The Smithtown High School<br />
East Leadership class is taking<br />
contributions for engraved bricks<br />
to build a walkway from the<br />
north side of the school to the<br />
new sports field.<br />
The project is being led by<br />
Maggie Engellenner, a senior in<br />
the Leadership class. Maggie<br />
chose this project because she<br />
felt that this was “a chance to<br />
both improve the school and<br />
leave a lasting mark. High<br />
School East connects our community<br />
in so many ways: community<br />
service, athletics, cultural<br />
events, parades, adult education.<br />
This is an opportunity for families,<br />
businesses, current students,<br />
future students, alumni, teachers<br />
and all the members of our community<br />
to leave a permanent<br />
message that they passed this<br />
way. You can buy a brick for your<br />
elementary school-aged child<br />
– 16 –<br />
A R O U N D T O W N<br />
Help Pave the Way... Buy a Brick Today<br />
today and, one day, that<br />
child will look down and<br />
see their brick.”<br />
This walk marks the<br />
path that athletes, cheerleaders,<br />
the band and the<br />
Whisperettes take on the<br />
way to the field. It is the<br />
same route that seniors<br />
take in the commencement<br />
processional. The<br />
class of <strong>2012</strong> will be the<br />
first class to walk “the<br />
walk”.<br />
The project is being undertaken<br />
with the help and support<br />
of the school district including<br />
Leadership class mentor Morgan<br />
Woods and Smithtown East Principal<br />
Edwin Thompson. The<br />
walkway was designed and is<br />
being constructed by RJK Gardens<br />
of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>James</strong>.<br />
The fundraiser will go on until<br />
the beginning of March. The<br />
RJK Garden’s rendering of new<br />
Smithtown East Walkway.<br />
project is scheduled to be completed<br />
in time for this year’s graduation.<br />
