Bell-To-Bell Device Plan:
As part of an effort led by Governor Kathy Hochul to improve student focus and mental well-being, schools across New York State will be enforcing a Bell-to-Bell Device Ban . Under this new law, students will no longer be permitted to use personal internet-enabled devices—including cell phones, smartwatches, and similar technology—during the instructional day, from the first bell to the last. In accordance with the law, the Lyncourt Board Of Education approved Policy #7316: Use of Internet-Enabled Devices During The School Day.
This change is intended to reduce classroom distractions, support more engaged learning, and promote healthier, more focused school experiences for all students.
As students return in the fall, we understand that adjusting to this new ...

Ecology Club Newsletter:
An eclipse is an astrological event that is caused by the total/partial covering of one heavenly body by another. There are two major types of eclipses: a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse. A lunar eclipse is when Earth’s shadow covers the moon. A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks us from seeing the sun. Solar eclipses can be classified as either total, partial, hybrid or annular. Total and partial are self-explanatory. A hybrid eclipse is when an eclipse shifts between annular and total as the moon moves across the globe. Annular eclipses happen when the moon passes between the sun and the earth, but only when it is at or near its farthest point from earth. This means that the moon appears smaller than the sun, and doesn’t completely cover it because the moon is farther ...

American Rescue Plan:
Our school community is working hard to maintain some sense of normalcy and plan for next year. I am hopeful that in the fall we will be returning to a somewhat typical learning environment. As we make this transition, we will be faced with some significant challenges. Helping our students make sense of their experience during the pandemic will be one of our greatest challenges and top priorities.
In conjunction with the New York State Department of Education, we are requesting stakeholder feedback on how we can prepare for the next school year. I am hopeful that the plan we have in place will guide in the next school year and beyond. I ask that you please take a moment to review the American Rescue Plan and provide comments or questions in the survey below.
