bcnool District 18
An address by a senior at the
Plainedge High School
graduation led to considerable
discussion at the Plainedge
School Board meeting last
Thursday. Dr. John Rinehart,
Superintendent of schools, said
that the speech showed poor
judgement and was " embarrassing
to the district and the
superintendent" but students had
a right to express themselves. He
said the student speeches are
supposed to be reviewed by the
high school principal. The
principal, Dr. Leonard Adler was
not present to say whether or not
there had been any review.
Board President, James
Ackley tried to cut off board
discussion of the incident, but his
decision was overruled by the
votes of Trustees Hugh Burr,
Donald Kanter, Michael Lan-zerone,
Robert Mackreth, and
James Miller. Burr said he would
not support review and censorship.
Lanzerone pointed out
that graduation addresses by two
students with the best academic
records werea tradition. It would
be a mistake to censor or
eliminate them, he said He also
remarked that the audience at
the graduation had acted
' inappropriately'.
Dr. Rinehart said that the
physical conditions in the
gymnasium during the
graduation were very uncomfortable
and that the district
is looking into larger facilities for
.. future graduations.
The board had " basically"
agreed to resubmit the budget,
but no decisions on when or in
what form, had been reached,
according to President Ackley.
The board passed the necessary
resolutions and contingency
budget under New York State
Law to have summer school in
operation.
An article about the Plainedge
schools which had appeared in
Newsday earlier in the week was
discussed. President Ackley said
that the board members have
been harassed by reporters and
what was reported was not the
" full truth." Among other
' errors,' Trustee Kantor said he
had not stated as Newsday said
he did, that the executive
meeting discussion of the budget
was " amicable". Dr. Rinehart
said there has been no change in
policy on the black history
course, field trips, or the pen pal
program. Trustee Mackreth
questioned whether these
programs did " go forward."
Ackley ann6unced that at a
future meeting he will propose a
resolution to change the method
of electing trustees so that
trustees would not run for a
particular seat but the ones with
the highest number of votes
would win. To go into effect this
system ( now used to elect town
council men) would have to be
approved by the public. This
method of voting would help to
eliminate personal attacks'
during campaigning. Arguments
against this method were that
under this system incumbents
would run against each other.
This would not help for working
harmony. The incumbent should
be abie to stand on his record,
and the opposition should be able
to focus specifically on an individual's
position and
qualifications.
The school board and the administration
will embark on a
complete review of drug abuse
and addiction. Trustee Miller
made a statement that Dr.
Leonard Adler and Miss Gloria
Rosenthal of the High School,
Seventh precinct police
arrested three male youths at
Tackapausha Park for possession
of drugs and three young girls for
loitering at the scene.
The youths charged were

YOUTHS ARRESTED
FOR ASSAULTING
POLICE OFFICERS
Jack Colasanto, 17, of 257 N.
Chestnut St., North Massapequa
was arrested and charged with
assault in the second degree.
According to police, patrolmen
Walter Strain and William Smith,
were trying to make an
authorized arrest, when
Colasanto assaulted the officers.
who have been assailed on such
counts as acting without
authority and suppressing information
in connection with a
drug incident, are not guilty of
the accusations.
A question was asked whether
new educational methods, such
as a reading program discussed
in the Sunday News, was being
looked into. After a number of
statements by President Ackley it
was finally answered by Dr.
Rinehart that this and other new
innovations are under study.
Henry Cardella and Terry
Bahnken, newly- elected trustees
sat at the board table during the
meeting.
