At St. Catherine of Siena Nursing & Rehabilitation Care Center we believe that Faith plays an integral role in our residents’ healing process. Understanding the importance of this need, a new chapel was dedicated on the main level of the facility. On January 31st, Bishop William Murphy of the Diocese of Rockville Centre visited St. Catherine of Siena Nursing & Rehabilitation
Care Center to bless the new chapel. Fr. Fred Hill, Staff Chaplain, worked tirelessly on building this chapel as a place for peace and quiet moments of prayer. “This chapel has been a dream come true for the residents and staff who now have a place to renew themselves and find peace and comfort. The chapel provides a source of power and inspiration to all that visit or reside within
the facility,” stated Fr. Fred Hill. More than 50 people, consisting of staff, residents, Administration and Board Members joined Bishop Murphy for this special day of prayer and services. Bishop Murphy spent time visiting with the residents and staff, while thanking all for what they do each and every day. It was a special day filled with joy and peace at seeing this chapel come to completion.

SCHOLAR ATHLETE - Alexa Rohan, a senior at Ward Melville High School, was recently named a News 12 Long Island Scholar Athlete. A three-time all-long and all-county fencer, Alexa will be competing in the Junior Olympics in February that takes place in Maryland. Her specialty is women’s saber fencing. Alexa is also a standout student with a 96 average (out of 100) and a 2170 SAT score. She will be attending Stanford University in the fall.
the “Band-Aid Brigade” for schools and children in orphanages in Kenya. The idea was first started by teacher Susan Safranek, whose daughter Megan will be traveling to Meru, Kenya to volunteer for the second time with the Hope Children’s Fund this February. Thanks in large part to the sixth-graders’ efforts, when Megan leaves she will not only be traveling with a suitcase full of her personal belongings, but also a 50-pound suitcase chockfull of donated supplies for a local Kenyan orphanage. “I’ve been told that in Kenya, one Band-Aid can cost as much as $1, a notion that is just so foreign to us
in the United States,” stated Ms. Safranek, who prior to the drive visited each sixthgrade class to speak about the mission and the needs of the Kenyan children. “Through the generosity of the Nassakeag sixthgrade students and school staff,” she added, “we have collected thousands of new supplies for the children of Kenya, which in essence is like donating thousands of dollars to this povertystricken area.” Enclosed with the school’s large medical supply donation will be a few Nassakeag Elementary School t-shirts, which the sixth-graders hope the Kenyan children will wear with smiles.

Band-Aids are not something that most Americans would define as coveted medical resources, and yet in far-away Kenya, these tiny objects are a high-priced treatment option. As diseases – in particular bloodborne ones like AIDS – run rampant through the region, sterile coverings are an important fixture in the everyday life of the Kenyan people, in particular the large population of homeless children. In recognition of these facts, the sixth-grade students at Nassakeag Elementary School in the Three Village Central School District coordinated a bandage collection drive they called

I’m beginning to despise Mother Nature. More specifically, I despise those weather forecasters, news anchors and so-called “reporters” who insist on inciting what amounts to mass hysteria every time a single snowflake or shower is detected on the horizon. Honestly, have we learned nothing from Hurricane Sandy? Back in October, there was plenty of advance warning, to be sure; but how many decided against taking precautionary measures based solely on past precedent? What’s that they say about the boy who cried wolf? Oh, eventually, he will be right…but no one will listen. Fast forward to my most favorite season of all – winter –
with all its blizzards and sleet and ice storms. You know, the season where one flake in the forecast calls for widespread panic. Let’s all run in droves to the stores to snap up every last shovel and snow-blower – “just in case.” Let’s stock up on milk and eggs because, after all, once the power goes out, what better necessities to have on hand? Oh, and let’s not forget to wait in line for gas once again – you know, for all that driving we’ll surely be doing in two feet of snow. Seriously people? Personally, I’m a big fan of waking up, looking out the window and assessing the situation for myself. And if the power goes out, well that’s a whole other ballgame. Then gone are those cozy dreams of being snowed in with nothing but a pile of DVDs and books to catch up on while you bake
cookies and make hot cocoa. Honestly, the last time I truly enjoyed a “snow day,” I was probably about eight years old. It’s a bit different when you need to shovel your way out and work for a living, isn’t it fellow adults? And doesn’t it always seem that the worst weather hits right when you have a million things to do? When you have all these grand plans to be productive and proactive and all that good stuff? So much for that. Best plan: pull the covers over your head, go back to sleep and enjoy the peace and quiet. No hysteria, no stockpile of milk and eggs, no need to skate all over the roads. No sense trying to fight what you can’t control. Trust me, there is no shovel that’s a match for Mother Nature.

support for the initiative, which ran through the end of January. “In addition to the school drive, we also collected supplies outside of local pet stores and businesses,” said Michele. “It was truly inspiring to see how generous people can be. The four of us are big pet lovers, but even the least pet-friendly individuals contributed to the drive, which I think says a lot about how supportive our community is.”
management assessment, the agency assesses for signs or symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, mental health disorders, trauma, physical and sexual abuse, legal involvement, domestic violence, substance abuse and dependence issues. Clients can choose between the one-time eight-hour course or the 12 sessions that meet weekly. In each, clients have an opportunity to identify their triggers, and practice practical, effective strategies for processing and controlling their emotions. Individual anger management sessions are offered in cases where a client is uncomfortable in a group setting. Upon completion of the class and/or course, participants receive a certificate as proof of their progress. For many clients, anger and the difficulty they experience in dealing with conflict, has threatened their personal and professional relationships. “We want every participant to learn successful coping skills for managing their
anger;” explains Anger Management Coordinator Marcie Siciliano, “we provide the education and resources for our clients to deal with stress in healthy ways.” The fees associated with the Anger Management services are minimal and competitive. The assessment fee is $40 and an additional $40 per class each week. For individuals attending the one-day eight-hour session, the fee is $199. Participants can purchase the Anger Management Resource guide for $40. Those on Medicaid or Employee Assistance Program (EAP) clients are eligible for a reduction in fees.

Before the puck drops on Saturday, February 16th the New York Islanders Hockey Club and the American Red Cross will, for its third year, partner for a blood drive to continue their lifesaving commitment. The blood drive will take place at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. As a special thank you for helping their neighbors, all presenting donors will receive a voucher for two tickets to a 20122013 Islanders regular season home game.* This marks the first of four blood drives the two organizations will host this year. Local donors are needed all year round to ensure the blood supply stays strong. Blood is an essential component for patient care in area hospitals, and the only source of blood is a
healthy, volunteer donor. Your one donation can help save up to three lives and it only takes about an hour of your time. “By rolling up your sleeve, you may help provide lifesaving blood where and when it is needed. This profound, heart-felt act may help save the life of a real person in your community,” said Donna M. Morrissey, Director of Communications, Red Cross Northeast Division. “The blood drive has become a staple of the Islanders’ community outreach efforts,” Dave Decina, Islanders VP of Corporate Partnerships, said. “It has grown with every event, testifying to the strength of our fans’ communal ties. As an organizational family, we take comfort in knowing our efforts bring us a step closer to a better future.” The Red Cross blood

drive will take place in the Lower Box Office of the Coliseum. Walk-ins are always welcome, but donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment in advance by calling 1.800.RED.CROSS (1.800.733.2767) or by visiting redcrossblood. org. All presenting donors will also receive a voucher for one free entrée from Moe’s Southwest Grill and have the opportunity to enter to win many great prizes including a luxury suite for ten people at the Saturday, March 9th Islanders game, a catered lunch for 20 from Moe’s Southwest Grill and a Hockey Getaway Package which includes two Islanders game tickets to the March 22nd game, a “High Five” opportunity as players come onto the ice, overnight accommodations and breakfast at the Long Island Marriott.*

St. Patrick School Open House Student Council & National Junior Honor Society Host Tours For New Students & Families St. Patrick School in Smithtown hosted its Open House for new and prospective nursery through 8th grade students and families on Sunday, January 27th, from 1 to 3 p.m. Families and their children were greeted and welcomed by members of the Student Council and National Junior Honor Society. Student Council representatives from grades 4-8, along with National Junior Honor Society members, then conducted tours of the school by escorting families to the various classrooms and introducing them to faculty members. Administration and staff were available to assist with admissions and registration for the upcoming school year, as well as offer an overview of how St. Patrick’s integrates Catholic faith and Christian values with its outstanding academic curriculum, sports and social enrichment programs. Visiting students and families had a chance to meet the advisors of St. Patrick’s various sports, academic clubs and extra-curricular programs. St. Patrick School is a private, Catholic elementary school accredited by the Middle States Commission on Elementary Schools (MSCES). In addition, St. Patrick is a founding member of the Catholic Middle School Athletic Association and a member of the New York State School’s Music Association (NYSSMA). Its administration, faculty and staff are inspired by the Catholic faith and devoted to Christian values and respect for the uniqueness of each individual. Established in 1966, St. Patrick School is part of the Diocese of Rockville Centre and the vibrant Christian community of Saint Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church in Smithtown. The school boasts a current enrollment of over 500 students in nursery through 8th grade and incorporates state-of-the-art technology in every classroom with SMART Boards in K-8 classrooms and SMART Tables for nursery and Pre-K children. Conveniently located in the heart of Smithtown at 284 East Main Street (Route 25) between Route 111 and Terry Road, St. Patrick School is situated on 19 acres of property including its own sprawling athletic fields, new gymnasium and playground.

traits are important for the students and staff to embody. Working in pairs or individually, the sixth-graders developed slogans for the program, and the winning piece – STARS – was selected for implementation. Students Denise Lai and Sahil Sangwan coined the acronym, which stands for Sharing, Trustworthiness, Acceptance, Respect and Service. To introduce the program, select sixthgraders, including Denise and Sahil, along with the PBIS committee coordinators, organized two in-school assembly programs. During the events, the students performed skits displaying what each of the traits looked like in typical daily interactions, and
Arrowhead Elementary School’s J.U.S.T.I.C.E. (Join Us Students Together in Creating Equality) Club has been working throughout the year to promote an understanding of world cultures and the need for equality for all people. To enhance their understanding of this diverse topic, each week the club has focused on learning about a different country, along with its culture, folklore and other region-specific information. Sharing a first-person perspective of such places as Egypt

In keeping with the district’s commitment to providing character education learning opportunities for students and staff, as well as in compliance with the New York State Dignity for All Students Act, schools in the Three Village Central School District have begun implementing the PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) program. With the help of the school’s PBIS committee, which is coordinated by school social worker Leia Woodruff and teacher Christy Weiler, Minnesauke Elementary School sixth-grade students were invited to have a hand in defining the building’s individual bullyprevention program and identifying what positive

and Indonesia, or more specifically the Irian Jaya now known as New Guinea, club adviser and world traveler Christina Maffia has been proudly sharing pictures and artifacts collected during her personal trips. “As part of our discussions, we focus on developing a deeper understanding of the different people that make up our world, as well as the importance of being more tolerant and accepting of world cultures,” stated Ms. Maffia. “As I have visited the places of which we are speaking, I can
share a bit more about the tribal people I have encountered and my firsthand experience of their traditional ways of life.” During the Indonesian presentation, Ms. Maffia spoke with the students about the Dani and Dayak tribes, and the students explored how their lives differ from the children in Borneo and New Guinea. After the presentation, the students had the chance to handle some of the artifacts Ms. Maffia was able to acquire, including bowls, tools and gifts from a shaman.
their families a place to relax together for a week and to take a break from the extraordinary demands placed on them on a daily basis. The year-round program is free of charge and staffed almost entirely by volunteers. It is the only program in the nation whose mission is to address the impact of a life-threatening illness on every member of the immediate family Since the opening of the Camp’s year-round campus in 2001, more ill children and their families have come from New York than any other state in the nation. In 2012, 152 families from New York, many from Long Island, attended the Camp. Even with multiple sessions
being added annually at Camp Sunshine, there are still many more children from New York being newly diagnosed each year, Smith said. Camp Sunshine’s program continues to be recommended by the following New York treatment centers: Mount Sinai Medical Center, Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center, Schneider’s Children’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital at Montefiore, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York University Medical Center, Brooklyn Hospital Center, Westchester Medical Center, Stony Brook Medical Center, and numerous others.
the coordinators spoke about how students who are “caught” being STARS will be recognized in the upcoming months. Teachers and other support personnel will have the chance to “report” STARS, and those individuals’ names will be written on paper stars to hang in the main office. Monthly nominated students will have the chance to have their behavior recognized during a lunchtime celebration with the principal. To support its implementation, and as a visual reminder of the school’s goal to be bullyfree, each classroom has been equipped with supportive materials that further explain the STARS CULTURAL APPRECIATION - Members of Arrowhead Elementary School’s Justice program.

Long Island Polar Dip The Long Island Polar Dip to benefit Camp Sunshine is set for Saturday, March 2nd at Crab Meadow Beach in Huntington. Participants will plunge into the frigid waters of Long Island Sound to raise money to help send more New York families to Camp Sunshine, a one-of-a-kind national retreat in Casco, Maine for children with lifethreatening illnesses and their families. Every polar dip participant is encouraged to raise a minimum of $100 in pledges. The Long Island Polar Dip has partnered with CrowdRise, a popular online fundraising platform, to make it easier for the entire community to unite, support and fundraise for
Camp Sunshine. To start raising funds, form or join a team, and donate online, visit http://www.crowdrise. com/LongIslandPolarDip. For more information, call 207.655.3800. Organizers have set a goal to raise $20,000 – enough to send 10 New York families to Camp Sunshine (www.campsunshine.org). Plungers are encouraged to create a plunge team of four or more people, consisting of co-workers and classmates and from civic groups or places of worship. Each participant who raises at least $100 in pledges for Camp Sunshine will receive a coveted “I DID IT!” t-shirt. Crab Meadow Beach is located at the end of Waterside Avenue
in Huntington Township on Long Island’s North Shore. The area features a boardwalk, playground and restaurant. Registration will get underway at noon with the dip set for 2 p.m. “We’re so excited and gratified that Huntington Township has allowed us to relocate our plunge this year from storm-damaged Amityville,” said Michael Smith, Camp Sunshine’s Director of Special Events. “This polar dip on Long Island will raise funds for Camp Sunshine and help more families from that area take advantage of our services.” He added, “The reality of this event is that the discomfort our plungers feel for just a moment will
never compare to what our families go through during the course of their child’s illness. It’s for the families and children that we plunge – we call it Freezin’ for a Reason.” Those unable or not willing to submerge in near-freezing water can still participate in the Chicken Dip. Chicken dippers are still required to raise the minimum of $100 to participate, but only need to get their feet wet – a perfect opportunity for some of Camp Sunshine’s children to take part, Smith said. Nestled alongside the shores of beautiful Sebago Lake in Casco, Maine, Camp Sunshine (www.campsunshine.org) offers children with lifethreatening illnesses and

To gear up for the big game, Arrowhead Elementary School fourth-grade teachers put a football twist on their classroom lessons and coordinated an event they called “Super Friday.” Dressed in team colors, the students and staff members arrived to school the Friday before Super Bowl XLVII armed and ready to tackle any tough lesson that got in their way – and have a little spirited fun while doing so. With the school day divided into quarters, the students
Arrow Bowl engaged in different learning activities that incorporated either the game or the geographic locations associated with the sport into the unit of study during four main blocks of time. During math, the students solved word problems based on taking a trip to the Super Bowl; in social studies, they matched the NFL teams with the cities they play for and took a virtual tour of the U.S. using Google Earth; for English, they took a “super” spelling
Museum Reopens For Spring test, replete with football and sports terms, and completed writing assignments following a variety of sports-themed prompts. Additionally, the students had the chance to take part in yard line trivia and mathematics competitions before ending the day with a talented halftime show. The program, which began with teacher Alex Gallagher, has become a tried and true Arrowhead tradition.
It’s a new season of art, history and carriages at the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook. The museum will reopen to the public on Friday, March 1st with two new art exhibitions and a full schedule of related programs. From March 1st through May 27th, the museum will present An Artful Life: The Baker/Pisano Collection of 19th Century American Art. D. Frederick Baker and Ronald Pisano built the Baker/Pisano Collection of American Art when in-depth research on American art and artists was in its infancy. This exhibition focuses on the 19th century, featuring works by William Merritt Chase and friends with whom he associated during his long and distinguished career, including John Singer Sargent, Winslow Homer, Thomas Dewing, Childe Hassam, Irving R. Wiles, Thomas Eakins, Elihu Vedder, Albert Pinkham Ryder, James Carroll Beckwith and Augustus Saint-Gaudens. For a full schedule of ARROW BOWL - Arrowhead Elementary School fourth-grade students and staff related programs, visit members participated in the building’s annual Super Friday. Photo provided by: the museum website at Jennifer Kuefner, Syntax www.longislandmuseum. org and sign up to receive e-mail alerts about our programs and events. From March 1st through April 28th the museum will present artwork from Long Island students in grades K through 12 in our annual Colors of Long Island exhibition. Art teachers from across Long Island are invited to submit up to three pieces of student art for this popular annual
exhibit. The museum will host artist receptions for the students and their teachers and families on March 10th and April 7th where visitors may meet the talented artists and view their work. Finally, in April the museum will unveil the final phase of renovations in the Carriage Museum with two new galleries. Streets of New York will feature floor-to-ceiling photo murals of 19th century city streets and a dramatic fire scene simulating a burning building surrounded by horse-drawn fire engines. Gallery floors feature cobblestone road surfaces of the carriage-era city, and historic film footage will provide a vivid picture of chaotic urban roadways at the turn of the century. Carriages for Sport and Pleasure will focus on carriage driving for the rich and status-conscious, with the recently acquired Tally Ho – the English coach that started the carriage driving craze among the 19th century upper crust – as its centerpiece. The museum is grateful to its generous sponsors, who continue to support fascinating exhibitions and programs for Long Island adults and children. An Artful Life is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York Legislature; the Karen H. Bechtel Foundation; and Astoria Federal Savings, who also support the Colors
of Long Island exhibition. The new carriage galleries are made possible with grants from NYSCA and the New York Council for the Humanities. Located at 1200 Route 25A in Stony Brook, the Long Island Museum is a Smithsonian affiliate, dedicated to American history and art with a Long Island connection. The museum will reopen Friday, March 1st from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Regular spring hours are Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5. Admission is $9 per person, $7 for seniors and $4 for students ages six to 17. Children under six and museum members are free. The museum hosts two for admission days every Thursday. For information about other exhibitions and programs please call 631.751.0066 or visit www. longislandmuseum.org.

Presidential Prominence SOUPER WEEK - Nassakeag Elementary School’s student council members scored a winning touchdown for the local St. James and R.C. Murphy Junior High School food pantries, as they collected nonperishable canned goods during their “Souper Week” Food Drive. The event, which was coordinated the week leading up to this year’s Super Bowl XLVII, called for students and staff members to help stock the shelves of the local food pantries, with a fun play on the name of the big game. Several student council members are pictured here with adviser Adele Gibbons and some of their donations. Photo provided by: Jennifer Kuefner, Syntax
February is a time for remembering some of the country’s greatest presidents – George Washington and Abraham Lincoln among them. Appropriately, the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook is home to one of the carriages that was used in Lincoln’s funeral procession in 1865.
The Circular Front Coupe, made by Brewster & Company in New York, is designed for two passengers, with a small hinged seat hidden behind the wall covering to accommodate an extra person, much like many modern sports cars. Carriages such as this one were beautifully trimmed
and appointed for private use. Though the Circular Front Coupe was just one of many vehicles that rode in the 1865 Lincoln funeral procession, it will be on prominent display here in Stony Brook as part of the Streets of New York gallery, opening at the Long Island Museum this spring.

Churchill Scholar
Stony Brook University senior, Kevin Sackel, an Honors College student double-majoring in Mathematics & Physics with a minor in Music, has been selected as a Churchill Scholar by the Winston Churchill Foundation of the United States to study at the University of Cambridge where he will spend the 2013-2014 academic year pursuing a one-year Master of Advanced Study degree in Mathematics. This prestigious award is given each year to select students that demonstrate exceptional academic talent, outstanding achievement and a capacity to contribute to the advancement of academic knowledge in their respective field. Of this year’s 14 Churchill Scholarship recipients, Sackel is the only student selected from a New York college or university. He will receive full tuition and college fees, a living allowance and a stipend for travel expenses. “We are all extremely proud of Kevin for achieving such a high honor, and as such he honors Stony Brook,” said Samuel L. Stanley Jr., MD, President of Stony Brook University. “We have celebrated three Stony Brook educated Churchill Scholars in recent years, all of whom are brilliant. Kevin is the first to be awarded this prestigious scholarship in the tremendously competitive Cambridge Department of Pure Mathematics. That he has accomplished this underlines his prowess as well as that of our Math Department. I could not be more impressed.” “Through hard work and dedication, Kevin Sackel has clearly earned what is one of the most competitive and prestigious academic opportunities in the nation,” said SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher. “As a Churchill Scholar, we are confident that he will represent New York and SUNY with distinction as he continues his studies alongside some of the world’s best and brightest young minds. Congratulations to Kevin and the entire Stony Brook community.” “I am extremely honored to have been selected as a Churchill Scholar,” Sackel said. “My experience at Stony Brook University has been wonderful and I thank all of those who have supported me throughout my academic career and during the application process for this award. I am really looking forward to my experience in the Department of Pure Mathematics at Cambridge; I think it will be great fun.” Under the direction of Stony Brook Math Professor Christopher Bishop, himself a Churchill Scholar (1982-1983), Sackel is working on his undergraduate thesis involving questions of mathematical analysis. Professor Bishop fully supported Sackel’s application
and noted that he “is the best candidate for a Churchill Scholarship I have ever seen, or expect to see.” Sackel has maintained a perfect 4.0 grade point average at Stony Brook University. Sackel also conducted independent research involving algebraic structures under the direction of Professor Martin Rocek of the Institute for Theoretical Physics. Additional faculty sponsors supporting Kevin’s application include Professors Moira Chas and Dennis Sullivan in the Department of Mathematics. Professor Chas praises Sackel’s “fantastic mind” and ranks him as “the best student I have met in my more than 20 years of teaching.” Professor Sullivan, the winner of the Wolf Prize in Mathematics (2010), in detail relates his “astonishment” at Sackel’s problem-solving abilities and describes his unique personal qualities as “very rare.”
“I am deeply impressed by Kevin’s intelligence, commitment, humility and concern for others,” said Dr. Charles Robbins, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education at Stony Brook University. “While it is unusual to meet a student with any one of these characteristics, to encounter someone who demonstrates them all on virtually a daily basis is indeed very special. Kevin is that special individual. There is no doubt in my mind that he will make the Churchill Scholarship program, Cambridge University and Stony Brook University very proud.” In his freshman year at Stony Brook, Sackel reinvigorated the Math Club and now serves as its president. For the past four years he has represented the Mathematics Department in the William Lowell Putnam Mathematics Competition, an annual competition for undergraduate students that is considered by many to be the most prestigious university-level mathematics
examination in the world. He was inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Pi Sigma Honors Societies as a junior and plays the oboe for the University Orchestra. He is a recipient of the Undergraduate Recognition Award for Academic Excellence and is a member of the computer programming team. Other honors include winning the Freshman Math Department Award; the Stony Brook Foundation Award for Excellence in Mathematics as a sophomore; and the Kugh-Sah Memorial Award in Mathematics as a junior. He regularly challenges himself with graduate level courses and in his spare time audits courses that spark his interest. He also dishes out compliments and hugs to people in front of the Student Activities Center every Monday to brighten their day. After finishing his PhD in Mathematics, Sackel hopes to enter the academic world. “Professorship appears to be the ideal job, since it would keep me strongly tied to the mathematical world through research while also allowing me to share my love of mathematics through teaching,” he said. Kevin is the fourth student from Stony Brook to be honored as a Churchill Scholar and one of only three Churchill Scholars named this year to be graduating from a public university. Previous Churchill Scholar recipients from Stony Brook University include Rita Kalra (2005-2006), Diana David (2004-2005) and Belvin Gong (1999-2000). Stony Brook University currently has three Churchill Scholars on faculty; these include Professor Bishop, Jessica Seeliger, Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmacological Sciences; and Eugene Katz, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Molecular Genetics & Biology. The Winston Churchill Foundation was established in 1959, the same year that Churchill College at the University of Cambridge was established as the national and Commonwealth tribute to Sir Winston Churchill. The first Churchill Scholarships, three in number, were made in 1963, and with this new group there will be 479 Churchill Scholars. The Churchill Scholarship pays all University and College fees (ranging from $33,500 to $37,600), a living allowance (ranging from $17,700 to $21,000), transportation to and from the United Kingdom (up to $1,100), student visa expenses ($450), a Travel Award of $500, and a possible Special Research Grant up to $2,000. Depending on the field of study, the Churchill Scholarship is worth from $52,800 to $62,600 (depending on the rate of exchange).
Real World Lessons Learned The inaugural cohort of SJB’s scientific research program, known as GENESIS, welcomed a guest speaker earlier this school year. In December, students in the GENESIS program were offered an opportunity to gain perspective on the process of conducting Doctoral
level research during a roundtable discussion with Kara Hanson Micucci, a Doctoral candidate in the field of psychology at Fordham University. Mrs. Micucci is currently studying the impact of a Catholic school setting on student self-efficacy. The SJB GENESIS
students were able to draw on the lessons they have learned through the program to ask questions about topics such as dependent and independent variables, internal review boards and the process of selecting topics to research. Dave Erlanger, the Director of
the GENESIS program said that “it was a great experience for our students to learn about the process from a Doctoral candidate actively engaged in the research process”. The GENESIS students are currently learning the basics of research and working on creating
thorough literature reviews in anticipation of starting their own projects next year. Mrs. Micucci proclaimed “it was a pleasure to present to the students in the Genesis program. The students generated several thought-provoking questions about the
research presented, shared information about their acquired knowledge, and asked questions about different college programs. They were a wonderful audience, and I truly enjoyed my time at St. John the Baptist!”

Ward Melville High School student-artists are consistently pushing their creative boundaries as they work on various school-sponsored projects. This winter, several students took an artistic leap when they transformed items once regarded as trash into an imaginative creation. Taking discarded formal and informal chairs, the sculpture class of just over 20 students repurposed the common household items into decorative museumquality pieces of art. Leading up to the end-of-semester project, teacher Jim Swierupski spent months collecting the chairs and urging his students to seek personal inspiration for their creations. “This has been a project that I have wanted to do for a while, but because of

the number of chairs we would need, it required several months of preparation,” stated Mr. Swierupski, who with a strong background in ceramics seeks to inspire students to begin exploring the 3-D world of art. “At the core, this class is about problem-solving while using the various principles and elements of art. Students are able to explore movement and various materials in a new and exciting way.” With the scheduling setbacks caused by Hurricane Sandy, the class had only two weeks to complete their finished chairs – and from the beginning sketches, it was evident that each chair would take on a life of its own. “I mostly create items using wood, and I really enjoy carving, so I knew that I wanted to some
how incorporate that into my project,” stated senior Max Reff, whose finished chair was one of the few functional pieces in the display but was not short on a level of craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from his personal life, senior Dan McCaffrey used old bagels from the store where he works to create a bagel café chair with partner Alex Varrichio. Other chairs included handcrafted paper cranes, an intertwined bird’s nest, tall bamboo shoots and a scalloped ball pit-inspired “fun house” seat. Recognizing the high caliber of the projects, the local Smithtown Township Arts Council has elected to showcase one of the completed projects during its upcoming art show.
