SOUTH SIDE HIGH SCHOOL January 2019 Dear Parents and Students:

On behalf of the faculty and staff of South Side High School, I extend our best wishes for a wonderful New

Year.

Below, you will find information on the upcoming midterm exams, along with the schedule for the exams.

Please be sure to encourage your child to prepare for midterms and, if needed, to attend extra help.

In addition to important information regarding examinations, this newsletter is filled with the

outstanding accomplishments of our South Side students. We are proud of our South Siders, and I

know that you will be impressed by their accomplishments.

Once again our best wishes for the New Year. May it be filled with good health, peace and joy.

Sincerely,

John Murphy Principal

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT MID YEAR EXAMINATIONS

Please note the day and time of your child’s examinations. In addition to the mid-term exam schedule, you will

find the all-purpose route bus schedule for this week in the pages that follow.

During examinations, we will adhere to the following procedures:

School will open 20 minutes before the exams are scheduled. The south main entrance will be the only open

entrance to the building. Students must leave the building through the same doors upon completion of the

examination.

There will be no food service available between morning and afternoon sessions, and students must leave the

campus. If a student is unable to leave campus or will not have a break between exams, because they need to

take multiple exams (ie. exams in the conflict room), student should bring lunch.

Student lockers will be sealed immediately after classes on January 18th. That afternoon, students will be

unable to open their lockers again until January 29, 2019. Under no circumstances will they be opened.

No backpacks, pocketbooks, cell phones, smart watches, ipods or ipads are to be brought to school. These

items will be confiscated if they are brought into school. Items needed for examination including pens, pencils,

etc. should be kept in a pocket or carried in a clear plastic bag.

If you plan on picking up your child at the end of the exams, please pre-arrange for a meeting time and place.

Please be sure that your child studies and prepares for these important examinations. Extra help zero period is

available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. In addition, the homework helpers program takes

place after school in the library.

Please remind your son/daughter that cell phones and smart watches are not permitted in the

school during midterm and final exams. If they bring a cell phone or smart watch into the

building during the exam period: (1) it will be confiscated and a parent will need to pick it up (2)

your son/daughter will receive a detention. Our attendance office cannot “check in” cell phones

during exams because during some exam sessions over 700 students are tested. Please know that

your son/daughter may use the phones in all offices if they need to contact you. We thank you in

advance for your cooperation. Please also note that our cafeteria is closed.

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT SO CALLED “CUT DAYS”

Attendance is critically important to academic success. Unfortunately, some students believe that they

are entitled to participate in “Cut Days.” If your child tells you it is okay to not attend school because

the class is engaging in a “Cut Day,” please tell them to attend school. Such days are not permitted.

We expect your child to be in school unless they meet the criteria included in the school handbook, such

as: illness, legal obligations and verified college visit for seniors. Participation in a “Cut Day” will

result in disciplinary action and could have an academic penalty if tests or other assessments are being

given that day.

IMPORTANT IPAD INFORMATION iPads continue to play an increasingly important role in instruction. Students need to have their ipad

with them and ready to use for all classes. Students who repeatedly misplace their ipads will be

counseled by an administrator and may face disciplinary action.

COMPACT TEAM

I am happy to announce that South Side again has an active Compact Team. Members for the 2018-

2019 Compact Team are: Students: Isabelle Abate, Josh Erazo, Leah DeVito, Shannon Bender,

Hugh Rosshirt. Parents: Ann Marie Hendry, Patty Leake, Alanna Bender. Teachers: Katie

Clarke, Cristie Tursi, and Herb Weiss.

NATIONAL MERIT SEMIFINALISTS

It is my pleasure to announce that two students from South Side High School were named as

semifinalists in the 2019 National Merit Scholarship Competition. Anthony DeFalco and Alison

McWalters will now have an opportunity to continue in the National Merit Scholarship Competition.

NATIONAL MERIT COMMENDED STUDENTS It is also my pleasure to announce that three students were named National Merit Commended Students.

They are Andrew Beatty, Samantha Cosgrove and Samantha Ying.

Commended students are recognized for the exceptional academic promise demonstrated by their

performance on the PSAT Qualifying Test. Approximately 34,000 Commended Students throughout

the nation have been recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Although they will not

continue in the 2018 competition for National Merit Scholarships, Commended Students placed among

the top five percent of more than 1.5 million students who entered the 2018 competition by taking the

2017 Preliminary SAT/NMSQT exam.

HOBY LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

This year’s South Side High School representatives to the Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY)

Conference will be Karen Hansen and Sofia Romanello. HOBY is a national organization that

sponsors leadership seminars in the United States and around the world. It is designed to take young

leaders, like Karen and Sofia, and further their leadership potential.

Karen volunteers as a teaching assistant, and has attended numerous service trips through the

Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. She is also Treasurer of the Bethany Buddies Club where she

volunteers her time to help provide support and raise money for young families. Sofia is the Vice

President of her class, and is an active member of several clubs, activities, and sports including Athletes

Helping Athletes, Women’s Club, Debate Club, Cancer Awareness Club, Italian Club, Context, and

Girls Soccer. Both Karen and Sofia hope to take what they learn from the HOBY Leadership

Conference to make their school and community a better place.

PRUDENTIAL SPIRIT OF COMMUNITY AWARD NOMINEE

The Prudential Spirit of Community Award was created in 1995 to recognize students who have

demonstrated exemplary community service. This prestigious award, sponsored by Prudential Financial

in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals, is presented annually on

the local, state and national levels. This year’s nominees are Shannon Bender

and Connor Giovanniello, seniors at South Side High School. We wish them well as the process

continues.

DRAMA DEPARTMENT

Congratulations to the cast and crew of this year’s fall drama, Shakespeare's ROMEO AND JULIET.

The cast distinguished themselves magnificently both in their acting and in their mastery of the

challenging language. The cast included Ciara McDonald as Juliet, Nicholas Pandolfo as Romeo, as

well as Grace Woythaler, Aline McEntee, Frankie DeRiso, Drew Beatty, Katherine Quinn, Maya

Jefferson, and many more. This year both lighting and costume design were by current seniors, Emma

Wills-Umdenstock and Melissa Aliotta, respectively. We also had a crackerjack production team who

kept things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Over 100 students participated as cast and crew members in five Student Directed plays on January 4th

and 5th. All of the performances were directed and designed by members of the senior IB Theater

class. The evening was a wonderful mix of comedy, drama and musical entertainment.

This year’s musical will be The Secret Garden based on the children’s classic by Frances Hodgson

Burnett. The musical's script and lyrics are by Marsha Norman, with music by Lucy Simon. The

winner of 5 Tony Awards in 1991, the musical is a moving and poignant story of loss and rebirth - and

the enduring power of love. The Secret Garden will come to life on the South Side stage on April

11th, 12th and 13th.

MUSIC DEPARTMENT

“Where words fail, music speaks.”- Hans Christian Anderson

IB Music Night was held on October 26th in the auditorium. Student compositions and performances

were featured, both of which are part of IB Assessments.

Melissa Aliotta, Julia DeLuca, and Elisabeth Redmond were selected to represent South Side at

NYSSMA’s All-State Winter Conference in Rochester, NY. They performed in All State concerts at the

Eastman Kodak in December.

The RVC Annual Tree Lighting was held on November 29th at the Village Green, where members of

the Band and Chorus led by Mr. Barry LeBron and Brianna Brickman provided a host of holiday

music. Winter concerts were held on December 18th and 21st, culminating four months of music

learning.

The Chamber Singers performed for the patients and staff at South Nassau Communities Hospital on

December 21nd after caroling at South Side Middle School and the Administration building. They also

spent an afternoon singing at the Sandel Center with the Intergenerational Sharing Conference on

December 12th.

Looking ahead, more than 30 students will represent South Side in the All County Music Festivals at

the Tilles Center on the weekend of January 13th, 2019.

Rockville Centre’s District Jazz Concert will be held at SSMS at 7:00 PM on February 7th.

6

Julia DeLuca, Jamie Hatter, and Lauren Moro will represent Rockville Centre in the American

Choral Director’s Association Eastern Division Honors Choirs in Kansas City, MO in March.

All-District concerts will be held during Music in Our Schools Month. The first All-District concert

will be for the orchestras on March 12th, with the bands on March 14th, and the choruses on March 18th.

All concerts will begin at 7 pm at South Side Middle School.

The Alumni Concert will be held on Monday, June 19th this year at SSMS. Any alumni who would

like to perform are welcome. Please email [email protected] for more information or join the

RVC Music Alumni Facebook Group.

SCIENCE DEPARTMENT

This year the South Side science research group has been both busy and productive. There have been

15 different competitions in which our students participated. These are some of the students that earned

awards and were not recognized for their achievements as of the previous newsletter.

Our Robotics Team earned second place at the Robotics competition on Saturday January 5th. This

victory will give our robot from RVC an opportunity to compete against others at the N.Y. State

competition.

Once again this year our Science Department is working in conjunction with the New York State

Department of Environmental Conservation and the Cold Spring Harbor Fish Hatchery and aquarium,

on a project entitled “Trout in the Classroom.” Our students are hatching brown trout from the eggs till

maturity to be released along with brook trout in approved local waters this spring.

SADD

This year, Students Against Destructive Decisions raised awareness about the dangers of drugs and

alcohol during Red Ribbon Week. We collaborated with the Tobacco Action Coalition of Long Island

to present the dangers of tobacco use for The Great American Smoke Out. The Family Fun Fitness

Fair in October was a major collaboration of the RVC Drug, Alcohol, and Violence Prevention Task

Force, Rockville Centre Coalition for Youth and the RVC Youth Council. The SADD club

continuously collaborates with the RVC Youth Council on all social and recreational activities

sponsored by them including a bowling night, dodgeball night, and community service opportunities.

We also helped with the organization of the Fall Parent Presentation.

YOUTH DECIDE

Youth Decide students are members of SADD who also are peer drug educators. As such, they sign a

leadership agreement to remain drug/alcohol and tobacco free. These students are trained in facilitating

discussions regarding tobacco/drug prevention for students in grades 5-8. Youth Decide will be making

presentations at Hewitt, Riverside, Watson, Wilson, Covert and the Middle School.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY

Fifteen students were inducted into the National Honor Society on October 23rd. They were: Connor

Alfano, Nicholas Bradley, Ryan Collins, Michael Facenda, Michael Fennessy, Riley Ford, Dylan

Gennosa, Dylan Harloff, Erblina Haxhnikaj, James Hennessey, Maya Jefferson, Ryan McMahon,

Jerusha Medidha, Matthew Ray, and George Smith. Congratulations to all!

All members of National Honor Society are available for Peer Tutoring. If you would like more

information about this program, please contact your child’s guidance counselor.

The members of National Honor Society will begin planning a large fundraiser event to be held this

spring. They are currently busy selecting possible charitable organizations and expanding the scope of

fundraising efforts and service.

LEO CLUB

The Leo Club participated in several events this fall and winter including the Spookey Fest, a Food

Drive, Ringing the Bell for the Salvation Army and Bake Sales to raise money for a donation to

Bethany House. The combined efforts of Leo Club and Habitat for Humanity provided food and gift

cards for many families in Rockville Centre through St. Agnes and the MLK Center. Although, the

Leo’s and Lion’s club members were only able to ring the bell for the Salvation Army on one Saturday,

due to poor weather conditions, two buckets were filled on that one Saturday. As the Leo Club is now

8

officially recognized by the Lion’s Club International organization this year we are entertaining the

possibility of sending one of our members to Arizona for an international LEO Club conference over

the summer. Other future projects include: attendance at the United Nations Lion/Leo Club day, a

spring food drive, a meal to the Bethany House and two more bake sales.

MATH HONOR SOCIETY Math Honor Society had their Induction ceremony on Monday, November 19. 106 students were

inducted into the Honor Society. Mr. Gallina, Mrs. Reilly, Mr. Rubenfeld and Mrs. Frazer were honored

at the ceremony. Officers were chosen as well. They are: President: Kailey Sewell, 1st Vice-

President: Zoe Leff, 2nd Vice-President: Kassie Zangari, Secretary: Ryan Riccio

We are working on developing a tutoring program and planning a Pi Day Celebration in March.

MATHLETES This year, the team has competed in four out of six of Nassau County Interscholastic Mathletes

Competitions, with the two remaining competitions to be held in February and March. There are

approximately 15 students participating in the competitions. The team also competes monthly in the NY

Math League, and will attend the Nassau Math Tournament held at SUNY Old Westbury on Friday,

February 1st.

QUIZ BOWL

The South Side Quiz Bowl team is led by several members of the senior class. Each month we compete

with different high schools in Western Nassau in a tournament held at Valley Stream South High

School. We have two matches remaining this year before playoffs begin. We compete in Varsity and

Junior Varsity level questions for each competition. The Quiz Bowl team currently consists of 12

members and holds weekly meetings to exercise their minds in general trivia knowledge across many

different subjects.

_________________________________________________________________________

News from the Health Office…

Flu season is upon us. Remember to wash your hands since this is one of the best defenses to decrease

the spread of germs as well as covering your mouth when you cough and/or sneeze.

Seasonal Flu Facts: In the United States, the influenza or "flu" season usually runs from late Fall into

late Spring. The flu is a serious illness. Flu usually starts with fever, sore throat, cough, tiredness, and

body aches. If your child has any of these symptoms, it is in his/her best interest to seek medical

attention and remain home until he/she is well.

H1N1 (Swine) flu facts: This type of flu was first diagnosed in April 2009 by a school nurse. It’s a

new flu strain that failed to disappear in the warm weather. It presents as a sore throat, temperature

greater than 100, runny nose, headache, cough, body aches, fatigue, chills, nausea, diarrhea, and nasal

and/or chest congestion. Those that presented with H1N1 experienced mild symptoms and recovered at

home. This type of flu virus is now in the flu vaccine.

Flu Prevention: The best way to protect yourself from getting either flu is by getting vaccinated with

the flu vaccines which contains both seasonal and H1N1 flu protection. Since the flu virus changes

each year, it is important that you receive a new seasonal flu vaccine every year. It takes approximately

2 weeks after vaccination to develop antibodies against the flu. The best months to get vaccinated are

October through December; however, you can get vaccinated throughout the season. Any protection

against the flu is better than no protection!

9

Practice good hand washing. Everyone should wash their hands often with soap and water, especially

after coughing or sneezing and before eating for at least 20 seconds (sing Happy Birthday twice). If

you are not near a sink, gels, rubs, and hand wipes all work well, as long as they contain at least 60%

alcohol.

Cover your cough! The main way that the flu spreads is from person to person in the droplets produced

by coughs and sneezes. It’s important to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or

sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder, NOT into your hands.

Stay home if you have a fever > 100.4, vomiting, diarrhea, severe sore throat or headache with a fever

until you are symptom free for 24 hours. This keeps the germs to themselves rather than sharing them

to others in our school buildings.

You CANNOT get the flu from the flu vaccine!

9th graders:

All 9th graders will be screened for scoliosis during the month of March “Scoliosis Screening Month”.

Scoliosis (sko-lee-O-sis) is a medical condition in which there is a sideways curve of the spine or

backbone. The purpose of scoliosis screening is to identify students with spinal abnormalities that may

cause impairment of the body’s range of motion and endurance, and in the advanced stages, back pain.

In its early stages, scoliosis is not usually detected without the careful examination by trained persons.

With early detection and intervention, scoliosis may be prevented from progressing so that it does not

interfere with mobility, activity, or comfort. If you have any objections, please notify the health office,

in writing, no later than February 28, 2019.

10th graders entering 11th grade in September:

All students entering 11th grade next year are required to have a physical examination. All students who

do not submit the necessary documentation by September 30th, 2019, will be examined by the District

nurse practitioner. Physical examination forms are available in the health office or on the nursing

website which can be found by going to www.rvcschools.org click on health services under

departments & programs.

11th graders entering 12th grade in September:

Immunization law has changed again and now requires your child to have (2) vaccines to protect them

against meningococcal disease if they received the 1st vaccine before age 16. After age 16, your child

requires only 1 vaccine. However, some students received 2 vaccines before age 16 and now require a

3rd vaccine! If your child does not have this vaccine(s) by September 30, 2019, he/she will not be

permitted to attend school.

Emergency Contact Cards:

Please remember to send in your child’s updated emergency contact card since this is an important part

of your child’s records and the best way to reach you when needed. The emergency cards now require

email addresses of each parent/person in parental relation. If you have not submitted an emergency

contact card for this school year or your telephone number(s) and/or address has changed, please

contact the health office at (516) 255-8955, have your child pick up an emergency contact card at the

health office or go to the nursing website and print an emergency contact card.

Nursing Website:

All school forms including emergency contact cards, medication, mandated physicals and sports forms

can be downloaded from this website as well as providing information on various health topics. The

website also provides links to various health organizations. You can find the website by going to

http://www.rvcschools.org/

10

www.rvcschools.org, click on departments and programs, click on health services, click on printable

forms, and select the form you wish to print.

Sports Information for Spring Season:

Athletes trying out for a Spring sport can have their examination performed at SSHS on Feb 27th n

Room 1309 at 2:30-3:30. All athletes are responsible for determining which paperwork is needed for a

clearance to be received in a timely fashion. This information can be found on the wall in the nurses’

office. Most sports begin on Monday, March 11, 2019.

Concussion testing is available February 27th, February 28th, March 1st, March 4th and March 5th

from 3:15-4:15 at SSHS Room 2311 and June 3,4,5,6 from 3-4 at SSHS Room 2311.

Wishing all a happy and healthy New Year.

SSHS PTA

On behalf of the South Side High School PTA, we extend to you our warmest wishes for a happy and

healthy new year. We hope your holidays were filled with the joy and peace of family and friends. We

end 2018 on a note of gratitude to our parent volunteers and to the leadership team, faculty and staff at

the high school.

In 2019, we renew our resolution to provide a supportive connection between home and school. The

high school years are a transformational time in our students’ lives. We continue to be mindful that they

learn from our example as they forge their own identities. We celebrate their successes, and we learn

from all of the challenges we rise to meet together.

Please attend our monthly meetings and if you haven’t already, join our PTA. Nominations for officers

for the 2019-20 school year will be open soon; we need--and appreciate--your help and your

involvement.

With many thanks for your continued support,

Sue Quilty
