The Chamber gathered over 90 vendors for the Winter Wonderland Marketplace on the Mansion’s premises, both inside and out, during the afternoon’s spring- like weather. Vendors represented both services and products for Holiday shopping and more. The Chamber offered free wrapping for any gifts purchased and collected money that was donated to the Glen Cove High School Select Chorale for their planned trip. In addition, the Chamber offered free arts and craft activities for the children. The Mansion had a horse and carriage ride, a selection of refreshments and professional ice carving for viewing. The event was a huge success for both attendees and vendors and all agreed this should be an annual event. Chairperson Jacki Yonick (Glen Cove Youth Bureau) enlisted the help from her agency along with DECA, EOC, Girls and Boys Club, Rotary and others who volunteered to make this event run so smoothly. Many thanks to these students and to our sponsors, Astoria Bank, Rallye Lexus, Glen Floors and The Regency at Glen Cove for contributing to the holiday festivities. Glen Cove Chamber of Commerce is one of the oldest organizations in the City, established in 1920. Its mission is to enhance the health and profitability of our Member businesses.

  • Students, Sea Stars And
    Volume XXIV No. 34 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 4/23/15 75C Students, Sea Stars and Fun First-grade students from Gribbin School in Glen Cove received an up-close look at sea stars when representatives from Oyster Bay’s WaterFront Center visited their school. At the presentation, students were educated about how sea stars eat, see and move. They also learned about the absence of bones and blood in their bodies. The children listened carefully as Marine Educator Kayla Kraker read “Spiny Sea Star A Tale of Seeing Star” by Suzanne Tate and had an opportunity to touch and feel live sea stars and clams. First grade teacher Giselle Taylor said her students would use what they learned about sea stars to create an image on the computer app Doodle Buddy, which she plans to incorporate into an iMovie along with photos from the presentation. “A hands-on lesson like this creates a memory that lasts forever,” Taylor said. “In this school and in this district we try to create educational experiences that last a lifetime.” In addition, to touching and feeling the animals, students created a sea star from construction paper and designed it using crayons, glue and sand. WaterFront marine educator Kayla Kraker showed students Ashley Amaya, Edwin Delgado and Saoirse Fiedor (r) a sea star during her visit. Glenwood Landing First Graders Learn Lessons on “School Long Ago” First graders got a treat when their a slate and a slate pencil.

  • New York State Principals New York State's High Schools, Middle Schools and Elementary Schools an Open Letter of Concern Regar
    New York State Principals New York State’s High Schools, Middle Schools and Elementary Schools An Open Letter of Concern Regarding New York State’s APPR Legislation for the Evaluation of Teachers and Principals www.newyorkprincipals.org Over the past year, New York State has implemented dramatic changes to its schools. As building principals, we recognize that change is an essential component of school improvement. We continually examine best practices and pursue the most promising research-based school improvement strategies. We are very concerned, however, that at the state level change is being imposed in a rapid manner and without high-quality evidentiary support. Our students, teachers and communities deserve better. They deserve thoughtful reforms that will improve teaching and learning for all students. It is in this spirit that we write this letter, which sets forth our concerns and offers a path forward. We believe that it is our ethical obligation as principals to express our deep concerns about the recently implemented Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) regulations. These regulations are seriously flawed, and our schools and students will bear the brunt of their poor design. Below we explain why we are opposed to APPR as it is presently structured. Background In May 2010, the New York State Legislature—in an effort to secure federal Race to the Top funds— approved an amendment to Educational Law 3012-c regarding the Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) of teachers and principals. The new law states that beginning September 2011, all teachers and principals will receive a number from 0-100 to rate their performance.
