    We are continuing to collect articles about BOCES and hope to publish them next month. Please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots.

We thought that with the opening of the school year upon us, you would enjoy this reprint of an article by Ron Wencer about Hicksville building a new high school in 1925.

I enjoy reading the newsletter about the "good old days" in Hicksville. I found out about HixNews when Norman Reid (class of 63) sent the link to me.

After graduating from HHS, I attended Nassau Community College and than continued on to Morehead State University in Kentucky. In the late sixties, I started teaching Physical Education in a Catholic school in Hicksville. Then, in 1973, I joined the Nassau County Police Department and did thirty years and retired in 2003. I've been retired for nine years now and enjoying every moment of it.

Presently, I live in Freeport, N.Y. and have been here since 1977. My wife, Patricia and I have been married since 1974 and have raised two daughters, Kimberly, who is a hair dresser and Kathleen who is a school teacher in the NYC school system. I also have two Grandsons, 2 and 4 who live close by and take up most of our time.

I've lost contact with a lot of my friends back in Hicksville, but the newsletter helps bring back the memories. Keep up the good work.
