Dear Friends, 

Sadly, the family of Michael Riccio, a fourth grade student of our drama program, experienced a house fire on January 24 that resulted in the complete loss of their home and ALL its contents.  Let's show our support and help our friends through this difficult transition by giving them the best chance possible at a successful new beginning. 

We are grateful that Michael and his family are safe, and offer our heartfelt condolences on the loss of their dog Rex.  

Many thanks to the dedicated members of the West Islip Fire Department for their valiant efforts.

Stay safe and thank you,

Robin and Danielle
