LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME With twenty-one athletes inducted in 2018, a total of 564 coaches and athletes have now been recognized for their distinctive contributions that have provided leadership in the various athletic programs at Lincoln High School. This is a very elite group, comprising only about five percent of the total number of letter-winners at Lincoln High. An enduring competitive spirit through more than a century of athletic participation has led to success on the playing field, of which Lincoln High School graduates proudly boast. This has carried on through the good as well as the lean years and is so enthusiastic that its exuberance sometimes is said to border on arrogance. To recognize and permanently record some of the exceptional achievements of Red and Black athletes, the Lincoln High School Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 1983. It is estimated that over 11,000 letters have been issued to students who have competed in athletics throughout these 127 years.

  • Elementary Students Learning Mandarin
    Volume XXIV No. 34 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 4/30/15 75C Elementary Students Learning Mandarin Elementary students across the North Shore School District are learning Mandarin. As part of North Shore’s World Language Program initiated in 2012-13, students begin in kindergarten under the direction of their teachers Xian Xian Cascella and Wei Huang. Students in grades K-2 have the opportunity to take Mandarin exclusively, two times out of a six day cycle. In third grade, they get a choice of either Mandarin or Spanish which they will continue with until the sixth grade. If you are fortunate to sit in on a Mandarin class at any of our elementary schools, you will be amazed at how much our children are learning! Not only are they able to understand their teacher speaking mainly in Mandarin, but they are learning how to write the characters and speak the language using the proper intonations and sounds. Through various teaching techniques utilizing songs, visual aids (e.g., story books, colorful balloons, pictures, etc.,), and technology including the SmartBoard, iPods, or iPads, our youngest students are fully engaged and learning Mandarin quicker than they would have possibly been able Pictured are Sea Cliff School students learning Mandarin under the direction of their teacher Xian Xian Cascella. continued on page 2 Article and photos by Shelly Newman Sewer Line Update from Mayor Bruce Kennedy The installation of the Sea Cliff our business district, the Village will be minor business disruptions as my fellow complete.

  • Watchung Hills Regional High School District Newsletter
    Watchung Hills Regional High School District Newsletter July 2018 From the desk of the Superintendent As we celebrate another outstanding year of accomplishments by our Watchung Hills Regional High School students and staff members, our long awaited summer recess is once again upon us. I was honored to be able to articulate my appreciation and congratulations to the of the Class of 2018 during their commencement ceremony. I would now like to take a moment and welcome the incoming Class of 2022 to our world class learning community. These words may sound familiar to our upperclassmen as I find them important enough to revisit each summer with the incoming freshmen as they begin to navigate the next four years at Watchung Hills. I have learned from my years as an educator that two key components result in success: 1. Kids being involved in their school. 2. Parents being involved in their kids’ school. Every member of the staff and Board of Education at Watchung Hills is committed to ensuring every student is provided with the opportunity to reach his or her potential. I encourage all of our incoming 9th grade students and parents to peruse the pages that follow filled with the accomplishments of your 10th, 11th, and 12th grade classmates and begin a conversation around the opportunities that interest you at Watchung Hills next year. My number one piece of advice for all members of the Class of 2021 is: Get involved! Join a club, sport, musical ensemble, academic team, etc. - there is something for everyone at Watchung Hills.
