State Senator Carol Berman congratulates William Riley, band instructor at Lynbrook High School, on helping to lead the students selected to perform in Albany, at the New York State Student Music Association. Meagher Elected Continued from Page 1 Mr. Ralph Grandinetti, principal of Rhame Avenue school, noted that kinder- garten registration would be held on March 9, 12, 15 and 19, while screening would take place on April 2, 5, 9 and 12. He commended Mr. Stewart, a teacher at Rhame, for his efforts at reviving the school news- paper, now in its second issue. Mr. Grandinetti reported that the gym floor has been repaired and that Monday, February 13, was the first day in which the children could make use of the facilities. He concluded with the information that Rhame Avenue students scored very well on their Pupil Evaluation Program (PEP) tests. Third grade students scored 87% above the reference point in read- ing, and 96% above in math, while sixth graders scored 91% higher than average in reading and 88% in math. Mr. Robert Parry, princi- pal of the High School reported that Rock Rivalry is well underway, and will be held on March 14, 15and 16. He stated that the Student Government was printing posters to attack the small vandalism problem that has arisen recently. He compli- mented the \It's Academic\ teams, the Mock Trial teams and those students who par- ticipated in the various Model Congresses. He ended by asking all persons .preparing, their taxes to remember to enter Code No. 166 on their forms so that the district will be credited with the proper percentage of state aid. The Board concluded sev- eral personnel matters. It approved the hiring of Edward Vorhees as Business Office Consultant at a cost of $150 per day, three days per week, until a new Busi- ness Administrator is appointed.When asked for how long Mr. Vorhees will remain in this position, Mr. Maiden responded \well into next year. I hope he could stay six years.\ The Board approved the mater- nity leave for Arleen Buck- ley, and appointed Joanne Lamond as her replacement. It also approved Ann Col- well and Janet Matthews as lunch aides at Centre Avenue, Beverly Lonergan, Frances Murphy and Patri- cia Brennan as school aides at Rhame, Richard Fasci- glione temporary as custo- dian, Kerri Koehler as Spe- cial Education Teacher at Centre, and Sandra Lehner as science teacher. \We are very fortunate to secure Ms. Lehner's services,\ Mr. Maiden added. Ms. Lehner currently teaches at Roose- velt High school. Finally, the Board accepted with regrets the resignation of Mrs. Audrey Trussel and authorized the superintend- ent to seek a replacement. The Board also approved the Peat, Marwick proposal, at a cost not to exceed $4,000, to bring the district's books up to date, and M & E Technicians, Inc., to make boiler repairs at the three schools for the amount of $2,740, These repairs will remove backings which con- tain traces of asbestos. During the privilege of the floor, a resident asked why the voting hours had been changed to noon until 9 p.m., rather than the 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. time held at the last election. Mr. Maiden responded that it was diffi- cult to obtain poll watchers for the extended voting time, and that the retention of the longer voting hours was not warranted. It was then brought out that between the hours of 6 a.m. and noon, more than 400 people voted during the last bond vote. \You do a dis- service to the community by having these restrictive vot- ing hours,\ stated Mr. Leo- nard Polikoff. Mr. Akron- gold stated that he had not been aware that so many people would be excluded with the new voting hours, and added that since 20% of the total vote was cast at that time, it would be worthwhile for the community to allow for extended voting hours. President Richard Meagher agreed. Mr. A1 Kachinoski and Mrs. Dolores Maggio disagreed, stating that for many years the district began its voting at noon, and the past bond vote was an exception, not the rule. Mrs. Maggio stated that it was too difficult to get workers for the extended hours. Both voted to keep the hours at noon until 9 p.m., while Mr. Akrohgold and Mr. Meagher voted to expand them to 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. The meeting adjourned into session at 10:30 p.m. Refreshments were gra- ciously provided by the Rhame Avenue PTA. The next meeting of the East Rockaway Board of Educa- tion will be held on Monday, March 19.
