Today in Sachem:
From my notebook:
- Sachem Schools: At its Feb. 8 meeting, the Sachem Board of Education established the creation of the Harrison Frisenda Memorial Scholarship. Harrison Frisenda was a Waverly Elementary School student who was described as someone with “a kind personality, a caring personality and a wonderful smile that lit up a room.” (Facebook)
Alrighty, you're all caught up for today! I'll see you soon.
