    Dayton Avenue Student a Winner in Marine Science Poster Contest

    Annika Bisagni thumbnail266244

    Dayton Avenue School fifth grade student Annika Bisagni was the elementary winner in the Marine Science Poster Contest sponsored by the New York State Marine Education Association and Nassau Science Teachers Association of New York State. Her winning poster entry about the effect of invasives in the ocean was selected for its creativity, research and problem-solving through her investigation of local marine phenomena.

    Annika and her classmates in Danielle Savino’s class all participated in the Marine Science Poster Contest in March. The students were challenged to design a poster that linked the New York State Science Learning Standards to a marine phenomenon or problem in the local area. This contest provided a wonderful opportunity for students to demonstrate their scientific understanding by modeling, explaining or suggesting solutions for marine-related issues in their community.

    The district congratulates Annika for this outstanding accomplishment.

    Dayton Avenue and Eastport Elementary students thumbnail266133

    Dayton Avenue and Eastport Elementary students drew packed audiences during recent stage performances of “Mary Poppins, Jr.” and “Beauty and the Beast,” respectively.

    Under director Tori Gonzalez, stage director Peter Edwards and musical director Kaitlyn Somerville, the colorful and talented cast performed the beloved classical favorite “Mary Poppins, Jr.” on April 25 and April 26, which included a similar storyline, cast of characters and playlist as the Broadway and television versions. Likewise, Eastport Elementary School thespians wowed the audience with their rendition of the beloved fairytale “Beauty and the Beast” on March 28 and March 29, under the direction of Melanie Mauriello. The students also kept to the main storyline of the Disney version and included the same familiar and beloved characters and songs.

    Mr. Gonzalez spoke for both schools when she said the students worked really hard for weeks to prepare for their opening nights on stage. Borrowing a line form the show, she said, “They certainly deserve recognition for their efforts. The show [“Mary Poppins, Jr.”] was practically perfect in every way.”
