With so many local residents and families devastated by Hurricane Sandy, Elmont High School hosted a pasta dinner to raise funds and bring community members together. On. Nov. 13, the Elmont faculty hosted the dinner in the school’s cafeteria and accepted monetary donations rather than clothing or food. Elmont students also lent a hand with members of the Elmont Key Club serving food to those in attendance. Faculty members brought their families to dine with students and local families alike.

It’s certainly no secret that attorneys approach their work differently, but these differences have rarely been described systematically. Steno has developed the Attorney Work Styles framework to help attorneys understand how they naturally process information, respond to pressure and execute their work. The result is better individual performance and smoother collaboration.
