the first Patriot run raised money for the tom cutinella Scholarship Fund.

Last year, tragedy struck after 16-year-old Thomas Cutinella, a Shoreham-Wading River High School football player, suffered a fatal head injury after colliding with another player during a football game on Oct. 1. Cutinella died later that day. To honor his memory, community members from Shoreham-Wading River gathered on Sunday at Wildwood State Park in Wading River for the first Patriot Run. The event was sponsored by the Shoreham-Wading River Wildcat Athletic Club. John Regazzi, a physical education teacher at Wading River Elementary School, created and organized the event to honor Cutinella. Regazzi said the idea for the run came about after attend-

ing Cutinella’s service. Regazzi and three other individuals created a committee last December and started discussing their plans for the event. “I was so moved by the way the community came out to show their support for Tom and his family,” Regazzi said in an email interview. “I too, wanted to do something for this family.” Regazzi was Cutinella’s teacher when Cutinella was younger. He said that even as a boy “you could see the greatness in him.” According to Regazzi, nearly 400 people attended the event to either show their support or run the race. Cutinella’s football number, 54, was also considered when they determined the length of the race, to make it a 2.54-mile run. Alice Steinbrecher, a secPaTRIoT RUN continued on page a8

Nesconset man brings first responders’ fight to D.C. North Shore natives travel to Washington with hopes of swaying lawmakers to renew health care benefits By ViCtoria esPinoza

The 9/11 first responders who have fought for years to get health care support are heading back to Washington, D.C., in hopes of ushering in the renewal of the James L. Zadroga 9/11 Health & Compensation Act. And for one Nesconset resident, change cannot come soon enough. Parts of the bill will expire next month, and other parts in October 2016. The James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Reauthorization Act would extend the programs of the original Zadroga act indefinitely. It was introduced to Congress in April and currently has 150 bipartisan co-sponsors. “When this bill expires, our illnesses do not expire,” said John Feal, founder of the FealGood Foundation, in a phone interview. Feal, of Nesconset, has been walking the halls of Congress for the past eight years to help get this bill passed. He is also a 9/11 first responder who worked on the reconstruction at Ground Zero, and lost half of his foot in the process. He suffered from gangrene, but he says his injuries “pale in comparison to other first responders.” President Barack Obama signed the cur-

rent Zadroga act into law in 2011 and established the World Trade Center Health Program, which will expire in October if not renewed. The WTC program ensured that those whose health was affected by 9/11 would receive monitoring and treatment services for their health-related problems. It consists of a responder program for rescue and recovery workers and New York City firefighters, and a survivor program for those who lived, worked or went to school in lower Manhattan on Sept. 11, 2001. The Zadroga act also reopened the September 11th Victims Compensation Act, which allows for anyone affected to file claims for economic losses due to physical harm or death caused by 9/11. That will expire in October of next year. Feal said he was asked by television personality Jon Stewart to come on “The Daily Show” in December 2010, but the Nesconset native said he did not want to leave the real legislative fight in D.C. Instead, he helped get four 9/11 responders to the Dec. 16, 2010, episode, who helped shed light on the ongoing battle these responders were dealing with in Congress. “He was definitely one of the reasons the bill got passed,” Feal said of Stewart.

art accompanied Feal and many other first responders when they traveled to Washington, D.C, on Wednesday, Sept. 16, and took part in a mini rally. The bill did not pass the first time it was presented to Congress back in 2006. A new version was drafted in 2010 and passed in the House of Representatives, but was having trouble getting through the Senate due to a Republican filibuster. The bill received final congressional approval on Dec. 22, 2010, and was enacted by the president on Jan. 2, 2011. “As we get older these illnesses will become debilitating,” Feal said. “Not extend-

ing this bill is criminal. People will die without. It’s a life-saving piece of legislation.” Jennifer McNamara, a Blue Point resident and president of The Johnny Mac Foundation, is also actively involved in the fight to keep responders health costs covered. Her late husband, John McNamara, passed away in 2009 from stage IV colon cancer. He was a New York City Firefighter and worked more than 500 hours at the World Trade Center in the aftermath of 9/11. He worked with responders to get support for the Zadroga bill before he died. ZADROGA continued on page A11

Remembering, reflecting on those lost on Sept. 11 By Giselle Barkley

When it comes to Sept. 11, 2001, people don’t forget, they reflect, as Congressman Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) said during the Rocky Point Fire Department’s 9/11 memorial ceremony last Friday. Residents from Rocky Point, Shoreham, Ridge and other communities gathered last Friday at the 9/11 memorial site next to the Shoreham firehouse to remember and pay tribute to those they lost 14 years ago. The Rocky Point Fire Department 9/11 Memorial Committee hosted the event. Community members continued to fill the memorial site area as firefighters from Rocky Point, Shoreham, Miller Place and other areas, marched onto the site — standing in front the wall of names and near one of the site’s entrances. Firefighters and those in attendance remained standing for the nearly 40-minute ceremony, as fire department officials, politicians and others spoke at the ceremony. The event commenced with the Pledge of Allegiance followed by Rocky Point High School students singing “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Reverend Mark Clevenger recited a prayer before Chairman of the Rocky Point Fire Department 9/11 Memorial Committee, David Singer, took to the podium. Singer acknowledged those who helped execute the ceremony, including the Rocky Point Fire Department Board of Fire Com-

missioners, the chief of staff, local officials, those who contributed their time and money and the group Singer leads. “That group takes great pride in this memorial and our mission is both honoring and never forgetting the thousands of men and women that perished that day 14 years ago,” Singer said. “This memorial also serves as a reminder to all the civilians and first responders that have died since 9/11 resulting from the 9/11-related [health] complications. Please keep all these people in your hearts and prayers every day.” This is the department’s fourth 9/11 ceremony after the memorial site opened in 2011 after the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11.

According to Stephen Tumulty, ex-commissioner of the Rocky Point Fire Department, it took one year to complete portions of the site, including the steel centerpiece, which is a portion of the World Trade Center, and wall, which includes the names of every first responder who died on Sept. 11. Like for many responders, 9/11 memorial ceremonies are important especially for Tumulty, who led a search and rescue operation in the aftermath of the attacks. “I spent a lot of time down there,” Tumulty said before pausing to fight back tears. “I was down there for weeks, so to me, this is important because [there’s] a lot of people on that wall that I knew.”

The wall is made of granite and stainless steel plates, with nearly 3,000 names stenciled on it. The wall has a light, which illuminates the names at night. Although people like Donna Murphy of Shoreham didn’t lose a first responder on Sept. 11, these memorials help her remember those she did lose that day. “I lost a lot of co-workers that day, so I try to honor them by coming here,” Murphy said. “My husband was [also] a cop. He was there. It’s almost like a ritual now that we come [to the Rocky Point 9/11 memorial] every year.” One thing that wasn’t lost that day was a pear tree that was located in close proximity to the World Trade Center. According to Singer, scientists extracted several seeds, which have since grown into saplings. Singer added that the tree will continue the legacy of the tree that survived. He hopes the tree will remind people of America’s “resilience, survival and rebirth.” Zeldin who was the first of four officials — Senator Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson), Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) and Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro (R) — to speak, reminded the community that despite the tragedy, America is not a helpless country. “September 11, 2001, is a day that in some respects may have made our country weaker,” Zeldin said. “But in so many other ways, it made America so much greater, stronger.”

A two-tiered piece of legislation on the county level is looking to tackle some of Long Island’s most pressing issues, from the medicine counter to the waterways, all in one fell swoop. A proposal to establish a drug stewardship program throughout the county could potentially build upon existing drug take-back programs, playing off recent legislation enacted in Alameda County, California, and ultimately keep drugs out of our drinking water, lawmakers said. Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn (DSetauket) introduced the piece of legislation earlier this summer with hopes of providing residents with more convenient ways to get rid of their unused medicine before the county’s next general meeting in October. “This is a duel benefit,” Hahn said. “I’ve wanted to find a way to get pharmacies to be required to take back prescription drugs, and this doesn’t quite require that, but it could be an end result.” The local law proposal argued that while pharmaceuticals are essential to the treatment of illnesses and long-term conditions, residents at large still do not dispose of them properly, running the risk of certain drugs ending up in public drinking water supplies and causing harm to the environment. And with Suffolk County sitting on top of a sole source aquifer, which provides residents with necessary drinking water, Hahn argued that protecting the aquifer was critical to the health and safety of Long Island as a whole. “The idea is to begin a discussion on this. Federal regulations have changed to allow pharmacies to take back certain drugs, but the state level has been dragging their feet on the local regulations in order to make this possible here,” Hahn said. “They can’t drag their feet any longer. All kinds of medicines are being found in our water when our health inspectors do their sampling. We have to find a way on both these fronts to control what is happening.” The legislator said she was playing off the recently passed law in California, which also established a drug product stewardship policy requiring manufacturers to design and fund collection programs for medications. Similar programs have also sprouted up in Canada, France, Spain and Portugal. A spokesman for Hahn said the bill would essentially establish a manufacturer-administered pharmaceutical take-back program that would provide residents with convenient ways to safely and environmentally responsibly dispose of expired and unneeded medications. “This program, if adopted, will primarily impact and improve water quality rather than deal with drug abuse,” Seth Squicciarino, the spokesman, said. “However, it is reasonable to assume that if there are less unused, unneeded and forgotten prescription drugs in medicine cabinets, it could reduce drug experimentation especially among first time users.” Currently, residents’ only course of action when looking to properly dispose of unused medicine is to bring their prescriptions to the 4th Precinct or 6th Precinct of the Suffolk County Police Department, which then dumps the drugs into an incinerator — which Hahn described as the most environmentally friendly way to dispose of drugs right now.

ond-grade teacher at Miller Avenue Elementary School, also helped organize the race and said the two decided to call the event the Patriot Run to honor Cutinella’s own patriotism. “One of [Tom’s] biggest loves was his country, besides his family,” Steinbrecher said. “He cared so much about the men and women fighting for our country.” Those who wanted to participate had to register to enter the race. The fee was $20 for adults and $15 for children if residents registered before or by Sept. 4. Those who registered the day of the event paid an additional $5. Although everyone who registered for the event received a ticket for the barbecue that followed the race, only those who pre-registered received a T-shirt in support of the event. According to a friend of Cutinella who wanted to remain unidentified, the money is going toward the Tom Cutinella Scholarship Fund. “I knew him for a while ... and he just, he’s the kind of kid you’d see in the hallway and no matter who you are ... he’d say hi,” the friend said. “He didn’t see social barriers. He [was] just a friend to everybody. I think that’s why the whole community was united [after his death].” A total of $70,545 has been raised for the scholarship before the event, but it is still unclear when Regazzi will know how much money they raised at the Patriot Run. The Cutinella family didn’t speak regarding the event or the loss of their son as the media was asked to respect the family’s privacy. Jim Madden of Wading River is a parent of a student who went to school with

Cutinella. Madden says the incident reminds people that unexpected events can happen. “He was hurt on the football field and many of us have children that participate in sports whether it’s football, lacrosse, baseball,” he said. “It’s a parent’s worst nightmare when something like that happens. It’s chilling to all the other spectators and the other parents and it’s a reminder to everyone that things like this can happen. Life really is very fragile you have to cherish every day.” The event is one of several scheduled for this year. The Thomas Cutinella Memorial Foundation is also supporting Cutinella in the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Tower Run in New York City on Sunday, Sept. 27, and the organization’s first golf tournament is on Monday, Oct. 12, at the Baiting Hollow Country Club in Baiting Hollow. The hope is that these events, including the Patriot Run, will help those Cutinella cared about while keeping his memory alive. “He was a great kid,” Steinbrecher said. “Last fall was a big tragedy for our community, so this year we wanted a chance for the community to come together in a positive way. The Cutinella family [is] asking people to go out and do acts of kindness in his honor and so this was our way of getting the community together.”

More mosquitoes test positive for West Nile virus To date,158 mosquitos have been found

Suffolk County Health Commissioner Dr. James L. Tomarken announced today that 31 mosquito samples have tested positive for West Nile virus. The mosquito samples, all Culex pipiens-restuans, were collected from Sept. 1 through Sept. 3 from Lindenhurst (2), North Babylon (2), West Babylon (1), Copiague (3), Huntington (1) South Huntington (1), Huntington Station (1) Northport (1), Dix Hills (1), Smithtown (1), Nesconset (2), Holbrook (2), Holtsville (2), Farmingville (1), Stony Brook (2), Setauket (2), Port Jefferson Station (3), Rocky Point (1), East Hampton (1) and Southold (1). To date this year, 158 mosquito samples have tested positive for West Nile virus. No humans or horses have tested positive for the virus in Suffolk this year. First detected in birds and mosquito samples in Suffolk in 1999, and again each year thereafter, the virus is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. While Dr. Tomarken said there’s no cause for alarm, the county is urging residents to reduce exposure to the virus, which “can be debilitating to humans.” “The breed of mosquito known as culex pipiens/restuans lay their eggs in fresh water-filled containers, so dumping rainwater that collects in containers around your house is important,” he said. Residents should try to eliminate stagnant water where mosquitos breed, in order to reduce the mosquito population around homes. That includes: disposing of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots or similar water-holding containers; removing discarded tires; cleaning clogged gutters; turning over plastic wading pools and wheelbarrows when they’re not being used; changing the water in bird baths; and draining water from pool covers Most people infected with West Nile will experience mild or no symptoms, but some can develop severe symptoms, including high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. The symptoms may last several weeks and neurological effects may be permanent. Individuals, especially those 50 years of age or older or those with compromised immune systems, who are most at risk, are urged to take precautions to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. Residents are advised to avoid mosquito bites by: minimizing outdoor activities between dusk and dawn; wearing shoes and socks, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors for long periods of time or when mosquitos are more active; using mosquito repellent when outdoors, following label directions carefully; and making sure all windows and doors have screens and that all screens are in good condition. “The confirmation of West Nile virus in mosquito samples or birds indicates the presence of West Nile virus in the area,” said Dr. Tomarken. “While there is no cause for alarm, we urge residents to cooperate with us in our efforts to reduce the exposure to the virus, which can be debilitating to humans. The breed of mosquito known as Culex pipiens-restuans lay their eggs in fresh water-filled containers, so dumping rainwater that collects in containers around your house is important.” To report dead birds, call the West Nile virus hotline in Suffolk County at 631-787-2200 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Residents are encouraged to take a photograph of any bird in question. To report mosquito problems or stagnant pools of water, call the Department of Public Works’ Vector Control Division at 631-852-4270. For medical questions related to West Nile virus, call 631-854-0333.

Rocky Point Superintendent of Schools Michael F. Ring welcomes several Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School students back to school on Sept. 2.

First week commences

Rocky Point students, staff and administrators kicked off the 2015-16 school year in early September and celebrated the first day of school on Sept. 2. Throughout the summer, the custodial staff worked diligently to clean and prepare the buildings, while adminis-

trators and teachers returned to school early to prepare for the first day. As with any new beginning, the start of school brought with it an array of emotions. Younger students said goodbyes to parents and started down their academic path, while high school up-

perclassmen prepared for the nearing conclusion of their journey through the Rocky Point School District. The students’ adaptation to being back in school was flawless, making for a successful start of school and a promising year ahead.

Stephanie D. Gonzales of Rocky Point took part in an off-campus internship this summer through SUNY Oswego’s Center for Experiential Learning. The senior majoring in human development interned with AHRC Suffolk in Shoreham. The Center for Experiential Learning at Oswego places students in internships and provides career awareness opportunities that allow them to earn college credits while garnering valuable life experience. During the last year, more than 1,000 Oswego students took part in experiential learning while working at hundreds of businesses, nonprofit agencies and government offices and on campus in dozens of departments and programs — not counting the hundreds of student teachers working in area schools. Another SUNY Oswego student, David E. Fuenzalida of Mount Sinai, has earned the Dean’s Award in recognition of his past academic achievement and potential for success.

Take a trip to Maycomb with Port Jeff library Join the Port Jefferson Free Library on Sunday, Sept. 20, for a discussion of Harper Lee, the author of one of the most popular books that deal with race relations in the United States, “To Kill a Mockingbird.” The southerner recently released her second book, “Go Set a Watchman,” 55 years after her first was published. The story, like “To Kill a Mockingbird,” is seen through the eyes of Jean Louise “Scout” Finch and returns the protagonist and hero Atticus Finch, Scout’s father. The books are set in the fictional Maycomb, Ala., the first in the 1930s and the second in the 1950s.

“I made him a promise to continue to lend support to get this legislation passed,” Jennifer McNamara said in a

TBR

Both books are loosely based on the hometown and life experiences of Lee. In the library program “Harper Lee: A Riddle Wrapped in a Mystery Inside an Enigma,” Stony Brook University professor emeritus Michael Edelson will present an illustrated talk of Lee’s life and work, including unpublished writings. Edelson will use interviews, film clips and photos analyzing both books and the Oscar-winning 1962 film “To Kill a Mockingbird” starring Gregory Peck as Atticus. Copies of each book will be available for those who attend the program, which starts at 2 p.m. phone interview. When her husband passed away, she said there weren’t as many responders getting sick as there are now. “People are dying more quickly, and more are getting diagnosed with cancers and other illnesses,” she said

earlier on, her husband could’ve been diagnosed before his cancer was stage IV, and he could’ve had a better chance. “These people did tremendous things for their country,” McNamara said. “They shouldn’t have to guess about whether they are going to be taken care of.”

Eagles shut down and shut out in loss to Comsewogue Boys’ soccer

Comsewogue . . . . . . . 5 Rocky Point . . . . . . . . 0 By Desirée Keegan

The Rocky Point boys’ soccer team struggled in League V action Friday, when Comsewogue invaded Eagles territory and blanked the team, 5-0. “They played very flat,” Rocky Point head coach Joe Camarda said. “It just wasn’t our game today. They didn’t really step up the way we’ve been playing, so it was one of our weaker games.” Comsewogue sophomore forward Luis Hernandez scored first less than four min-

utes into the game from outside the right goalpost, giving his team the early lead. Almost 10 minutes of back-and-forth action later, Comsewogue made another good attempt, but Rocky Point junior goalkeeper Michael Antici made one of his eight saves of the day. Despite Antici’s efforts, the Warriors found the back of the net again before the halftime break. With 3:30 left, senior midfielder Nick Towler headed the ball off a corner kick into the right side of the goal to give his team a 2-0 advantage. The Warriors were gunning to get another one at the start of the second half but didn’t capitalize until senior midfielder John Koebel scored off a foul kick that had been sent into the box and rebounded off

an opponent. On the other end of the field, Warriors senior goalie Steven Towler made a couple of strong saves during the second half to preserve the shutout, but overall did not see much action. Comsewogue senior midfielders Jake Muller and Trevor Kennedy tacked on the final two goals of the game, the latter lighting up the scoreboard when Antici tried to catch a corner kick but instead sent the ball bouncing off his hands and into the net. “Today was a big improvement,” Comsewogue head coach Don O’Brien said. “We’ve been struggling with some injuries and today we finally put a team on the field. They executed the offensive system of play and we created a lot of chances.” Despite losing some of their top playmakers to graduation last year, Comsewogue is optimistic about the future. “I think we need a little more experience,” Nick Towler said. “We try to get more nonleague games just so we can build up that experience, but we put all of our effort into today, and that’s what we can be proud of heading into next week.” O’Brien said that after a performance like the Warriors had, he’s looking forward to the rest of the season. “The game plan was executed to perfection — we just have to keep building and get better,” he said. “I knew it was going to take some time for them to work together offensively to create chances, and that’s exactly what they did today.” Through the midfield and attack, Camarda said his athletes weren’t patient enough to get opportunities and finish them.

Rocky Point senior defender Jimmy Gohn agreed. “We just had an off game,” he said. “We had some OK plays every now and again when we blasted the ball and made some connections up top, but unfortunately we didn’t get too many of those and didn’t do well clearing the ball in the back.” But Camarda thinks his team has what it takes to be a contender in League V. “This is, to me, one of my best teams,” he said. “Talent-wise and attitude-wise, they’ve really come together. I think we’re going to have a good season and surprise a lot of people, but if we play like today, I don’t think we will.”

Emergency medical technicians Bryan Monahan and Jamie Santiago attended The North Tap’s charity event on Sept. 11, which honored first responders.

had anything in a long time — thank god, but it’s nice to get out here and still see we’re appreciated for the work that we do.“ One of those people is Bryan Monahan, a Medford resident and friend of Montanino’s who arranged for disc jockeys DJ Movement and DJ Ora Sounds to perform at the event. Both donated their time, rather than be paid. Monahan compared his memories of 9/11 to his parent’s stories of the assassination of President Kennedy, saying it was a moment where everyone in their generation remembers exactly what they were doing when they heard the news. For him, it was

sitting in second period sports management class at Patchogue-Medford High School. The day also brought tragedy for Monahan’s community. Medford resident Joseph Vigiano, a New York City police detective, was killed in the attacks, along with his brother John Vigiano Jr., a New York City firefighter. Both died saving civilians from the crumbling towers. Joseph Vigiano lived down the street from Monahan. “It hit our family, our block, our actual community,” he said. “We were devastated.” Reflecting on the day, Amanda Anderson, an EMT based in Riverhead, stressed only a few people are meant for the job. “Don’t do it for a reward, because that’s not what this job is about,” she said. “Do it because you want to.”

to be very varied depending on the particular locations,” he said. Housing our Homeless Heroes doesn’t stop at just housing. At the same meeting, the Legislature approved Helping Our Veterans lane (HOV lane) legislation, sponsored by Legislator Tom Cilmi (REast Islip) and Stern. The legislation’s goal is to expedite veteran services within the county’s Department of Social Services. Stern said many times, veterans walk into the county’s DSS for services they may typically need from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and they are “turned away.” He said it becomes a challenge to get them to come back to a

government assistance office. The HOV lane legislation would pair veterans who are seeking services at DSS with a veteran services officer. Their requests would be fast-tracked when they walk into the department — regardless of whether they’re at the right office. “That’s very important here, because veterans, too many of them, face too many challenges and time becomes very important,” Stern said. Stern said he’s proud of the enactment of Housing our Homeless Heroes. “I have every reason to believe that it’s going to serve as model for the rest of the country,” he said.

OPINION EDITORIAL

Never means never

The definition of hero is a person who is admired, or idealized, for courage. And we can’t think of a more courageous act than stepping up and putting others first in the aftermath of a tragedy like the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack. When the dust had settled on that horrific day, elected leaders stood hand-in-hand with our first responders, whether they were firefighters, police officers or just volunteers. The narrative was that we would honor their sacrifices and do whatever it took to back them up, long after the debris was removed. And yet here we are, 14 years later, making them wait to see whether the

government will have their backs when they need it most. Never forget, right? This week, Nesconset native John Feal headed to Washington, D.C., alongside other heroic first responders from across the Island, state and country to call on Congress to renew the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act. Originally approved five years ago, the legislation helped provide health care and programs to more than 33,000 of our first responders and their families because of complications stemming from their efforts at Ground Zero. But that legislation is slated to expire next month, and it’s not clear whether it will be renewed. What happened to doing whatever it took to support our heroes? It is shameful to have this same discussion every few years, once legislation expires, because all that does is turn these people into political bargaining chips. To us, that doesn’t seem like a

worthy reward for their sacrifices. It’s time to take permanent action so people like Feal and the many others

who worked alongside him know that we will have their backs — because they had ours when we needed it most.

Law has flaws TO THE EDITOR: We are writing in opposition to the Brookhaven Town Board’s plan to restrict the usage of our public roadways based on homeownership status. The introduction of local law 82-10(G) “Registered Motor Vehicle Restrictions” would create two separate and unequal laws regarding which town residents are permitted to park vehicles on town roadways. While it is certainly in the town’s purview to

File photo by Elana Glowatz

determine how our roadways should be used, our laws should apply equally to all. It is unwise to create restrictive laws meant to apply only to certain members of our society — in this instance, based on their homeownership status. If the Town Board feels street parking regulations are necessary, then those regulations should be implemented townwide. To target only certain residents for selective enforcement is unAmerican and quite possibly illegal. Shawn Nuzzo, President The Civic Association of the Setaukets & Stony Brook

The academic angels of Back to School Night

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

he night starts off with the top dog standing in front of a packed auditorium, selling all of us on the idea that what our children are about to receive in the form of another year of education at their fine institution is a spectacular blend of academic learning, extracurricular opportunities, social growth and development, and personal inspiration.

Ah, can’t you just hear the academic angels singing? Somewhere in that magical evening known as Back to School Night, the principal and his or her vice-principal minions suggest how spectacular the teachers are, how magnificent the community is, how incredible the resources are and, most of all, how wonderful the parents are for being involved and coming to this Evening of Champions. These people who are in these top academic positions are often doctors, although they’re not the kind with stethoscopes and they don’t have a waiting room full of old copies of People magazine. They assure us that they’re people, too, and that they’ve been where we are. They know what it’s like to have someone they’ve brought into the world treat them as if they’re somewhere between an athlete’s foot fungus and a pimple surfacing on the tip of their nose just before the most

incredible moment of their lives. But, wait, there’s more. Their teachers tell us what they’ll learn, they smile, shake our hands — and assure us how excited they are to be sharing in this experience with our wonderful children. Wonderful? Seriously? We can only hope that’s the case when they’re in school because the “wonderful” has been squeezed out of them by hormones that turn their voices into violins with broken strings, by their tough-love coaches, and by their would-be girlfriends and boyfriends who have decided that today is perfect to send them a text saying, “Sorry, we can’t date anymore because I’m looking for someone better.” It’s almost like one of those old-fashioned sing-alongs, where we watch teachers with their Smart Boards at the front of the room, following the bouncing ball as it wows us with one after another of the stops on the journey to enlightenment.

EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Leah S. Dunaief GENERAL MANAGER Johness Kuisel MANAGING EDITOR Phil Corso EDITOR Desirée Keegan

For comic relief, we might get to hear from a teacher who seems about as comfortable speaking in public as I did when I was in seventh grade. He might look down at his feet as he talks, read from a script or take two huge gulps before each sentence. Speaking in front of a group of people, we realize quickly, is not exactly the ideal way to spend his day. As they talk, they tell us how much they love a subject that, truth be told, might not be their first choice. However, the nearest district hiring biology teachers is an hour away and our school desperately needs a language arts teacher. They implore us to share information about our kids. That’s when we reach into our sales bag and suggest how eager our children are to fill their minds with inspiration and information. We plaster an enthusiastic smile on our faces as we hand in our creative writing assignments. We emerge from the school,

LEISURE EDITOR Heidi Sutton SPORTS EDITOR Desirée Keegan ONLINE EDITOR Elana Glowatz

It’s almost like one of those old-fashioned sing-alongs

ready to take all that sales energy and turn ourselves into cheerleaders for education and our children. “Oh, honey, I met your science teacher last night and she seemed so spectacular.” “That’s interesting, Dad, because my science teacher is a man.” “Wait, are you joking?” The children share a devilish smile, pick up their heavy backpacks and trudge off to a place where the sounds in the real world corridors — real and in their own heads — are often nothing like a chorus of those academic angels.
