Yes. My high school math teacher had a tremendous impact on my life. Mr. Michael Cohen is still a trusted mentor and friend.

Bay Shore provided me the opportunity for a well-rounded education that led to a life-long love of learning.

Is there anything else you would like to share with us about your time in Bay Shore or your life after graduation?
I am very grateful for the doors that opened for me and for my daughters because of the education that we received in the Bay Shore School ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ. I encourage our Bay Shore families to remain active participants in a district that can provide all children with the opportunity to achieve success after high school.
