Leaving a (Paw) Print I recently received an e-mail for an event listing from a teacher at my old high school, which sparked a conversation about how many years it’s been since I roamed those very hallways myself {approaching 18, nearly half of my lifetime} and how it might be nice to stop by to say hello to the relatively few teachers who remain there after all this time. Which got me to thinking… there was a time when my fellow alumni and I couldn’t wait to “visit” after we graduated, popping in every few months or so to see what was new and exciting in the world of Lindy High. As the years passed, college came and went, and we found ourselves employed in our various fields of study, these encounters became few and far between. We no longer related to those teenagers who breezed by on their way to class, nor did we

see high school as the center of the only universe we had ever inhabited. We now had the world before us, one that included days not marked by a bell schedule, job descriptions not dictated by a syllabus. Sure, there was the occasional visit to the old college campus now; perhaps a special “guest” speaking engagement to a group of soon-to-be grads about to embark on their own adventures into the great world of career exploration. But that was where the academic connection ceased. Fast forward nearly two decades past these formative years, and the nostalgia for simpler times has returned. Having the opportunity to reconnect with those friends and former classmates has taken on added significance as the years have passed. Several have left us far too soon; others’ lives have taken

them to the far reaches of the country, making the advent of social media a welcome - and perhaps the only - connection. But among the hundreds that we graduated with, there are also the dozens who still reside right here on Long Island, instantly reachable and available to reminisce at any time. It’s a comforting thought, that ability to pick up where you left off at a given point, to chat about old times and new pursuits, and to realize - with rare exception - that we are all dealing with the same daily struggle to find that sense of fulfillment that was promised to us all those years ago. Perhaps a visit to the old high school stomping grounds is in order; a “refresher course,” if you will, courtesy of the very place where it all began. As they like to say in Lindy… once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog…

Where Truth Lies By: John McGowan

Amidst fake news and alternative facts I wonder where truth abides So much information and chatter forthcoming from both sides It seems to me it lies beneath the spinning that I hear So unlike a setting sun so simple and so clear Somehow I hope this fog will lift And we’ll witness what is real Until that time let’s stay the course Awaiting what truth will reveal.

Left to Right By: Gail Apple Gardner

Camaraderie is non-existent on our planet, and distrust and failure are in view. I think we’ve lost our way in our values; we don’t love each other like we used to do. Left to right now has a different angle; nothing is straight anymore, and we’re caught in the middle of what is and what was, and the way our children are now being taught. We can’t fly with just one single wing; we need the left and right to make it safe and sound. Without both wings holding together, I’m afraid we’ll never leave the ground. Blindness, dark and dreary days now; rosy glasses won’t help us see the light. If we don’t stop this madness now, then it will be too late to set things right. Left to right once seemed so easy; up and down and circles, freaking out. God, we need some help here, we forgot what life is all about.

February Charity of the Month:

HOPE CHILDREN’S FUND

“I believe all things happen for a reason” Kevin Mann, Vice President of Hope Children’s Fund, said to me as we sat down to talk more in-depth about this international non-profit. It was not by coincidence that he and his wife crossed paths with Lawrence Hohler, retired Smithtown East HS teacher, and Joseph Kirima, primary school teacher in Kenya, to learn about what those two educators came together in hopes to form: a Kenyan orphanage. Hope Children’s Fund operates with the motto “Education Is Key” and for children in Kenya, this couldn’t be more true. Without an education and the ability to speak English, these children often lack the opportunity to rise above fetching water and cutting wood. Mann explained, “The government in Kenya doesn’t have the resources to take care of the children in their country like the United States government does.” It is not shocking to see a very young child in Kenya hopelessly wandering the streets without family, hungry and just trying to survive. Hope Children’s Fund does something about this problem. In 2001, Hope Children’s Fund registered as a nonprofit and raised $40,000 through donations – precisely enough money to begin construction on an orphanage that stands high up on a hill in Meru, Kenya. By 2005, the orphanage opened and began transforming lives for children, many of whom had lost their parents in the AIDS epidemic. This orphanage, Jerusha Mwiraria Hope Children’s Fund Home, has a dining hall and a dormitory for boys and girls. It provides the children with shelter, steady meals and the opportunity to attend school. The children are shown family values and given chores to complete in order for them to gain life skills. They currently house 100 children and have had many success stories. One of their favorites is of a young lady named Betty Gakii who entered their orphanage when she was little, did well and became a teacher, later got married and had children of her own, and now is the Administrative Assistant at this same orphanage! Kevin feels that he and his wife have received and learned much more from the orphans than they’ve given and taught them. With that being said, if you would like to help change the lives of orphans in Kenya, you can!

There are 22 orphans who still need to be sponsored through Hope Children’s Fund’s sponsorship program - $1/day or $365/year will help send these children to school so they have a better chance to succeed. You can visit their website at www.HopeChildrensFund.org or contact Kevin Mann at KevinMannMail@gmail. com to learn more and view photos of these children. Upon sponsoring a child, you will receive a photo and bio of them, and you can write letters/send e-mails directly to the child to provide them with hopeful messages to brighten their days. Kevin and his wife often travel to Meru to visit the orphanage and welcome sponsors to travel along to meet firsthand the child they sponsor. Another way you can become involved is by hosting a craft fair to sell Kenyan crafts made by the Meru Women’s Collective. You will be provided with the goods, and all the profits generated will go back to the children at the orphanage. Contact Kevin Mann for more information. Lastly, Hope Children’s Fund will host their first gala at East Wind in Wading River on February 18th. Tickets are $200, and all are welcome to attend to support this charity and learn more about what they do! Contact Kevin Mann to purchase your tickets now and be a part of something that truly matters.

Fifth-grade students in Colleen Malone’s and Joanna Zalewski’s classes at Connetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School recently welcomed Jeremy Dale, an impressive and inspirational young man, to talk to the students and staff members about the best-selling novel, “Wonder,” and his own life living with a craniofacial deformity. “Wonder,” which was recently adapted into a movie, tells the story of a boy with a severe facial

deformity, who faces challenges as he begins to attend regular school as a fifth-grader. “Like the main character in the book, Jeremy was born with facial differences,” said Mrs. Malone. “He and his mom shared his experiences about his many surgeries along with other details about his life. The students were particularly excited to hear that Jeremy had been invited to be on the set during the filming of ‘Wonder,’ and that he had the opportunity to meet

many of the actors at the premier screening in Los Angeles.” Before concluding his visit, Jeremy also spent time answering students’ questions about his life, the book “Wonder,” and his thoughts on the movie. At the end of the visit, Jeremy presented the students with Wonderthemed bookmarks. The students came away from this experience impressed by Jeremy’s resilience, enthusiasm and positive attitude.

Mural Unveiled The Blue Point Elementary School community recently completed a beautiful mural featuring the Justice League Superheroes and inspirational words in honor of former Blue Point Elementary School student William Schultz, who lost his brave fight with cancer last year. William is remembered by the community as an amazing little boy who always displayed great character in the face of

adversity, along with being a true superhero and role model for all. The district would like to thank first-grade teacher Erica DePaoli for envisioning the mural, Blue Point parent Billy Tucci for drawing the outline, teacher Erica Mailand for adding color to the mural, along with various staff members for assisting with painting and the custodial staff who opened up the building for the volunteers.

In addition to the creation of William’s mural, Blue Point Elementary will be adding a special award to their Character Education Program. At the end of each year, one student from every class will be presented with the “William Schultz SUPER Character Award,” to be given to the student who displays exceptional character throughout the entire school year.

For a third time within the last eight years, Sayville School District has been placed on the College Board’s Annual AP® District Honor Roll for Significant Gains in Student Access and Success o 447 School Districts Across the U.S. and Canada Are Honored This year, Sayville Public Schools is one of four hundred forty-seven school districts in the U.S. and Canada being honored by the College Board with placement on the 8th Annual AP® District Honor Roll. To be included on the 8th Annual Honor Roll, Sayville had to, since 2015, increase the number of students participating in Advanced Placement while also increasing or maintaining the percentage of students

unique interests to hone their college-ready skills. This new AP Capstone program is both a Seminar and Research course, and students enrolled in this program are given the flexibility to choose a real-world thesis topic that strongly appeals to them on an individualized level. They are then required to design, plan, and conduct a year-long mentored, research-based investigation and apply research methods and practices to address their chosen topics. They are also required to write a college-level research paper, as well as to present and orally defend their research findings and methodology. Students who earn scores of 3 or higher in AP Seminar and AP Research will receive

Equity & Opportunity

an AP® exam - thereby demonstrating measured mastery of college-level work - can typically earn college credit and/or placement into advanced college courses. Giving Sayville students “equity and opportunity” for a quality education is the primary goal at Sayville High School. Participating in the nationally recognized AP program is one of several opportunities available at the High School to enhance student achievement in a competitive environment. Today, Sayville High School continues to see participation growth in AP enrollments due to its expanded AP course offerings, as well as with the AP Capstone Program (launched in 2016) that is encouraging students with

the AP Seminar and Research Certificate™. Those students who earn scores of 3 or higher in AP Seminar and AP Research and on four additional AP Exams will receive the AP Capstone Diploma. Sayville High School Principal Ron Hoffer gives perspective on how the AP programs work within the general curriculum. “Our District continues to strive to provide access to college and career-readiness learning opportunities for every student. The skill set our students will refine as a result of the challenge and rigor these college-level learning opportunities present will transcend many of their future learning endeavors.” By offering a wider variety of AP courses, Sayville High School

has increased student involvement. With both the AP course work as well as the AP Capstone Program, Sayville students have even more opportunities to choose the programs that best suit their interests and abilities while preparing them to build criticalthinking skills, confidence, and the essential timemanagement and study skills needed for college success. Earning a place on the AP Honor Role for a third time (previously in 2011 and then again in 2012) is a testament both to Sayville School District’s commitment to academic excellence and to the dedication of our High School students and staff, and our supportive community.

earning AP Exam scores of 3 or higher. Reaching these goals shows that Sayville is successfully identifying motivated, academically prepared students who are ready for AP. Advanced Placement is a program in the United States and Canada created and administered by the College Board which offers - within a high-school setting - standardized college-level curricula and examinations to high school students aspiring to attend college. AP courses and exams are a nationally recognized standard for many colleges and universities considering candidates for admission and are used to measure and gauge student achievement.

The Little Theatre set was indeed minimalist with chairs, a blackboard, and two ladders, surrounded by a raised audience platform, but the Sayville High School Players enriched the imaginations of the audience with their passionate performances in Thornton Wilder’s Our Town. The three-act play introduces the Grover’s Corners residents in

“Daily Life,” follows them through the joys of “Love and Marriage,” and finally transports them in “Death” to an omniscient perspective, where they look down from the expanded view of eternity with transcendent peace. In Our Town, Wilder’s humanistic theme to appreciate the ordinary - the here and now - is perhaps a simple idea, but the depth of understanding

to play the roles convincingly and with maturity is not typical for high school students. However, the Sayville Players accomplished this feat with extraordinary maturity. High School Drama Director Doug Shaw had high praise for the abilities the students brought to the production. “They were awesome,” he said.

Performing ensembles included the James Wilson Young Middle School jazz band under the direction of Matthew Hurst, the Bayport-Blue Point High School vocal jazz choir directed by Jean Goloski and the Bayport-Blue Point High School jazz band led by Michael Sarling. There was a little something for everyone

in the audience to enjoy, as the students performed various styles of music including the blues, swing, Latin and pop. The creativity flowed throughout the evening as many students performed solos with clarity and confidence. “Jazz night is always a concert that people circle on their calendar,” said James Wilson Young Middle School Principal Robert Haas. “The students and staff put a great deal of time and effort outside of the school day to prepare for this concert, and they

never disappoint. It was a great show.” On Saturday, Feb. 3, both the middle and high school jazz bands will represent the school district at the SCMEA Day of Jazz Festival. The students were chosen based on teacher recommendations, and will be given the opportunity to perform for judges who will critique their performances and offer constructive criticism. These students represent the top middle and high school student-musicians from across Suffolk County.

Dining on Good Books Each table offered a three-minute “taste,” or sampling, of a book of the student’s choice. After reading their selected work, the students logged a brief menu summary including what the author did to hook the reader and if the student would recommend this particular piece of literature to others.

Students then discussed their selection with the rest of the “customers” at their genre table. Before returning to their classroom, the readers picked up a bookmark, making note of their top three favorite choices throughout selection of books.

Everyone loves to grill. That’s why John Akers, welding teacher at Edward J. Milliken Technical Center, had his students build personalsized, charcoal grills for their midterm project. This exercise incorporated all the skills students learned during the year up until this point. The welding program is part of the Eastern Long Island Academy of Applied Technology, the Career and Technical Education Program of Eastern Suffolk BOCES. To execute this multifaceted project, students had to demonstrate mastery of

various techniques, which included the following: · Reading and following a detailed schematic of the grill that featured drawings from three different angles – top, front, and one side. · Calculating the total dimensions given limited information to ensure math skills are on par. · Utilizing proper cutting, bending, and welding proficiency when fabricating steel of varying thicknesses, and different materials if using them for accent pieces. Each student’s steel grill box and lid were essentially identical (12” wide, 8” deep, 10” high), but they had creative license on

how to design the legs, the handle, and if they wanted to add a vent or additional accents. Students had approximately four weeks to complete the assignment. The project was finalized one recent afternoon when the class fired up their grills to roast hotdogs and hamburgers. “Making something useful, yet complex, which everyone can take home and share with their families was the highlight of the semester,” said Akers. “This type of project-based learning provides necessary handson lessons and keeps enthusiasm levels high.”

Talking Safety Kindergarten students talked about safety at Grundy Avenue Elementary School in the Sachem Central School District during a recent injury prevention program provided by the Trauma Center at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital. Through the workshop, each kindergarten class was visited by two Stony Brook nurses, Kristi Ladowski and Christine Pfundstein, who shared important tips to stay safe and avoid

injury. Students learned about the importance of correctly wearing a seatbelt when riding in a car and a helmet when riding a bicycle. Using two eggs, one with a protective case around it representing a helmet and one without, the students saw how easily the unprotected egg cracked and the protected egg remained safe. Additionally, each class participated in a teddy bear clinic where students suited up as a

doctor and performed patient care on one of their own stuffed animals. Dressed in protective hair nets, face masks and rubber gloves, students began by assessing the condition of their patient, identifying injuries and making recommendations on how to stay safe next time. Completing the teddy bear clinic, the student-caregivers applied bandages and splints to their injured fluffy friends.

Floating to Conclusions Ronkonkoma Middle School eighth-grade students enrolled in Anthony Carbonaro and Alma Campanelli’s math, science and technology courses tested their creativity and engineering skills during a recent regatta boat race on January 25th at

Connetquot High School. As part of a lesson on buoyancy, the young engineers spent weeks using scientific calculations to design and construct boats out of cardboard and duct tape in hopes of crossing the high school pool. Although some students chose to

commandeer their boats in an individual fashion, they all worked in teams when creating their boats in class. Despite the fact that not every boat was able to stay afloat during the race, the students enjoyed cheering one another to see which boat would make it across.

who will enter training to prepare them to step in the ring at the 15th Main Event. Boxing experience is not required. What is required is a commitment to fundraising, “character,” a willingness to train and be ready to meet a business colleague toeto-toe in the ring in front of a thousand fans. This is a rare opportunity for individuals to make a personal commitment of time, talent and to truly “give back.” Hundreds of men, women and children here on Long Island dealing with life’s struggles will be the benefactors. Since 2003, LIFFC has distributed funds each year to Long Island charities including: Long Island Community Chest, The Genesis School, National Foundation for Human Potential (FREE) and other local charities. “Men and women from the Long Island business community who want to ‘give back’ to the community in a meaningful way will want to consider volunteering to be a charity boxer.

Every year since Fight for Charity was founded we have been fortunate to have the boxers, sponsors and volunteers that have contributed to the overall success of the mission to support local charities,” said Fight for Charity President, Jeff Cohen. “The fans are never disappointed when they see these men and women perform in the ring like true champions for charity. Now is the time for this year’s volunteers to step forward and start prepping for November’s Main Event.” If you have roots in the Long Island business community, relish both physical and mental challenges and possess a spirited drive to “give back” and improve the lives of fellow Long Islanders, you will want to visit www. lifightforcharity.org to learn more about how to participate in Fight for Charity. To request an application to become a volunteer boxer email info@ lifightforcharity.org or call 877.240.7821.

(NAPSI)—Many older Americans have discovered that sharing their accumulated wisdom with others who need help can be a big win all around. Here’s a look at two ways you can stretch your mind and show your heart: Experience Corps AARP Foundation Experience Corps unites teachers, schools and older adults to improve children’s academic and social outcomes. This benefits the children, the schools and the volunteers. The program has been proven to help children

who aren’t reading at grade level become better readers by the end of third grade. Last school year, 76 percent of students who were below grade level at the beginning of the year raised their reading and literacy performance by one or more proficiency levels with the help of Experience Corps volunteers. The goal is to improve children’s literacy, strengthen communities, develop cultures of inspiration in schools and support hardworking teachers. It’s already

changed the lives of thousands of children in schools across America. Volunteers should be age 50 or older; have at least a high school diploma or GED; pass a criminal background check; pass a basic literacy screening; attend 25 hours of annual training; and have five to 15 hours a week to offer during the school year. Tax-Aide AARP Foundation also runs Tax-Aide, the nation’s largest free tax assistance and preparation service, giving special attention to those 50 and older. It offers

free tax-filing help to those who need it most. You do not need to be a member of AARP or even a retiree to use this free service. IRS tax-certified volunteer preparers in libraries, malls, banks, community centers and senior centers answer questions and prepare tax returns. In addition to earned and retirement income reporting, they can also help with investment

income (interest, dividends, and capital gains for Schedule D), Schedule C for individuals with small businesses that have less than $25,000 in annual expenses, and various health care, education, child and earned income credits. Compassionate and friendly individuals can volunteer for the upcoming tax season. Volunteers receive training

Older People Improve Life For Others And Themselves and continued support in a welcoming environment. Learn More For facts about Tax-Aide, including requirements for volunteers, go to www. aarp.org/money/taxes/ info-2006/volunteer_ aarp_tax_aide.html.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

Allergy And Dirty Ducts (NAPSI)—Allergies are nothing to sneeze at but you can make your home more comfortable for people who have allergies and improve your indoor air quality—by cleaning in an often forgotten place. Indoor air quality can be a big concern for many

families. After all, in a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust— including dangerous chemicals and other pollutants—is created annually through everyday living. These contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and recirculated

as much as seven times a day. Over time, this leads to built-up contaminants in the ductwork. Since your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home, you want to keep it clear.
