1. North Shore School District Board of Education holds first meeting of the school year (liherald.com) — North Shore School District's first board meeting of the year set the stage for big changes affecting Glen Cove-area students, including upcoming shifts in New York's graduation requirements for the class of 2028. Trustees also accepted James Svendson's resignation, opted to appoint his replacement, and outlined the community-driven search timeline for a new superintendent they hope to hire by July.
2. Glen Cove largely avoids severe damage as nor'easter hits Long Island (liherald.com) — Glen Cove came through the recent nor'easter with relatively minor damage, seeing only localized flooding on East Island, a handful of power outages, and scattered downed trees. Residents shared stories of flooded streets, close calls with falling limbs, lost business downtown, and postponed yard sales, but most agreed the city fared far better than many South Shore communities.
3. High school roundup: Soccer, field hockey, volleyball and boys golf (newsday.com) — Glen Cove High School's boys soccer team fell 2-0 to undefeated South Side in a Nassau AA-III matchup, dropping the Big Red to 8-2-1. The broader roundup also highlights strong performances from other Long Island schools in boys and girls soccer, field hockey, volleyball, and golf, offering context on how Glen Cove stacks up in regional competition.
4. The Tiny College In Glen Cove, New York That Offers Full-Tuition Scholarships And Ranks Among The Best In The Country (takingthekids.com) — Webb Institute, the tiny waterfront college right in Glen Cove, offers every admitted U.S. student a full-tuition scholarship to study naval architecture and marine engineering. Set in the historic Braes mansion on Crescent Beach Road, it combines rigorous academics, paid winter internships, and hands-on ship design labs with Long Island Sound views and even a Hollywood connection as Batman's Wayne Manor.
