Whether its going to be a new grade, a new school, a new teacher or even a new house which means you became a long island resident the 1st day of school can be quite stressful.

 All the questions about new classes, new teachers, new friends and new school can be quite overwhelming.

Just remember to buy your supplies ahead of time, so you don't suffer from having the supplies you need sold out.

Also there is another thing you can you try to send your kids to sleep early a week ahead so that back to school morning you and your kids don't have a hard time waking up earlier than you were used to.

If you are new to the school district make sure you introduce your self to the teachers and make them feel comfortable of telling you anything about your child in the future.

One important thing is to buy your kids the necessary tools for example in gym, make sure you buy them the correct type of jean even if they aren't the most stylish ones. Comfort and Support is better than fashion sometimes.

Also make sure you have a set up time for homework, a time when you are comfortable to check your kids backpack  and know how they are doing in school.

And also make sure you remember that your kids are your responsibility don't expect the teachers to raise your child for you. Remember that everything starts at home. 

any tips for back to school? contact us and let us know how your 1st day of school went.

The original boardwalk was destroyed by Sandy Hurricane.

  Schumer said FEMA will be picking up the tab for most, if not all, of the $44 million price tag.

The new boardwalk is made up of resilient materials, including Brazilian hardwoods and concrete. It also features a retaining wall that will provide protection from future storms.

Many residents are still struggling to rebuild their homes. City officials said the return of a small section of boardwalk is a sign of the progress already being made.

Overall,  this project is expected to span over two miles and cost over $40 million when all construction is complete.

The city says the entire boardwalk will be re-built by early November.

This new Boardwalk is expected to last 30-40 Yrs even with future storms.

The Department of Environmental Conservation likes to highlight and show the importance of tree record size. The promote the importance of tree with peoples everyday lives. The big tree register is based on a list of many trees arranged by name and scientific name order. This list doesn't include hybrid species, only american species. In order to be a champion, the tree needs to have been measured or confirmed to exist within the last 10 years.

The way they find a winner is the sum of the tree's height in feet, the trunk circumference in inches at 4 1/2 feet off the ground, and one quarter of the tree's average crown spread in feet.

If you ever want to nominate a tree after you measurements you should contact you Regional DEC Office and after they confirm the measurements you then also need to contact local DEC office filling out New York State Big Tree Nomination Form after you also find out its the biggest on NY state.
