Since Spirit Week, the rest of the year flew by! We had an awesome Shiriyah this year with the Seniors taking home the win. It was by far one of the most successful Shiriyah's in the schools (or Dr. Vitow's) history! Watch this fabulous highlights video!<br />

After Shiriyah, we practically jumped right into Passover, March of the Living and AP Week. Honors Night and the amazing art show were next and now here we are at Graduation. The seniors celebrated their friendships and academic successes at Senior Dinner on Tuesday, June 9th. And yesterday, to a packed audience, they graduated at John Cranford Adams Playhouse at Hofstra University. </div>

<br />
<u>Jewsical</u><br />
The
festivities began with an amazing performance of "Jewsical: The Jewish
Experience on Broadway". Two shows were performed: one during the day
for students and faculty and one in the evening for parents.<br />
<br />
The highlights video below demonstrates the success and excitement of the performance.<br />
<br />

<br />
The selection included songs from various Jewish composers including Berlin, Rogers and Hammerstein, Sondheim and Rice and Webber and
and productions including Pippin, Milk and Honey, Fiddler on the Roof,
West Side Story, Yentl and Spamalot. Narrators added depth to the
performance through their explanation and historical insights of the
different numbers.<br />
<u><br /></u>
<u>Hour of Code</u><br />
<br />
Next
up was the school wide hour of code. The Hour of Code is a global
movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries. It is a
one-hour (or one period) introduction to computer science, designed to
demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics. The event was
a bit hit among students and generated a lot of buzz regarding the new
computer science courses introduced at North Shore this year.<br />
<br />

Students worked alone or in pairs/groups to gain valuable experience. <br />

Student helpers from AP Computer Science and Engineering courses were assigned to each room and facilitated the event. <br />

<br />
Even teachers were joining the bandwagon!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<u>Going once, Going twice, Gone!</u><br />
<br />
The
first annual "Chana Poupko Israel Scholarship Fund Auction" was a huge
success.This auction was designed to raise money to send a student to
Israel in memory of Dr. Klein's daughter Chana Poupko who passed away
tragically last year after a long battle with cancer. Donations from the
community made the event possible. The day before the auction, physical
items were on display in the student lounge. On the day of the auction,
everyone got a piece of paper to hold up and a list of available items
for purchase, some of which included homework passes, parking in Dr.
Vitow's spot for a day and other tangible and intangible items. A
professional auctioneer ran the event. Student really got into it. Some
items went for around face value while other items made much more of a
profit. The ability to make a schedule change no questions asked went
for over $300! Artwork custom made by Ms. Lindsey Rabson also went for
several hundred dollars.<br />
<br />
In total, the school raised over $6,200! <br />

Following lunch, half the students went to hear Rabbi Skydell speak in the shul about Chanukah, while the other half enjoyed the Chanukah Chagigah with Eitan Katz in the gym. There was lots of singing and dancing and everyone had a great time! After about a hour, they switched activities, so the whole school would experience both.<br />

At the conclusion of the day, after Mincha, the championship holding NSHAHS Boys Varsity Basketball team took on members of the faculty and staff for an exciting match up in the gym. While the Varsity team easily took home the win, the faculty did make an impressive showing and were fun to watch. The half-time show was a pushup contest represented by one student from each grade.<br />

To wrap up Spirit Week, there was a dessert bar and every student and faculty received a Chanukah present - a NSHAHS blanket to keep them warm on the soon to arrive freezing cold days!<br />
<br />
Overall, the week was a huge success! <br />

The very first graduating class of North Shore Hebrew Academy High School was exactly 10 years ago in June 2004. A decade later, NSHAHS is flourishing with classes of nearly 100 students each year, prestigious college and Israel program acceptances and numerous honors and awards by many students.<br />

<br />
To mark this milestone, a student from the first graduating class, Yehuda Miller, was asked to deliver a keynote speech where he reflected on his time at North Shore and provided insight for students as they take their next steps.<br />
<br />
Both student speeches, valedictorian Emma Oberstein and speaker of the class Naomi Hakimi, delivered exceptional and poignant addresses to their peers, reflecting the quality and depth of their experiences and education acquired throughout their high school years. <br />

Rabbi Weinberg led the graduation ceremonies. Dr. Vitow presented students with their diplomas and the PTA presented them with gifts. <br />
<br />
At the end of the ceremony, the entire class came together in harmony singing a song led by the choir.

All the grades really put their all into the activities, the hallway displays were impressive, our cake designers went all out, and in general everyone put their best foot forward!<br />
<br />
Here is a glimpse at the Shiriyah banquet at The Sephardic Temple last night. The color-coordinated balloons and impressive ballroom made for a fantastic evening for all involved.<br />

The Seniors chanted "I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN" and they were right! Sophomores were second followed by Juniors and although the Freshman came in last, they did make an impressive showing winning several major categories. </div>

<br />
On October 22, ten juniors and seniors who are interested in technology and engineering had the unique opportunity to visit Google headquarters in New York City. Located in one of the largest buildings in the city, a full city block, Google has one of the coolest offices around. From the minute you walk in, you are wowed by lights and décor, a multi-screen wall that displays a live feed of worldwide Google searches and scooters and food at every turn. Each area has its own unique theme including old NYC subway cars, private library study spaces and Lego. The Lego area even has it's own lego play space for creative thinking. And, that is the motivation behind the design - to inspire engineers to think outside the box and be constantly innovating.<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mv4a3CT6S3A/UnPWcUrWBaI/AAAAAAAAACQ/ZbkJ2nPumvM/s1600/DSC_0205.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mv4a3CT6S3A/UnPWcUrWBaI/AAAAAAAAACQ/ZbkJ2nPumvM/s200/DSC_0205.JPG" width="200" /></a><br />
<br />Students were invited to visit and receive a tour by Micah Lemonik. Micah is a graduate of North Shore Hebrew Academy, a resident of Great Neck and an entrepreneur. After graduating from Columbia University, Micah started a small company developing software. Four years later, Google acquired the company for the product now known as Google Docs (or Google Drive). Ten years later, Micah is now a senior staff software engineer managing over 250 staff engineers in New York.<br />

After the tour, Micah gave the students an overview of what he does at Google, how he got started and some advice about careers in engineering. Finally, we convened over pizza in the Google cafeteria. It was a fantastic trip that was enjoyed by all.<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 24px;">As per the <a href="http://blog.globe.gov/sciblog/2013/08/14/globe-students-present-their-research-part-i-the-2013-globe-virtual-student-conference/">GLOBE Project website</a>, one of the most exciting aspects of </span><a href="http://blog.globe.gov/sciblog/2013/08/14/globe-students-present-their-research-part-i-the-2013-globe-virtual-student-conference/www.globe.gov" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #743399; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">The GLOBE Program</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 24px;"> is the ability for students to perform scientific research. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 24px;">The </span><a href="http://www.globe.gov/web/scrc/virtual-conference/2013-virtual-student-conference" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #743399; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">2013 GLOBE Virtual Student Conference</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 24px;">, took place from May 6-31, 2013 and provided a place for GLOBE students of all grade levels to showcase the research they have been performing. 58 projects from 4 countries (Argentina, Madagascar, Thailand and the United States) were submitted to the conference. </span></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">GLOBE provides students with a more integrated view of the various subjects they study and supports <a href="http://www.globe.gov/web/globe-across-the-curriculum">curricula interconnections</a> in all areas.</span></h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Student research projects could cover topics in areas such as the</span><a href="http://www.globe.gov/web/scrc/virtual-conference/2013-virtual-student-conference" style="line-height: 24px;"> atmosphere, hydrology, soil and more</a><span style="line-height: 24px;">, and also needed to make use of GLOBE data. <a href="http://www.globe.gov/web/scrc/virtual-conference/2013-virtual-student-conference/scoring">Projects would be judged</a> based on the use of that data, creativity, scientific thought, thoroughness, knowledge achieved and clarity. <a href="http://www.globe.gov/web/scrc/virtual-conference/2013-virtual-student-conference/instructions">Submissions</a> could be in the form of a Powerpoint, video or other output method.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">This accomplishment is particularly meaningful to North Shore Hebrew Academy because the investigation is so close to home. On a routine GLOBE monitoring day our Environmental Science students noticed that the shoreline of the pond, that NSHAHS was built around, had receded significantly from fall of 2011 to spring of 2012. Their alarm was communicated to the department chair who noted that <a href="https://www.globe.gov/explore-science/student-zone/project-spotlights/projectdetail/globe/the-disappearing-pond-project">the pond in fact had been receding for the past 4 years</a>. The Pond is essentially a catch basin for large volumes of run-off with little recourse. Student investigated the impact this would have on the school and surrounding area.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A number of students at the North Shore Hebrew Academy High School have
been involved in a program called “Stepping Up” Long Island Jewish Teen
Philosophy Pilot Program. Guiding the students through this
philanthropic program was Debra Gold, Community Service Advisor. The
students learned about the Jewish values that guide our giving as well
as about the critical needs on Long Island: education, health, housing,
hunger and jobs. </span></span><br />
