EDUCATION TBR NEWS MEDIA

SWR schools introduce anonymous reporting app Shoreham-Wading River school district is asking students and staff to become the eyes and ears of the school with the introduction of the anonymous Report It app as part of the district’s increasing focus on school security. “Last fall we started to look at different ways that students could report any safety or security issues they may have where they weren’t comfortable reporting in a regular venue,” Superintendent Gerard Poole said. “This was an anonymous way to let us know if there was something they know or to give us some advance notice of something that may be emerging.” The Report It app allows students, teachers, staff or community members who access the website or download the app to anonymously report on any activity they think is suspicious to the school, whether its security or drugs related or even involving social media and cyberbullying. Alan Meinster, the assistant superintendent for curriculum, instruction and assessment said at an April 18 board of education meeting each of the four district principals and administration will

receive the tips and are responsible for checking up on any reports. The information in the report will then be monitored by the district main office. “There are protocols they have to do involving investigating any information that is receive — all the principles will always follow the standard protocol, and part of that protocol is consulting with district administration,” Meinster said at the meeting. The reports are monitored during regular school hours. The app has been active in the district for approximately a month, but Poole said the district has yet to see any reports that have required action. Though Poole admitted that since reporting is anonymous there is potential for false reports, he believes students and staff understand the purpose and gravity of what this app means for the school. “We had a high school assembly where we were telling students how to use the app and what it was for, and I think the students took it very seriously as an option for them,” Poole said. “We haven’t had any false reports yet, and while there is potential for false reports it wasn’t enough of a concern for us not to implement it.”

Poole said that the school is not liable if they do not take action on any specific report. The app is part of the district’s See It, Say It, Report It campaign to get students and staff active in being mindful of school safety. The app joins other security features that the district has

implemented this year such as a visitor management system in all district buildings that scans licenses and prints out a tag with a person’s destination and photo. The district has also hired two more security guards for large gatherings as well arrival and dismissal during the school day. The district is planning to implement more security features over the summer. Poole said the goal is for students to come back next year to new security vestibules and a student ID swipe-in system at the high school and Albert G. Prodell Middle School. The security features will be built with funds from the ongoing bond project. Anthony Lavalle, executive director of Sayville-based Report It Inc., said that the app was designed for use in today’s technological age. “If you are going to encourage a student to come forward, which is not an easy thing to do, you have to provide mechanisms that are conducive to the culture,” Lavalle said. “Even today if you think about it, a school shooting in Texas, school shooting in Florida, the concept is that students potentially know about these types of things, but they do

not communicate them because of fear of some sort of retribution or retaliation.” After the Feb. 14 Parkland, Florida, shooting, Lavalle said he’s seen a lot more interest from local schools in Report It as a means of enhancing security. A number of school districts on Long Island, including Half Hollow Hills, Plainedge, Lynbrook, Port Washington and Malverne have also signed on to using the app. The application is web-based, but there is also an option for users to download it to their phone. Each school building’s webpage has a link that sends it to that specific building’s Report It page. If logging into the app from the website, users will have to input five digits for reporting for Shoreham-Wading River schools. The code starts with “SWR,” with the last two letters being the school the user is sending it to, which are “HS” for the high school, “MS” for Albert G. Prodell Middle School, “MA” for Miller Avenue Elementary and “WR” for Wading River Elementary School. School officials urge that if the report is an emergency, to immediately call 911 or contact emergency services.

Mount Sinai-Miller Place chamber asks for community support The Mount Sinai-Miller Place Chamber Alliance has sprung up from the ashes after the dissolution of the North Brookhaven Chamber of Commerce and hopes to learn from its mistakes. “We will help promote shop local,” said Donna Boeckel, co-president of the chamber and co-owner of Awsomotive Car Care in Mount Sinai. “We want to help people recognize how much value and personable small businesses we have in these two areas.” Boeckel was joined by more than 30 local business operators and owners, Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) and Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) who wanted to show support during the chamber’s first meeting May 16. The Mount Sinai-Miller Place Chamber Alliance expects to hold meetings the first Wednesday of every month. In October 2017, the North Brookhaven Chamber of Commerce, which covered businesses from Port Jefferson Station to Wading River, dissolved because the time commitment proved too much for such a large coverage area. It was then decided that the chamber would split up to take on original shapes, which focused on business in just a handful of hamlets. “It got too big — the businesses of separate hamlets, whether they’re in Miller

“It’s good to immerse yourself in the business community,” said chamber member Brett Hochreiter, managing director of Long Island Tint in Rocky Point. “You get your name out there, you get some exposure, hopefully you get some leads.” One of the biggest issues that members said they face is maintaining clientele when the lure of online shopping, especially with Amazon, is so strong. “People have to remember to shop local — Amazon is not going to the schools, Amazon is not supporting your community, it’s not employing your children,” Dzvonar said. Anker echoed the Port Jefferson Station chamber president’s sentiment. “Chambers are so important because you can energize your community,” Anker said. “You can make sure people understand they need to put their money where their house is. Made in the U.S.A and shop local are taking precedence over convenience.” Boeckel emphasized that the work for the chamber was and will continue to be done on a volunteer basis. Many members work full time, but she said the important thing is that local businesses should continue to support one another by donating just a little time. “That’s what it takes,” Boeckel said. “We’re all doers. It takes doers to do what we do.” The chamber can be contacted by phone at 631-223-8558, email at MSMPChamber@ gmail.com or through mail at P.O. Box 566, Mount Sinai, New York, 11766.

With graduation approaching comes a new outreach program to keep kids safe. Suffolk County District Attorney Tim Sini (D) announced an initiative aimed at educating high school students and their parents on the dangers of impaired and reckless driving May 14. The program, Choices & Consequences, is described as a dynamic, engaging presentation that is provided by assistant district attorneys and detectives assigned to the county District Attorney’s Office’s Vehicular Crime Bureau. “Whether it’s texting and driving, drinking or doing drugs and driving, these decisions can be fatal,” Sini said. “The Choices & Consequences program drives that message home to teens and their parents by using real-life examples that unfortunately have changed lives forever, have taken lives from us prematurely, and have devastated victims’ families and friends here in Suffolk County.” According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the leading cause of death for people in the United States between 15 and 24 years old is motor vehicle crashes. In Suffolk County, the leading causes of motor vehicle crashes are impaired driving and reckless or distracted driving. During Sini’s tenure as the county’s police commissioner, motor vehicle crashes within the police district were reduced by more than 30 percent as a result of a multipronged enforcement effort to increase traffic safety. “I’m proud to say that the Suffolk County Police Department and its partners have been successful reducing motor vehicle crashes that result in serious physical injuries or fatalities, but enforcement is just one piece of our approach,” Sini said. “We need to educate — we need to raise awareness of making bad decisions behind the wheel.” The Choices & Consequences program is based on a presentation created in the Kings County District Attorney’s Office in Brooklyn and later adopted by the Nassau County District Attorney’s Office. It comprises facts and statistics on impaired and reckless driving; interactive skits that show how police officers respond to motor vehicle crash scenes and detect impairment; and demonstrations of the impacts of alcohol and drugs on motor skills. In partnership with the Long Island Council on Alcoholism & Drug Dependence, the scope of the effort has been expanded to educate participants about the dangers of substance use in an effort to combat the opioid epidemic. LICADD, in conjunction with The Christopher D. Smithers Foundation, a family charitable foundation concentrated on alcohol-use disorder and addiction, and on educating the public that addiction is a medical illness, recently released a public service announcement, titled “Hey Charlie,” that highlights the progression of drug addiction and encourages those struggling with substance abuse to seek treatment. “LICADD is proud to partner with the District Attorney’s Office as it takes the lead in making sure that this lifesaving education is provided to every student and every parent in Suffolk County,” said Steve Chassman, executive director of LICADD. “It’s so important when dealing with a disease that is potentially preventable to get this message out in every Long Island school. This is how we are going to turn the corner on this epidemic.” Sini invited school districts and community groups across Suffolk County to participate in the program by emailing infoda@suffolkcountyny.gov or calling 631-853-5602. “We have proms, graduations and the summer months coming up, so it’s the perfect time for schools to invite us in to provide this presentation,” Sini said. “It’s a terrific opportunity for schools to be on the cutting edge of education and prevention. There are a lot of presentations out there, but I guarantee that if you sit through this presentation, it will impact your life and the way you make decisions. It is that powerful.”

Advancing mathematical education is one of our primary goals as educators, and receiving these awards are a testament to the many hours of dedication to excellence our teachers and students exhibit every day.” The Miller Place Math Olympiads team ended the competition with a score of 189, which was in the Top 20 percent of all participating schools throughout the country. “This has been our best year in the Math Olympiads yet, and we look forward to raising the bar even higher next year,” said Laddie A. Decker Elementary School Principal Catherine Honeyman. “A strong foundation in mathematics is essential to every student’s education, and we’re honored by this exceptional recognition of the Miller Place School District’s rigorous math program.” Math Olympiads contests take place at each participating school throughout the country across several months. Each contest consists of five atypical math problems that must be solved under a time limit. Each student, working alone, scores a point for each correct answer. Teams can consist of up to 35 students, and the team score is the sum of the 10 highest individual scores. “It was truly a team effort,” said Math Olympiads Coordinator Evan Curran. “Each student contributed to our final score.”

Students in Linda Burke’s Miller Avenue Elementary School class shared writings with their families during a recent Young Authors Celebration. After extensive research in the school library on animals that are indigenous to Long Island, the second-graders had their published works available for reading and comments. Their finished reports on owls, raccoons, ducks, deer and more consisted of a table of contents, comprehensive information on the animal and a back page that included a short bio on the author. The project demonstrated the school’s commitment and achievements in this academic discipline.

Shoreham-Wading River’s star senior Katherine Lee shows no sign of slowing down. The Georgetown University comit won the Division III 3,000-meter run and placed second in the pole vault in the Suffolk County girls track and field division championships May 21 at Connetquot. Lee crossed the finish line in 10 minutes, 13.55 seconds, just a second ahead of second place. Mount Sinai sophomore Sarah Connelly finished in 10:14.69 and her classmate Isabella DiPalermo was right behind her coming in third in 10:25.10. The race proved successful for other local athletes, as Mount Sinai’s Noreen Guilfoyle (No. 6), Shoreham-Wading River’s Alexandra Smith (No. 7), Miller Place’s Danelle Rose (No. 8) and Rocky Point’s Nica Perrino (No. 10) all rounded out the Top 10. The 400 hurdles was also a popular event. Mount Sinai junior Kayleigh Robinson finished first in 1:07.78, Miller Place freshman Paulina Gasparis placed second in 1:07.86 and Mount Sinai freshman Kaitlyn Chandrika crossed the finish line in third in 1:08.34. Three other Panthers runners finished in the Top 10. Chandrika helped continue Mount Sinai’s winning ways when she crossed the Division III 800-meter run finish line ahead of the pack. Her time of 2:17.5 was just under a second ahead of

Shoreham-Wading River and Miller Place also had Top 7 finishers in the 800. Mount Sinai junior Aristea Franks raced to a second-place time in the 200 dash and Miller Place senior Jillian Patterson finished first in the 400 dash. Miller Place’s 4x400 relay placed second and Mount Sinai’s third. Mount Sinai sophomore Sarah Gunasekera leapt to second in the triple jump and Rocky Point eighth-grader Alexandra Kelly to third.

Clockwise from above, Morgan Mitchell battles at the draw circle; Meaghan Tyrrell dumps the ball over the Rocky Point goalkeeper’s head for the go-ahead goal; Gabby Sartori holds the ball on the sideline; some seniors hug following the win; and Meaghan Scutaro carries the ball across the field from the defensive end.

Mustangs edge Rocky Point en route to Class C title game BY DESIRÉE KEEGAN DESIREE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Meaghan Tyrrell has put the team on her back before. With Mount Sinai down 5-4 at halftime, Tyrrell lifted her stick high above her head and sent her shot over visiting Rocky Point’s goalkeeper for the go-ahead goal, her second straight to start the second half, in the Mustangs 6-5 Class C semifinal win May 22. As she pulled down her arms, with them, the weight came crashing down.

Mount Sinai 6 Rocky Point 5

“Relief,” the Syracuse University-bound senior said of how she felt following the score. “Being down is always a stressful situation. We needed to stay composed. We knew each draw counted. Once the opportunity presented itself, I took it. I knew this was where our momentum would build.” Senior Gabby Sartori scored on a free position goal to put Mount Sinai ahead 6-4. Tyrrell won six draw controls and Morgan Mitchell (one goal, two assists) won three. Mitchell, a junior, is following in the footsteps of Kasey, her older sister, who just finished her freshman year on the No. 1ranked Stony Brook women’s lacrosse team. “I kept working and working, and my sister helped tremendously,” Morgan Mitchell said. “I felt comfortable, I changed things up — push and then pull to myself.” She didn’t start the season at the draw circle after banging her knee and missing scrimmages, but she’s been impressing others. “She’s one of the brightest spots this season so far,” head coach Al Bertolone said. “She’s done a tremendous job all season. Since we got her back it’s been full steam ahead.” Mitchell was working hard in the first half, scoring the first goal and assisting on the next two as Mount Sinai went up 3-0 early. Senior Meaghan Scutaro made back-to-back stops on defense to keep Rocky Point at bay. “It gets our momentum going when defense gets good stops like that,” she said. “We were looking to take away their key players — Maddy Sanchez, Bri Lamoureux, Christina Bellisimo — take their midfield out of the game, but it became a really tight one.” Bellisimo (three goals, one assist) scored

‘It’s a boarder war. One thing about intensity is you have to match it. It was a wet, sloppy day, but you have to win on a day like today if you want to win a championship’ — Al Bertolone twice, once with the help of Sanchez, and assisted on another during the Eagles’ fourscore streak that put them up 4-3 at halftime. Mount Sinai, which turned the ball over 10 times, made most of its errors in the first half. “It’s a boarder war,” Bertolone said. “One thing about intensity is you have to match it. We started off great but we let them back into it and we had to try to get what we wanted to do going. We weren’t smart with the ball in the first half, but in the second half we were smarter.” The head coach said it was a good test as the team enters the Suffolk County Class C title game against No. 3 Westhampton May 31 at Hauppauge High School at 3 p.m. “It was a wet, sloppy day, but you have to win on a day like today if you want to win a championship,” Bertolone said. “Our program, our tradition has put us in position. We’re right there.”

Invest in building a better Suffolk Local action while waiting for legislation

Electrifying the LIRR in Suffolk will mean more connectivity and faster, more reliable service. And more aggressively, we can build a freight tunnel connecting Long Island and New Jersey. Finally, we must fully fund the recent proposal to connect the LIRR directly with New Jersey Transit and Amtrak. By providing easy access to the whole Northeast Corridor, this connection will drive business investment in Suffolk while reducing transportation costs, a major inhibitor to business growth here in Long Island. We need to rebuild and repair our crumbling roads and bridges with projects that put Americans to work at good-paying, union jobs. Suffolk County has waited too long for upgrades to our roads, bridges and tunnels. Think about the potholes disappearing, and that is just a start. Better infrastructure will make us more efficient and make it less expensive to do business, leading to more economic investment and good-paying, middleclass jobs in our communities. We must also upgrade an modernize septic and sewer systems. Nitrogen waste is a huge problem throughout the county that has resulted in dying fish, toxic algae blooms and closed beaches. There are existing programs to combat the nitrogen waste situation, but we must do more. If we don’t fix our waste treatment systems soon, Long Island’s waters will become completely polluted and we will all suffer. Prevention

and investments now will pay dividends in the long term. Harnessing the renewable energy revolution sweeping the country is critical. Suffolk County has high energy costs today, but we do have windy coasts and lots of sun. These natural assets give us the opportunity to invest in the fastest growing energy source — wind power, both onshore and offshore. By investing in wind, as well as solar energy, we will not only be investing in Suffolk manufacturing and construction jobs to build and install turbines, but also driving down residents’ energy prices, all while helping the environment. The more we reduce energy costs, the more sense it will make for manufacturing firms to operate in the county. Improving LIRR, rebuilding our roads and bridges, cleaning up our waste systems and investing in renewable energy will not only improve our quality of life and improve our economy, but also will provide well-paid union jobs to Suffolk County workers. These projects require federal, state and county, and often town, cooperation and funding. But working together, we can rebuild our infrastructure. This future, with infrastructure investment and economic growth, can be a reality. Together, we can actually make bold, progressive ideas to invest in our infrastructure and grow our economy.

Perry Gershon Candidate U.S. Rep. 1st District

Thank your veterans on Memorial Day As we approach Memorial Day weekend, it is important we join together to pay tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. These men and women — and surviving families — must be honored and remembered. That is why it is so important that we take time this weekend to show our appreciation by commemorating their lives and their service. To help families in our local community participate in the numerous Memorial Day events, my office has set up a Memorial Day page that contains a list of the events in our area. This special section can be accessed by visiting our website at www.flanagan. nysenate.gov and clicking on the Memorial Day link on the home page. Wherever you are or whatever you do over the upcoming

weekend, it is my hope that we all take a moment to say thank you to the men and women of our armed forces and to remember those who perished fighting for our freedoms. That could be as simple as saying thank you to a veteran in your life or in your community, or attending a community commemoration. Our military veterans and active duty personnel are the reason we enjoy the life we do as Americans and it is imperative that our nation never forget these true heroes. Every day, they protect and preserve our rights and freedoms and they should know how grateful we are for their service. Thank you very much and please have a safe Memorial Day weekend.

John Flanagan State Senator Senate Majority Leader

TBR NEWS MEDIA

While we wait for the federal government to do something about gun control, kids are dying in America’s schools. For children and school staff members to be filled with fear and anxiety every day thinking they may get killed is unacceptable. Fortunately, there are things that can be done on the local level, even in our homes, to make schools — places that should foster learning, not fear — safer in the short term. Fox News recently reported nearly 40 deaths and various injuries resulted from school shootings since the beginning of 2017 in 15 elementary and secondary schools. CNN, which includes universities in its reports, said 22 learning institutions have been the site of shootings in 2018 alone, accounting for more than 30 deaths. Hitting closer to home, Suffolk County Police Department Capt. Kevin Williams spoke at a May 8 Smithtown Town Board meeting and said since the Parkland, Florida, shooting Feb. 14, the 4th Precinct has received a threat against Smithtown-area schools approximately once a day. He said that trend holds true across Suffolk County. What do we do on the local level? We have covered a number of school board meetings where parents have been allowed to debate about what they feel are the best solutions to keep their children and staff members safe. While some of these board meetings have gone on for hours, due to resistance to ideas like armed guards and metal detectors, keeping our children safe is worth every hour spent at these meetings and every penny the district pays for new measures that will help keep kids out of harm’s way. We encourage parents to keep speaking up. As a result of responding to concerns, many school districts have added additional psychologists to their staffs, too, to allow for easier accessibility. New York State Legislature passed a package of bills in the wake of Parkland allotting more dollars to security and mental health services to districts that want them. Another example of parents and school administration working together to find solutions occurred at the Shoreham-Wading River’s March 6 board of education meeting. Superintendent Gerard Poole outlined measures the school was taking after the shooting in Parkland. Among the plans was installing a Raptor Visitor Management System in all buildings, a web-based monitoring software designed to track visitors and electronically check them against public databases. The same meeting also included a forum for students to express their concerns and give suggestions on how to better protect their schools. A web-based app called “report it,” which many Long Island school districts are using, was also introduced earlier this month to help encourage students to speak up when they see or hear things that trouble them or make them uncomfortable. School is not the only place where something can be done while we wait. If you own a gun, and keep it in your home, keep it locked up and keep the bullets secured in a separate location. Most of all, explain to your children and teens that a gun is not a toy. Too many news reports begin with a child getting a hold of a parent’s gun. If you are resistant to stricter gun control laws, we beg you to at least ensure you’ve taken all of the possible steps necessary to lock up your weapons. There’s the issue of bullying, too. Antonios Pagourtzis, the father of Santa Fe shooter Dimitrios Pagourtzis, claimed his son was bullied at the school. The best conversations about how to treat people can occur at home. Talk to your children about being kind to others and to speak up when they see someone being harassed. Most of all, set a good example. As journalists, we plan to do our part by continuing to report on the conversations going on at local schools, whether they are happening at a board meeting or during a student-organized walkout. When it comes to legislation, we have no choice but to wait — but we won’t idly sit by and neither should you.

Suffolk County families have seen tough economic times in recent decades, with the erosion of our middle class and the disappearance of good-paying jobs. The lack of industry, scarcity of high-quality jobs, and high cost of real estate force too many of our young people and families to move out of the county. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We can create a future where people want to move to Suffolk for its high quality of life, not away from it. As an entrepreneur and businessman with 30 years of experience building and growing businesses, I know that neither government nor private industry will solve these problems alone. We must forge private-public partnerships and make critical investments to redevelop our economy. Imagine a Suffolk County that’s economically revitalized with a modernized infrastructure. Improving the Long Island Rail Road, rebuilding our highways and bridges, modernizing our sewer and septic systems, and investing in renewable energy sources are key infrastructure investments we can make to drive economic opportunity in the county. The LIRR is vital to Suffolk County and it must be modernized and improved. We should invest in improving LIRR signal systems that will reduce the delays that plague commuters. We also need more tracks so that the North and South forks can have fuller service.

OPINION

Notes from a 2017 interview with the late Tom Wolfe

H

ow often do you get to talk to someone whose legend loomed large over your childhood? Last year, I had the privilege of interviewing author Tom Wolfe, who died last week at the age of 88. Wolfe wrote “The Right Stuff,” “The Bonfire of the Vanities,” and “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test,” among others. I spoke with Wolfe about astronaut Scott Kelly, who was so inspired by “The Right Stuff” that he directed a life he considered somewhat aimless toward By Daniel Dunaief becoming a fighter pilot and, eventually, an astronaut. My conversation was rewarding and memorable, so I thought I’d share my interview with the legendary author. DD: Kelly credits you with putting him on a path that led him to spend almost a year aboard the International Space Station. Is there a satisfaction that comes from that? TW: Nothing else I’ve written has

D. None of the above

had such a beautiful result. He told me he’d been floundering around trying to figure out what to do with his life. He hadn’t been doing well in school. Then he just got the idea of going into space and became an astronaut. DD: Did you know he took “The Right Stuff” with him? TW: He sent me from the space station a picture of the cover on his iPad. That was one of the greatest messages I ever got. DD: Do you think Kelly’s mission increased the excitement about space? TW: There’s been a general lack of a sense of heroism in much of the post-World War II era and there were people who responded to the space program in general in that fashion. DD: How does the excitement now compare to the early days of the space program? TW: John Glenn’s return created a lot of excitement. At that time, we seemed to be at war in space with the Russians. That was what kept the space program going. There was always this threat. It’s very hard to hit the Earth from space. You’ve got three speeds: the speed of what you fired the rocket with, then you’ve got the speed at the end of that opening shot and you’ve got the speed of hitting the

Earth, which is moving. DD: How do you think people will react to Kelly’s mission? TW: It remains to be seen whether it inspires young people the way the Mercury program did. DD: What drove the space program until that point? TW: Wernher van Braun [a German engineer who played a seminal role in advancing American rocket science] spoke in his last year. The point of the space program was not to beat the Russians. It was to prepare for the day when the sun burns out and we have to leave Earth and go somewhere else. It’s hard to imagine everybody shipping off to another heavenly body. DD: Getting back to Kelly, how difficult do you think Kelly’s mission was? TW: Scott Kelly’s adventures were a test of the human body and the psyche. Being that removed from anybody you could talk to and see must be a terrible stress. That’s what he and others in the space station are chosen for. DD: Do people like Kelly still need “the right stuff” to be astronauts? TW: It’s the same except anyone coming into the program is more confident that these things can be done. For Mercury astronauts, these

things were totally new. The odds against you, the odds of death, were very high. DD: What advice did you give to Kelly when he started writing his book? TW: Begin at the beginning. So many of the astronauts and other people who have memorable experiences will start with the adventure to get you interested. Then, the second chapter, suddenly you’re saying, “Harold Bumberry was born in 1973,” and it makes you take a deep breath [and say], ‘OK, here it comes.” Whereas starting at the beginning always works. DD: What do you think of the movies made about your books? TW: I think they’re terrible. Three of my books were made into movies and I disliked them all. The reason being they didn’t do it like I did. You can’t do a lot of things in a movie that you can in print. You’re better at presenting themes, better at dialogue. You can hear it, you can’t get inside a mind of a character the way you can in print. Movies don’t have time. DD: What impact did Scott Kelly’s being inspired by your book have on you? TW: It’s the best compliment I’ve ever gotten.
