BOARD OF ED MEETING*S COMING UP The East Rockaway Board of Education will meet at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 28th, in order to discuss the early child- hood program. The Board has also sched- uled Wednesday, March 2nd; Monday, March 7th; and Wed- nesday, March 9th; all at 7:30 p.m, in the high school, as budget work sessions. The public is both invited and encouraged to attend. In addition, the agenda work session has been scheduled for Monday, March 14th, at 7:30 p.m. The regular open meeting will be Monday, March 21st, at 8 p.m. Both meetings are scheduled for the high school. The Lynbrook Board of Edu- cation held its regular monthly meeting on February 7th. Superintendent Bern Seider- man's Report covered Music Festivals, Lunchroom Advisory Committee, the Governor's School Aid proposal, and the Request by Parents for an Ex- tended Day Kindergarten. Dr. Seiderman noted that the District had 47 students at the elementary level, 29 students on the junior high level and 19 students on the high school level chosen to appear at all-county music festiv^s. He singled out Sharon Heth, first horn, and Peggy Schein, first flute, saying it is unusual for two studnets from a single high school to have the honor of being first chairs. The Superintendent noted that. a PTA school lunch com- mittee is being formed, headed by Mrs. Ellen Flowers. In re- gard to State Aid, Dr. Seider- man advised that under the Governor's proposal, Lynbrook would lose approximately $46,000, and he recommended writing to state officials urging reconsideration. In regard to the request for Extended Day Kindergarten Pro- grams, the Superintendent made an extensive report, recommend- ing that such a program not be instituted during the 1983-84 school year (the full report by Superintendent Seiderman will be published next week). A Buildings & Grounds Quarterly Report was submitted by Assistant Superintendent Louis Pearsall. The only major discussion resulting from a ques- tion from the floor had to do with fingerprinting children as is now being done in New Jersey. A matter which will be looked into. The Board took action as follows: I) Diane Sinatra, busi- ness teacher, granted a child care leave; 2) Elinor O'Brien ap- pointed long term substitute, re- placing Diane Sinatra; 3) Jill DeRoy appointed to third year of probation; 4)Lillian Reed ap- pointed Clerk-Typist; 5) approv- ed Election Notice; 6) John Small and Mary Parrish appoint- ed check countersigners for Teen Center.
