Energy, action and encouragement for responsible choices were the name of the game when the Dialed Action Sports Team put on an outdoor show for Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School. The educational choreographed school assembly wowed the students with BMX backflips, 360s, no handers and more while providing powerful messages about acceptance, antibullying, healthy lifestyles and seeking positive role models. They also discussed the importance of wearing safety equipment, especially a helmet, whenever on a bike or other recreational vehicles such as hovercrafts and scooters. The Rocky Point School District thanks the PTA for bringing this exciting event to JAE students to reinforce the goal of hard work and dedication to fulfill any dreams that they desire.

Collaboration and Inspiration!

Rocky Point High School students were met with colorful, creative messages on the school’s walkways this week. School social workers Ms. Toni Mangogna and Mrs. Jennifer Zaffino annually visit health classes during Mental Health Awareness Week to help make students aware of the various types of mental illness, who they can reach out to in the building and what to do if they or someone they know are struggling. This year, they came up with the idea to incorporate the art club, headed by art teacher Mr. Seth Meier, to encourage students to write inspirational messages on the walkway leading up to the front doors of the building. The students loved the idea and, chalk in hand, got right to work. “It was a great way to provide support to others who may need a lift,” Ms. Mangogna said.
