By Katy Gottlieb, LHS Key Club Vice President

To kick off Halloween, LHS Key Clubbers taught the importance of safety to the kindergarteners at the Lynbrook Kindergarten Center. LHS Key Clubbers read books to the kindergarteners on the dos and don’ts of trick or treating to remain safe this spooky season.

Senior Key Club treasurer Bennett Votano said, “It is important to teach the kindergartners about Halloween safety because if they don't follow these rules, it could be dangerous.” Therefore, ensuring safety on Halloween is essential for children to have fun – which is what these Key Clubbers set out to do.

First, the Key Clubbers broke into small groups and rotated around all the classes. The high schoolers asked the kindergartners if they were excited about Halloween and asked them to guess what they were dressed up as. After the book was finished, the high schoolers interacted with the kindergartners by asking them fun fall questions such as what they were dressed up as and their favorite Halloween candies. Junior KC treasurer Aidan Pearsall exclaimed, “It made me so happy to hear the kids light up at our interest in their costumes.” To culminate the morning, the high schoolers and kindergartners took a group photo to remember the special event. Finally, the students who participated won erasers for answering questions. 

“My favorite part of the event was giving erasers to the kids after we read them the book,” Votano expressed. “It made me happy to see them so excited.”

Ultimately, fun was had by all this Halloween. KC advisor Dr. Ben Tieniber added, Our seniors are giving back to the community. Senior KC treasurer Cooper Schorr agreed, stating, “My favorite part of the event was seeing all the kids and being able to sit down with them. It reminded me of how far I have come in my life and that they will one day be like me. It was more special than just teaching kids about Halloween safety.” By teaching these students about stranger danger and Halloween safety, these Key Clubbers were able to make a difference in these kindergartners’ lives! #OwlProud #OwlCares

In recognition of School Board Appreciation Month, students from throughout the Lynbrook School District presented a thoughtful surprise to trustees at the Oct. 9 board of education meeting. 

Marion Street, Waverly Park and West End elementary schools and the Kindergarten Center were represented by student leaders who read a tribute to the trustees. “To our wise board, with hearts so true, each decision you make helps our schools shine through,” read Waverly Park student Weston Schmieder. They each distributed bags filled with gifts such as wristbands and Lynbrook Owl themed keychains to board members. Each school also decorated a poster with messages of thanks that were covered in signatures from students.
