Girls Varsity Soccer: Bethlehem Center vs. Carlynton (at Honus Wagner on 09/16/2019)


On  Monday, September 16, I got to watch your Carlynton Girls Varsity soccer team,
coached by Andy Bogats, earn a huge win against a non-section team, Bethlehem Center.
The first half of the game seemed to play out very simply with no score from either team,
although the teams fought hard for it.

Your Cougars played a strong defense as Senior Captains, Anya Carrasco and Olivia Robb,
worked with Kira Hill (Junior), and Audrey Robb (Sophomore), to help keeper,
Sara Macmurdo (Junior), who prevented Bethlehem Center from scoring. 

It seemed as though the girls’ half-time break invoked a sense of determination, as they
scored 2 goals in the second half of the game. The first goal of the game was scored by 
Freshman, Mikayla Walker, with a set shot from out past the eighteen; the second and
final goal of the night was scored by Senior Captain, Savannah Sevacko, as she ensured
another victory for your Lady Cougars.

Way to go, Ladies!  We’re excited for the rest of the season!

Fashion Bash

Junior Martial Delrosario styles a short, black dress at Carlynton’s second annual Fashion Bash.  On the 29th of February, Carlynton held its second annual Fashion Bash. The Fashion Bash had dual purposes- to raise funds for Prom, and to showcase various styles one might choose to  wear to prom. It was held from seven to nine in the Shop. The main event was the fashion show, where for a total of  about 30 minutes 44 dresses and nine suits were modelled . In addition, some girls modelled hair styles with more casual dresses. This served to advertise Dani's Hair Loft. Many of the dresses modelled were donated , but seven were rented from David’s Bridal. The suits modelled came from Men’s Warehouse. Jewelry, made by Paparazzi Independent Consultant, nails from Color Street , and flowers from Bella Flora Shoppe were also shown .  The emcees of the evening were Alaiyah Burks, Erin Fox , and Savannah Sevacko . They described the styles of the evening. ...

Elective Highlight: Peer-to-Peer Creative Expression

Last semester, I took Peer-to-Peer Creative Expression. It was an art class with Mrs. Vayanos , where older students worked with peers from the Mr. Zebrasky ’s special education class to express themselves creatively and build artistic skills.  The class pulled a variety of mediums for the projects, and weeks were “themed.” For instance, one week was themed with leaves, and for a project we went outside and  collected leaves for leaf rubbings. We also cut large leaves out of watercolor paper and used watercolors to paint them. Occasionally, the class would set up scavenger hunts around the school, so that week we went around and  collected paper leaves. At the end, we went downstairs to Mr. Z’s showcase and pinned the leaves to a paper tree. As 3-dimensional projects were popular, we also borrowed projects from different classes. We spent a few weeks using clay to make the themed mugs from the Creativity and Innovation curriculum, which sparked a...

Bocce Tournament

Last week, Carlynton hosted a Bocce Tournament between themselves and Baldwin High School. The teams were made up of special education students, as well as additional high school students from their respective schools. For those who don’t know, bocce is an Italian version of bowling, with long, thin courts. The game begins by rolling a small ball, known as a polina , down the court.  Then teams take turns rolling larger balls, trying to be the closest to polina . At the end of a round, the team who rolls the larger balls closest to the polina gains a point of points. The match happened in the gym here at Carlynton during school hours, and students were visibly excited. It made for an exciting but friendly competition. Mrs. Chenette also brought the girls ensemble to sing the national anthem as the opening for the event. I spoke with James Lukaszewicz during the event, and he thought it was a great experience. He got involved because he enjoys working with students fr...
