‘Deck The Poles’ with the Farmingville Chamber of Commerce

A group of students thumbnail252762

On Dec. 3, the Work Based Learning Club from High School East, led by Business teacher William Ward, joined forces with the Farmingville Chamber of Commerce to spread holiday cheer. Rain did not dampen spirits, as families arrived to pick up items to decorate lamp posts along Horseblock/Portion Road.

The group set up base at Triangle Park in Farmingville where they tested lights, unfurled garland, tightened bows and handed out zip ties. Families in the community then decorated their own lamp post, which can be seen by all from now through the holidays!

Thanks to the Farmingville Chamber of Commerce for the free hot chocolate and the experience to make a difference in the community!

A group of students thumbnail252578

Chris Herren, a former professional basketball player who played in the NBA and overseas, visited Sachem High School East on Nov. 28 for a powerful presentation about addiction and substance use prevention. Sophomores gathered in the building’s auditorium where they first watched a video about Herren’s life, journey to the NBA and struggles with drug abuse.

Herren then came out to speak with students, noting the importance of looking at addiction with a different lens, changing the focus from the last day to the first day. He emphasized the importance of positive self-esteem and self-worth. Students walked away from the presentation feeling empowered to make positive life choices and to start conversations around wellness.

Acceptance into the NYSCAME All-County Ensembles is a high honor obtained only by the most talented and dedicated music students from across all of Suffolk County, which is perhaps the most competitive county in New York state when it comes to musical performance. As it is a prestigious festival, highly sought-after conductors from across the nation are selected to lead each ensemble. It is quite an honor for these students to work with such seasoned professionals.

The NYSCAME All-County Festival concert took place on Nov. 17 at Northport High School. The students had just three rehearsals during a week and a half to prepare for the event. The concert was a tremendous success due to the hard work of the students, their teachers, and their conductors. Sachem’s 21 participants are truly among the top student musicians in New York State.

Congratulations to these talented musicians on this impressive achievement!
