Only a few days after the 85th Annual Oscars, we had our own Awards show right here in Merrick. It was Founders Day at Birch Elementary School. It was a star-studded event; with Students being awarded for their artistic ability in this years Reflections theme, “Magic of a Moment”. The winners were, Sean Cohen and Julie Pulewitz for Literature, T.J. Morash for Visual Arts, Derek May for Film Production and Michael Johanson for Musical Composition. PTA Founders Day Awards were also given to teachers, Sherri Millevoi and Stacey Vigna. In addition, awards went to long time deserving Birch Volunteer Marlene Soling, as well as Birch Teacher Aide Lesley Wade and last but not least Birch Parent, Ray Polanco. It was a beautiful night and congratulations to all of the winners!
