    • Celebrating Italian Heritage
      Sat, Oct 20, 2018, 01:07 PM
      by Eastchester District Website Administrator.  

      AwardsA sense of history and pride filled the Eastchester High School auditorium Tuesday night as students and educators from Westchester County celebrated Italian Heritage and Culture month.

      Eastchester Middle School students Melina Caviris and Samantha Poli, along with Eastchester High School students Sofia Mottura, Isabella Rizzo, and Michael Romano and more than 60 students throughout Westchester were honored for their excellence in their study of Italian heritage and culture.

      SpeechScholarships were awarded by John DeCicco Sr. and Sons, and Carmine International Hair Salon.

      Students sang both the American and Italian National Anthems and Jefferson Elementary School students performed traditional Italian songs.

      This year’s theme was ‘A Salute to Italian Women in America’. Professor Carlo Sclafani, Co-President of the Westchester Coalition of Italian American Organizations, reflected on the Italian-American experience.

       “Despite obstacles and challenges, Italian American women preserved family values, tradition and still had so much success in every field of endeavor.”

      Special guests included New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli who said, “No county does Italian Heritage like Westchester.”  He also encouraged the young women in the audience to take advantage of all the world has to offer today and urged the young men to continue in their ancestors’ footsteps.

      Westchester County Executive George Latimer recalled his Italian roots as he presented a proclamation to the Coalition.

      Many thanks to Judge Francis Nicolai, who presented awards to the students, Vincent Zuccarelli, Co-President of Italian American Organizations, Mario Cermele, President of the Antonio Meucci Lodge #213, OSIA, Master of Ceremonies, Mara Persampieri and Lucrezia Lindia, the Chairperson of the Eastchester High School Foreign Language Department and National President of the National Italian Honor Society.

    • Planning Ahead

      Jennifer Biancardi and her daughter Daniela traveled from table to table at the Eastchester College Fair looking for the right fit.

      “I want to be a physical education teacher and play basketball,” said Daniela who is an Eastchester High School junior. “This is very informative, and I know what schools to consider and research.”

      Her mom has her hands full; her son Domenic is a senior in Eastchester. “It is stressful, but attending the College Fair allows us to hear from the schools and find out their size, what they expect and about scholarships.”

      Representatives from more than 100 colleges, universities and the military provided information about their programs Monday night in the Eastchester High School Gym. Hundreds of families from Eastchester and Pelham participated.

      “Students and parents see a variety of schools in one place. They have the opportunity to learn so much and even if they do not apply to a particular college, meeting the counselors and speaking with them puts them on the path to another college and teaches them about the process,” noted Guidance Chairperson Heather Reilly.

      SUNY Potsdam Advisor Mike Lahendro visits more than 200 high schools a year. “The students here are well prepared and asking questions,” observed Lahendro. “The counselors have done a good job.”

      Students will now begin or continue their college tours as they explore their options.

      Next year Pelham High School will host the College Fair and next week the Eastchester Guidance Department will host a financial aid night at 7pm at EHS.

    • Staying Curious
      Tue, Oct 16, 2018, 09:25 PM

      Jan ReynoldsClimbing mountains in China, flying a hot air balloon over Mt. Everest, traveling alone through the Himalayas and Sahara Desert.

      Jan Reynolds has done it all and today the former US Biathlon Team member, photographer and author shared her love for adventure and the world with sixth-graders from Eastchester Middle School.

      Jan Reynolds and Nancy Brown"Stay curious.  I think that is what broadens people's awareness. My theme is always explore," said Reynolds after presenting a video of her travels and experiences to the students.

      Reynolds, who has authored nearly twenty books and photographed some of nature's wonders, doesn't expect all of Eastchester's children to climb Mt. Everest but she had some sound advice, "Sometimes it is uncomfortable to put yourself in the adventure zone but it might be going into a different neighborhood, trying a new food or learning a new language."

      Growing up on a dairy farm in Vermont provided Reynolds with the perfect opportunity to roam and explore. She trained with a national ski team in high school and after graduating from the University in Vermont, she joined the U.S Biathlon team.

      Jan Reynolds with studentsThe list of her accomplishments seems never ending: three-time Mountain Man triathlon champion, the only female member of the expedition to circumnavigate Mt. Everest, setting a world record when Reynolds climbed up and skied down a 25,000' mountain in China.

      After an injury Reynolds decided, "Meeting people was more exciting than breaking records."

      She has traveled the world learning about the cultures of indigenous people. "We might look different but we are much more alike that different," commented Reynolds.

      Eastchester School librarians coordinated Reynold's visit that was funded by the Eastchester School Foundation.

      The students were taken aback when they learned that Reynolds had eaten snakes but sixth-grader Chase Palumbo is awe struck. "I never thought I would meet anyone who had done these things. Now I want to go to these places and see them for myself."

      Alexandria D'Ambrosio already read one of Reynolds books and can't wait to devour more. "I think it was amazing to hear about the different cultures and that people share different traditions."

    • Caring For Others

      Two cards

      “I know that you are stronger than me and you should have more stamina every day. Good Luck.” Samia Washwell wrote these words of encouragement to a sick child at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Instead of playing during recess on Thursday, the fifth-grader at Anne Hutchinson and many of her classmates made these “Caring Cards.”

      Students drew hearts and other pictures with markers on construction paper and the handmade messages will be delivered to patients.

      Working on their cards“When these kids are sick in the hospital this helps cure them,” said Melina Kokkalas. “I know they are going through a tough time and making these cards also makes me feel good too.”

      The students are members of the school’s student council moderated by Felicia Maldari and Bobbi Iacovelli. For several years now the school has partnered with the Loukoumi Make A Difference Foundation as a way for students to give back to their community and “Caring Cards” is one of their activities.

      Card that cares“The children are really dedicated. Many of them are real leaders and I am so proud of them,” commented Maldari as the students collected their markers and handed in their cards at the end of recess.

      Students are also accepting $1 donations for the hospital as part of this project.

      Sahil Baghari hopes his card will brighten someone’s day. “I really feel bad for them because they cannot come out for months or years. I am making a card so they feel better.”

    • Soaring into the Future
      Thu, Oct 11, 2018, 08:43 PM

      Cutting the ribbonAfter years of anticipation and growing enrollment, Eastchester School officials celebrated the expansion of the high school Tuesday with a Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening Ceremony.

      Superintendent of Schools Dr. Walter Moran, School Board President Mary Messner-Martin, and High School Principal Dr. Jeffrey Capuano ushered in a new era.

      "I am so proud of our community and I am so happy for our students," said Dr. Moran, "that they finally have a facility commensurate with the level of achievement and learning that they deserve. To see that happen, is one of the best feelings I have ever had here."

      DedicationMs. Messner-Martin described her impressions walking through the new cafeteria. "It is light filled and joy filled. I would like to thank the community for all the support you provided. The project will keep on giving for years to come."

      Voters approved an almost $27-million-dollar bond to expand the high school building in October of 2015 and construction work began in June of 2017.

      The three-story addition includes eight new classrooms, four small group instruction rooms, three biology labs, three chemistry labs, and a state-of-the art cafeteria with traditional and high top seating. Adjacent to the cafeteria are three newly designed earth science labs and the new student commons, housing a study center and digital lab. The Guidance Department has been relocated for better student access adjacent to the student commons.

      Giving speechDr. Capuano recalls his first week as principal when "temporary" walls were put up in the old gym to transform it into classrooms. Fifteen years later, the walls are about to come down and the old gym will soon be utilized for its intended purpose.

      "What we do here is one step short of sacred," said Dr. Capuano," and the building needs to reflect the importance of the education. Now it does."

      Eastchester Government Organization President Miranda Deleon and Vice President Aaron Asiedu-Wiafe joined school leaders and cut the ribbon. "The school felt really old. The new wing is modern and it puts you in a better environment. I used to go to the library for lunch but now I come here. There's room for everyone," said Asieud-Wiafe.

      Crowd of viewers"I was in awe when I first walked in," said DeLeon. "This really transforms the learning environment because so many teachers had to share classrooms with one another. Ceiling tiles were literally falling as teachers were teaching."

      Major improvements were also made to the high school auditorium including new seating, carpeting, lighting and sound systems, painting and the replacement of the stage floor.

      The project also created energy efficiencies in the building with a new roof for the "new" gym constructed in 1984 and new boilers, heating and lighting.

      Architects from KG&D drew up the plans for the new addition. Contractors included: Piazza, Inc., L J Coppola, All Bright Electric, Bertussi/Pearl River, Tri-state Contract Sales.

      ViewersWe would also like to recognize Eastchester Town Supervisor Anthony Colavita, Attorneys: Keane & Beane and Construction contractors Brendan Ahern, Enda McIntyre and Pat Murtagh and our facilities team for your support.
