The artwork of Deasy School’s very own Mikayla Schnitzer was chosen to be shown at the 2019 Art Supervisors Association’s Nassau All-County Art Exhibit. This exhibit provides a showcase for the most impressive and diverse variety of two-dimensional student artwork. Congratulations!

Deasy School commemorated the 100th day of school with a variety of math, art and physical activities that had students smiling.

As part of the celebration, students enjoyed creating structures using 100 different items, such as cups, dominoes, wood blocks and Legos. They also snacked on a pretzel rod and two fudge-striped cookies, which represented the number 100, painted pictures of the number 100 and used the number 1 and two 0s to make unique artwork. In addition to counting and other activities, the students completed 100 exercises.

Many children made the day more memorable by dressing as if they were 100 years old, sporting suspenders, shawls and spectacles.  

Second-graders in Michael Battaglia’s class at Deasy worked with STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) teacher Jessica McKenna to conduct research on ecosystems and environments and how they change over time. After concluding their research, students learned to use Book Creator and made an e-book on their specific area of study.
