Since the middle of March, we have had many activities and classes visiting the library. Among those working in the
library were Mr. Sevigny's French 4 and 5 classes continuing work on their
year's project and Ms. Evans AP Art History class looking at
major artists and their works. Miss Fellom's Intermediate ESL Classes
have also been to the library to work on their "states" project,
while members of Mr. Kelley's class were working on their DBQ's.
Ms. Collins' PA English class researching
materials for a psychoanalytic analysis paper on Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Mrs. Finazzo's AP English classes have also been using the library to get
information for their "major poet" project. Mrs.
Bodenstein's Business Ownership class has been to the library to
research selected companies and their major competitors.
During the same week, Mrs. Jackson's Intro to Occ class held
its "labor/management" negotiating session in the library.
Ms. McHugh sponsored a HOBE training seminar for selected students one
day. This training enables the students to work with younger
children on drug and alcohol awareness and prevention.
On May 7th, sponsored 12th grade Social Studies
classes, the Suffolk County Board of Elections will be bringing their
V.I.P. (Voter Information Program) to the high school
library. This program which includes an actual voting
booth will teach the seniors the importance of voting, how to vote,
how and when to register, and how to use absentee ballots.
Students, who are eligible, will have the opportunity to register and all
students will have the opportunity to use the voting booth to vote in a
simulated election.
