Senior Model UN Club Co-Presidents Reflect on a Busy Year
Following the Club’s last meeting on June 9, Leah Morales and Greg
Valdespino reflected on a busy year and a long term commitment to Sleepy
Hollow High School’s Model UN Club. The pair has shared a variety of
responsibilities since they first joined the club as freshmen, but this
schoolyear has been a particularly busy one.
“Model UN has been a major part of my high school career. I distinctly
remember going to my first meeting on the last day of eighth grade,
knowing little about what Model UN was about. Ever since that first day
I have been greatly interested in the inner workings of the United
Nations and how important it is to the world and its well being.
Throughout my years I was able to walk for hunger, adopt a manatee, fund
the clean up of land mines, participate in school awareness campaigns,
visit United Nations headquarters and attend two Model UN conferences in
Boston, among other things. I encourage all students at Sleepy Hollow to
attend a meeting or talk to a member. Being a part of this club will
allow them to leave high school with the satisfaction of having made a
difference in the world as a teenage student, something I will treasure
always.” Leah Morales.
“This year
has been extremely successful for the Model UN. We have raised money for
disaster relief and mine clearance, and we have sent toys to orphans in
Honduras. The Harvard Model UN trip was extremely productive and I think
all students enjoyed meeting new students and engaging in an active
discussion; at the least, I certainly did. Model UN has changed my life
and is the reason why I plan to pursue International Affairs next year
at Stanford. I am so glad that
I have had the privilege of participating in this amazing group.” Greg
Valdespino

Students Gear Up for the Science Regents
Exam
On
Saturday, May 30th over 130 high school students and almost
50 middle school students gave up their morning to prepare for their
June science Regents examination. The Mock Regents were administered in
the subjects of Living Environment, Earth Science, Physics, and
Chemistry. The fact that so many students showed up for a voluntary
test was remarkable. Mr. Franco commented, “I was delighted by the
great turnout. We’ve done this in other years, but the turnout was
never so high.”
At
the high school level, Chris Adamo, Jason Choi, Carlos Franco, Stephanie
McQuade, Leana Peltier, and Eric Rinaldi gave up their Saturday morning
and volunteered to administer the practice exam. At the middle school
level, Debbie McCarl and Deidre Sullivan administered the Living
Environment Regents for their Honors level 8th graders.
“Whether we like it or not, state tests are becoming more important in
the lives of our students. It is our duty to prepare them as best as we
can. Most students see the importance of doing well on the Regents.”
said Mr. Choi.
Feedback from the students was very positive and several students
actually thanked their teachers for giving them a test on a beautiful
Saturday morning in May. The science teachers will grade the Mock
Regents examination and share the results with their students to
identify areas of weakness and devise a specific review plan.
The June Science Regents Exam schedule is as follows:
Wednesday, June 17 -
Earth Science and Chemistry
Thursday, June 18 – Living Environment
Wednesday, June 24 – Physics (Posted

Prom Safety/Alcohol Awareness Day
With the
high school senior prom just a day away, the SADD Club (Students Against
Destructive Decisions) along with VASSA sponsored a Prom Safety/Alcohol
Awareness Day on Wednesday, May 27th. A crashed car from a
local DWI accident was on display at the school for students to view.
Members from the SADD Club explained the tragic story behind the DWI-related
car crash to fellow high school students who came out to view the
wreck. Aside from viewing the crashed car, students also had the
opportunity to participate in a couple of alcohol awareness activities
including “walking the line” wearing goggles that simulate alcohols’
effects on the body. The senior lounge in the high school was also
decorated with various informative posters and facts on the dangers of
binge drinking including a reality wall of student made projects
detailing the negative effects and consequences associated with alcohol
abuse. Informative pamphlets and brochures on alcohol use and binge
drinking were distributed to interested students as well. Overall, we
experienced a terrific turn-out and a high level of student interest.
SADD and VASSA would like to wish everyone a safe and fun prom this
year!

Day in the Renaissance
On
April 29th and on May 5th, Sleepy Hollow High
School’s class of 2012 experienced a Day in the Renaissance, at
Caramoor in Katonah, New York. Studying the Renaissance is part of the
Global History and Geography ninth grade curriculum. To enhance their
understanding of this period, the students were taken back in time to
experience this great era of technical and artistic developments. In
the House Museum students admired portraits and tapestries dating back
to the 1400’s. They learned Renaissance songs and dances which helped
them to see the importance of the theatre arts in the lives of
Renaissance men and women. Students even got to observe the ancient
craft of falconry!
The social studies department and all the ninth graders who attended
would like to thank the Foundation
for their generosity in making this exciting day possible for us. A good
time was had by all, and it was a day our Global students will not
forget. (Posted

Studio in Media Arts Digital Portfolios
Creating
Digital Portfolios offers students enrolled in Studio in Media Arts at
SHHS the opportunity to develop self-assessment and critical thinking
skills. By the end of each course, the students compile a digital art
portfolio showing samples of their best art pieces along with written
reflections of the works. For the portfolio cover, the students create
an original digital collage based on a theme of their choice. The
portfolio creation and the reflection process allows the student to look
back at the art-making process and learn from their successes, as well
as, their challenges. The digital portfolio can also provide the
teacher with an assessment tool to evaluate the student's progress.
Ultimately, the goal of the portfolio is to instill confidence in the
student by allowing them to view their projects as a body of work and an
achievement that they can be proud of.

Art, Technology and Popular Culture- ANDY WARHOL Celebrity Portraits
Studio
in Media Arts classes at Sleepy Hollow High School motivate and engage students
in art through the use of technology. Students learn about art history,
art movements and create hands-on art projects via iMac workstations. In
this assignment, influenced by the style of the celebrity portraits of
Andy Warhol, the students created a series of digital images using
scanned photos of a celebrity of their choice. The students also
compiled research about the Pop Art movement
and created virtual silk-screen prints via online art resources. Warhol
is considered to be one of the most influential artists of the second
half of the 20th century and his images still adorn clothing and
advertising today. As a leader in the Pop Art movement,
he reflected upon trends in society by using everyday images and
cultural icons for his subjects. He was interested in mass-producing his
art and achieved this through the process of photographic silkscreening.
If he were alive today, he would no doubt have embraced the world of
digital imaging to further expand his creative vision. Click
