Forbes, who is deaf, channels his passion for music into his outreach to the deaf community via American Sign Language (ASL) videos, workshops and music camps.

The Detroit-based D-PAN, The Deaf Professional Artists Network (www.deafandloud.com), was co-founded by Forbes in 2006. The organization focuses on translating popular songs into ASL music videos for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. Additionally, Forbes and his team of musicians encourage musical expression via hands-on involvement through the music video workshops D-PAN offers.

Collaboration Of Local Business And School http://antonnews.com/oysterbayenterprisepilot/188-oysterbayschools/40407-collaboration-of-local-business-and-school.html On a lovely, bright autumn day in October, the Oyster Bay High School students of the Academic Career Exploration Program (A.C.E.) took a stroll to Dodds & Eder in the town of Oyster Bay. The trip had been planned to deliver homemade treats and cards to graciously thank the staff for providing the students with the supplies necessary to undertake the greenhouse project at Oyster Bay High School. Associates of Dodds & Eder, Sarah Frankel, Dottie Simons, Carrie Leopold and Norma Gattulli,  were on hand to greet the students and show them around the beautifully decorated store.  

The greenhouse at OBHS was built and maintained by science teachers Greg Bilello and Robert Bennett. Since they retired a year ago, the greenhouse has been in desperate need of tender loving care. At the beginning of this school year, teaching assistants Paula Norton and Kathy Brown brought this to the attention of Ellen Rotolo, the A.C.E. teacher. Both the science and special services departments enthusiastically agreed this would be a great project for the class to undertake. The A.C.E. program students were quickly off and running to reclaim this tired space and transform it into a peaceful oasis.

21 Students Earn AP Scholar Awards http://antonnews.com/oysterbayenterprisepilot/188-oysterbayschools/40303-21-students-earn-ap-scholar-awards.html A total of 21 seniors from Oyster Bay High School have been recognized as AP Scholars based on their performance on the Advanced Placement exams, with varying levels of distinction.

The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program provides willing and academically prepared students with the opportunity to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school, and to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP Exams.  About 22 percent of the 2.2 million students worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level to also earn an AP Scholar Award.

Matute And Kowalsky NYS Tennis Doubles Champs http://antonnews.com/oysterbayenterprisepilot/77-oysterbaysports/40503-matute-and-kowalsky-nys-tennis-doubles-champs.html In the history of Oyster Bay High School athletics, no one has ever won a Girls’ Tennis New York State Championship. Celeste Matute and Courtney Kowalsky became the first when they won the 2014 New York State Doubles Championship in Latham on Nov. 3. What makes this tremendous achievement even more remarkable is that Matute is a junior and Kowalsky is a sophomore.

The girls, who are usually singles players, teamed up to take on the very best players in Nassau County and New York State. They won all 10 matches in the section XIII and NYSPHSAA tournaments and left Latham as the 2014 New York State doubles champions.
