thread_title: Need graduation dates of alumni mentioned in article

message: * Documents creating the Brentwood Union Free School District in mid-1950's
* Photos of groundbreaking ceremonies for original buildings in district
* More about Brentwood High School in 50's and 60's, with sources (probably hardcopy or microfilm sources from Brentwood Library or Suffolk County Historical Society)
* I know that there were many Vietnam vets who are Brentwood graduates. Would love to read how Vietnam War affected curriculum, did any demonstrations disrupt school, etc.
* Evolution of dress codes

replies: text: The 1967 Arrowhead had a list of those whose pictures were not taken.  Even so, it's optimistic, as a few seniors in that yearbook, didn't graduate.  There was a printed program at the 1967 graduation ceremony that listed all the graduates.  Finding these printed programs in the District archives, or at the Library would be the best way to get these counts. Possible there is some report to NY State, listing all the graduates, which might be in the District or NY State archives. Lentower 14:57, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Want list for this article

message: It seems that only grades 9-12 went to Bay Shore H.S. before 1956-57. A note I received via Classmates (from someone who graduated Brentwood in 1965) says that they started at Village Elementary in 1953. I'm noting it here for further research but haven't entered it into the entry yet. RahadyanS 14:55, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Correction: I meant to write that only grades 9-12 went to school in the Bay Shore school district before 1956-57. What confuses me a bit are reports that there was a principal for Brentwood High School (Frederick Weaver) in 1955. Speculation: the Brentwood school district changed boundaries between 1955 and 1957? RahadyanS 04:51, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was a student in the District from 1956-1967, and have no memory of the District boundaries changing.  Speculation: the Brentwood students has their own administrators, teachers, and/or classrooms at Bay Shore, in preparation fro moving to the new building. Lentower 14:57, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Brentwood students in Bay Shore High School

message: I found a Wiki entry for Carl Adams (wrestler) and added him to the notable alumni list. He is noted as having graduated from Iowa State in 1972, so I assumed (not a big stretch) that he graduated from BHS in '68. RahadyanS 14:31, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Carl Adams, wrestler and coach

message: An obituary for Ruth Weaver, a retired school nurse in the Brentwood schools, noted that her husband Frederick had been principal of Brentwood High School from 1955 onward, and both had retired from the district in 1973. I have to find documentation that helps me explain why the 50th anniversary of the high school is being celebrated in 2007, while there had been a high school in Brentwood (though not in the present buildings) since at least 1955.

thread_title: Frederick Weaver, former principal

message: Eventually, there'll be a section devoted to Teachers of the Year. Robert Frankel (Guidance) and Louis Anzovino (Language) won it for the 1979-80 school year; Judi Hearst (later Judi Hearst Weissman) won it in 1983 and 1993. RahadyanS 14:10, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Teachers of the Year

message: There are apparently a series of Christian novels (aimed at teenagers) set at a Brentwood High. RahadyanS 07:19, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Brentwood High School in fiction

message: Someone today deleted her from the faculty list. She's no longer a science teacher and dept. head at BHS? If no longer a member of the faculty, she should be included since the list is Past and Current Faculty. RahadyanS 05:21, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The years each teacher listed served would be a good addition to the article.  Also citations (at least the Arrowheads), for each. Lentower 14:57, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Where known, the years the teachers served are after their names in the Faculty list. RahadyanS 16:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Years Teachers served needed

message: This article could be expanded to cover the entire history of the Schools and education in Brentwood, including:
*schooling in Modern Times
*the octagon school house, and the preservation campaign.
*the history of Brentwood students going to Bay Shore.
*where k-8 students were educated before Village Elementary was built, and then expanded. Lentower 14:57, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree because the article on the high school is long enough. Individual articles on the other schools might be feasible, though. "Schooling in Modern Times" might work as a section of an article on Modern Times. RahadyanS 16:06, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

text: I think the sheer size of the district and its relatively long history might be preclude a single article on the history of education in Brentwood. I think, in a perfect world, different individuals might wish to start their own articles on one or more of the primary or secondary schools they attended. I'm not sure, though, if the interest -- beyond a few people -- is there. I attended the anniversary celebration last Wednesday and more interest seemed to be in what is of immediate benefit to the current students than the institutional history of the school, which is understandable.
