Long Beach Middle School recently partnered with the Long Beach Latino Civic Association (LBLCA) on a Seedling Project funded by a grant from New York State.  This meaningful opportunity was brought to the district by Helen Dorado Alessi, Director of the LBLCA. It was the perfect project for eighth-grade English as a New Language (ENL) students to work on as part of the IB Middle Years Program (MYP) community project. The community project provides an important opportunity for students ages 13-14 to collaborate and pursue service learning. 

After the students showcased their research, the project culminated with a hands-on community planting event. Families joined in the celebration, and after the planting activities were completed, the LBLCA hosted lunch for all attendees.

LBMS Students Connect with Astronauts in Space

Long Beach Middle School sixth grade students gathered in the school’s auditorium on May 20 to participate in a once in a lifetime opportunity, a live NASA Downlink event.

A NASA Downlink is a unique educational program where astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) connect with students on Earth. As part of this event, astronauts answered pre-recorded questions from the Long Beach sixth grade students live from space. It was an unforgettable moment, as the voices of our young learners echoed across the cosmos, sparking curiosity and inspiration for all in attendance.

"The success of this event is a testament to the incredible dedication and teamwork of our students and teachers, who spend a lot of time preparing and filming their questions,” said Long Beach Director of Science PK-12 Cristie Tursi. “Their excitement, commitment, and passion for science and space exploration were truly on display.”

Special thanks to Long Beach science educators Julie Brodsky, Liz Chimienti, Regina Dean, Caroline Espinet, Natasha Nurse, Rich Pellegrini and Patty Van Loon whose tireless efforts helped guide this initiative from concept to reality. Additionally with appreciation and much gratitude to the LBMS Administration, Faculty, and Staff, whose support was vital in making this project possible.
