As the school year draws to a close, our school children naturally turn their thoughts to summer vacation and time away from the classroom. It is important, though, to make sure that when school ends in June, we encourage students to keep learning.

That is why I am inviting students in the fourth through sixth grades to continue to explore the exciting world around them by participating in the 2013 New York State Summer Reading Program.  Please click HERE to register for the Summer Reading Program.

It is my hope that our local school children take part in this educational program and use it as their passport to a world of learning and imagination.  If you have any questions or would like more information about the Summer Reading Program, please do not hesitate to contact me at 1-888-568-9816.

Your continued input on matters of interest and concern to you is always welcome and helps me to better serve and represent my constituents.  I hope that you will let me know whenever I can be of assistance to you or your family.
