“…Viviano’s enormous presence captures hearts and minds in one spellbinding moment after another…”

“… a clarion and richly-colored voice with a mellow, saxophone-like timbre...”

“He’s a guy whom you suspect doesn’t take himself too seriously… with a smooth delivery and buckets of charm that created instant rapport with the crowd…”

“ …the format requires considerable versatility… Sal Viviano is exceptional in this regard; he’s a charming comic presence throughout . . . “

“With a rich romantic fervor, Sal Viviano possesses a beguiling subtlety, and an almost serene dignity that could be his trademark . . .”

“Throughout the evening, Viviano skillfully demonstrated that the STANDARDS are sublimely within his wheelhouse…"

In one hit song after another, Sal Viviano pays tribute to the legendary style and romantic musical gifts that “Ol’ Blue Eyes” gave to us all.

Garment bags can protect larger decorations, such as wreaths, artificial trees, or signs. If you have a large number of mechanical, illuminated, or inflatable lawn ornaments, consider investing in a small shed where these items can be safely kept. Wrap the extension cords and any bracing stakes or strings used with the decorations so it’s easy to find. 6. Utilize pieces of cardboard as well as toilet paper or paper towel tubes to keep lights and wires tidy. Tuck cords into the toilet paper tubes, and

inside larger decor items. Decorative baskets or wrapped boxes brought out for Christmas or Chanukah are ideal places to keep smaller tchotchkes like ceramics, dreidels, candlestick holders, or mantel hooks. Delicate items can be tucked into Christmas stockings or wrapped and stored in a fluffy tree skirt. Egg cartons can be used to keep small items safe as well. 3. Label everything, so you will not need to dig through boxes or bins to know what is inside. This might be a good year to ask for a label maker for the holidays! 4. Use overhead or wall storage for holiday decor. Overhead spaces in the garage or basement walls can

West Islip Receives NYSSBA Champion Of Change Honor The West Islip Union Free School District has been named a recipient of the New York State School Boards Association’s prestigious Champion of Change Recognition. The honor highlights exceptional school district and BOCES programs making positive, meaningful impacts on students, schools and communities across New York State. The Champion of Change Recognition is determined through observations by the NYSSBA award committee, along with input from association members. Potential recipients are identified based on innovative practices and

impactful initiatives, and the committee then votes to recognize the most outstanding programs statewide. The district was honored for its U.S. Navy Manufacturing Partnership, an innovative initiative that provides students with hands-on, career-connected learning experiences while strengthening pathways to high-demand careers in manufacturing, engineering and technology. The partnership connects classroom instruction with realworld applications, helping students build technical skills, problem-solving abilities and career readiness.

West Islip Superintendent of Schools Dr. Paul Romanelli praised the recognition and the collaborative efforts behind the program. “Being named a NYSSBA Champion of Change is a tremendous honor for our district,” he said. “Our U.S. Navy partnership reflects our commitment to preparing students for the future through meaningful, real-world learning experiences. This recognition affirms the hard work of our educators, students and community partners, and highlights the power of collaboration in creating opportunities that truly change lives.”
