| ELL students finish program
DALLASTOWN SCHOOLS — The Dallastown Area School District recently finished its summer program for English Language Learner students and their parents. Instructional Program Specialist Alma Row said 13 students, from first grade through high school, and two parents participated in the week-long program. The program helps the students and their parents to connect with the community and increase communication skills in English, Row said. The group took a virtual road trip through the United States to have a greater understanding of the country, she said. The trip started in York County and went to Philadelphia, St. Louis, San Francisco, New Orleans and Washington, D.C. Google Earth, literature, games and cooking were incorporated in the activities. "It was tons of fun," Row said.

A Life-long Passion for Food
While some school children enjoy skateboarding, video games, or dancing, Gino Arcuri always loved cooking. Gino grew up in New York where he worked in his father's deli. “My father [Guy] owned a deli and I used to love going there and helping when I was very little. I got the love for food from him. He taught me the way. He was a hard worker and a smart man," says Gino. “He was known as the cheesecake king and because of him I love making cheesecake. The last thing we did together was make a metropolitan cheesecake." With his initial interest in food inspired by his father, Gino pursued his love when his family moved to Florida. “When I was 18 we moved to Florida and I started working at hotels. We did a lot of banqueting and one of our biggest events was the Harley Davidson convention," says Gino.
