CONGRATULATIONS TO ISABEL DARETANY, ROBERT SITLER MATTHEW BECKER, SIENNA NELSON AND MARK CHOJNACKI.
GOOD LUCK IN HIGH SCHOOL. SO MUCH TALENT! TAKE A LOOK:
Hello, my name is Isabel Daretany. I am graduating from Our Lady Queen of Peace School on Staten Island and I will be attending St. Joseph Hill Academy in the fall. I would like to thank the Steuben Association for the grant I have received. In the fall I plan to run track with my new school, but I am more of an academically oriented person than I am athletically inclined.
I also enjoy reading, drawing and sewing.
Thanks again for the generous grant
you have gifted me.
Many thanks and well wishes,
Isabel Daretany<
Hello my name is Robert Sitler and i am grateful for the steuben association grant. I am graduating from MS67 this year and I will attend Chaminade High School in the fall. I enjoy playing soccer and basketball. I play on 2 soccer teams currently and 1 basketball team. My soccer team for my school is currently first place in the league and we will hopefully win the playoffs. I have been playing soccer since I was
4 years old and basketball since I was 8.
Thank you again for this award.
Hello, my name is Matthew Becker and I want to thank the Steuben Association very much for this grant. I am graduating from Plainedge Middle School. I will be attending Holy Trinity Diocesan High School in fall. I am a multi-sport athlete who loves to play football, lacrosse, wrestling and swim. I look forward to playing soccer and lacrosse in high school. I also love to go fishing with my friends and my dad. I really am grateful for this grant that you awarded me.
With much appreciation,
Matthew Becker
Hello, my name is Sienna Nelson and I am extremely honored to receive the Steuben Association grant. I am graduating from Hewlett Middle School and will be attending Sacred Heart Academy next semester.
I have been taking gymnastics since I was four years old and even though I am in middle school, I have been competing on the Hewlett High School Varsity team for the past two years. I also teach gymnastics to younger kids at the gym I work at on the weekends. During the Summer months, I am a Counselor in Training at Silverpoint Beach club.
Thank you again for this award,
Sienna Nelson
Hello, I am Mark Chojnacki, and I would like to thank the FDNY Steuben Association for awarding me an 8th Grade Grant. I am graduating from Lynbrook South Middle School this month and will be attending Holy Trinity High School in Hicksville in the Fall.
I enjoy playing the drums, though my real passion is sports. I play football, basketball, and baseball. In my two years at Lynbrook our football team never lost a game. I played running back and defensive end. Our baseball team at Lynbrook only lost one game in my two years there, and I play catcher. I also play baseball for the Lynbrook Knights 14U travel team, and our team just won the 2023 Long Island Hot Stove League Championship. In basketball I played for Lynbrook Middle School, St. Raymond’s (East Rockaway) CYO team, and for the Lynbrook Burgers in the
Rockville Centre Summer League.
I’ll miss my friends at Lynbrook but am looking forward to the challenge that lies ahead in high school. Thanks to my dad for nominating me for this award.
In all twelve scholarships were awarded totaling $4,400.00
Our Scholarship Awards program continues to expand and we thank all who have contributed to this noble cause. Our successful fund raisers throughout the year continue to prosper, making it possible to support our future apprentices.
