Festival Singers, one of the groups recently invited to perform on the Andy Cooney Cruise of Irish Stars. Bay Shore Middle School Music teacher Ms. Christina Mendolia also went along as the group’s accompanist.

They performed many times during the week-long cruise, alongside stars such as Ronan Tynan, the Screaming Orphans, John Whelan, Paddy Noonan, Tom Comerford and, of course, Andy Cooney and his band.

READING NIGHT - In March, Gardiner Manor School hosted its 4th Annual Family Reading Night. The event was filled with fun, laughter and, of course, reading. Every student was assigned a room with a Gardiner Manor teacher where they got to read a book and participate in an exciting project. At the end of the evening, everyone enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate and cookies.

Hairspray

From the tear-jerking ballad I Know Where I’ve Been to the upbeat pop song You Can’t Stop The Beat, this year’s Bay Shore High School Spring musical was a colorful, enjoyable sensation.

Hairspray was without a doubt one of the largest and most extravagant shows the High School has ever taken on. With over 80 cast members, 40 costumes, 10 wigs, 30 tubes of foundation and an untold number of bobby pins, the show was an amazing accomplishment.

Bay Shore High School Senior Krisbel Brenes was cast in the part of Little

Inez and experienced a lot of challenges throughout the show. “I had to play a younger girl so, believe it or not, it was difficult acting immature and dancing with less experience and less elegance.”

Junior Kordell Hammond played the part of Seaweed, a fun loving kid just trying to fit in during a time of strict segregation laws in the 1960’s. “This part was an easy role for me to play because I wasn’t doing anything that I wouldn’t have done had I grown up in the 1960’s. This was not only a entertaining show but it also taught

an important lesson about acceptance and breaking down stereotypes.”

Under the amazing direction of Chris Billella and musical direction of Christina Mendolia, HAIRSPRAY was greeted each night with thunderous applause and sold out shows on Friday and Saturday. It is sure to go down in Bay Shore High School history as one of the most exciting and uplifting shows ever performed upon our stage.

Congratulations to the cast, crew and pit orchestra on a job well done.

Street Renamed better future.

“Sports and Fitness opportunities for typical children are plentiful in the Islip Community. Parents of typical children have access to some of the best sports camps and programs in the country. However, children with special needs or exceptional children have limited access to such programs,” said Alex Lopez, of Par F.O.R.E. “Exceptional children are often deprived of opportunities to use their bodies in a manner that would actually help them socially, academically, and developmentally. The program I have developed is looking to level the playing field for exceptional children.”

Islip Town Councilman John Cochrane Jr. recently led a ceremonial street renaming in honor of local veterans. Wurz Street, located in Brentwood, was dedicated as “Veterans of Foreign Wars Way” by Councilman Cochrane and other retired military personnel.

“The street is named

after all Veterans of Foreign Wars also known as “VFW”, both past and present.

Simply put, the VFW strives to do good things for deserving people; particularly veterans, their families, and their communities. From local grassroots ideas to national influence, VFW members work every day to make a

difference. An example of this is VFW Commander Lacy’s commitment and dedication to U.S. Veterans has driven Commander Lacy to spearhead the project to have the name of the street the VFW Post is located on, Wurz Street, changed to Veterans of Foreign Wars Way,” said Councilman Cochrane Jr.

LOCAL SCOUT HONORED - Islip Town Councilman Steve Flotteron (right) and Town Clerk Olga Murray (left) recently attended the Eagle Award ceremony for Tyler James D’Agostino.

the history of board games during the Great Depression; for example, they investigated how The Landlord Game evolved into the world-famous Monopoly. The student groups then played and evaluated each other’s completed board games on February 5th and 6th.

“In this case, my students both discovered and taught about the Great Depression era,” said Kguloian. “These games that they created together show how learning can be fun.”

On February 4th the freshman cooperative groups went into action, working together to create their thematic games.

They were given blank game boards, with the only solid guideline being that the ensuing games must be “related and connected” to the literature that they had read about the Great Depression, such as To Kill A Mockingbird and Of Mice And Men. Each game had to contain a game board, pieces, a clear objective to win the game and written rules. Additional challenges were to incorporate such elements as symbolism, irony and foreshadowing.

During the project, the students conducted research on

Freshmen in Gregory Kguloian’s class in East Islip High School recently worked cooperatively to create their own Great Depression-inspired board games in a special “research, read and create” unit designed to make history fun.

“They had the freedom to make this project into anything that they could imagine,” said Kguloian.

“This is part of what the Common Core Learning Standards have encouraged 21st-century teachers to utilize when we endeavor to educate our nation’s young people. It is not just to teach the required literature in a vacuum – it is to immerse this generation in the knowledge that has been learned via previous generations. We want our students to learn about the ‘bigger picture’ in life, not just brief, disconnected snapshots. The teachers here at East Islip really care
