🌱Three Village Daily: Students Honored With Biliteracy + TVHS Exhibit

Hey, neighbors! It's me, Debora Whitehead, your host of the Daily. Here's what you need to know about what's happening locally.

First, today's weather:

A passing morning shower. High: 79, low: 62.

Here are the top 5 stories today in Three Village:

1. Ward Melville High School students were awarded the coveted Seal of Biliteracy. The honors were a result of their dedication to studying foreign languages in their senior year. (Three Village School District)
   
2. Let the flowers bloom in your yard with Pollinator Gardens. Emma S. Clark Memorial Library will host a virtual class for those interested in learning about what it takes to create a perfect pollinator-friendly habitat. The event starts at 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 16. (ESCM Library)
3. Three Village Historical Society has an online exhibit about the history of Chicken Hill. The materials can be downloaded directly from the website, with rich content on how important the community was in the mid-19th century. (TVHS)
4. Missy, the cat, is waiting for a lovely family to take her home! She is a housetrained and spayed adult cat. She is waiting for adoption at the Wing And A Prayer Animal Rescue, located at 1110 NY 112 in Port Jefferson Station. (Port Jefferson Patch)
5. New jobs are on the horizon around the Three Village area. Look at Patch's list of the latest opportunities for employment in Suffolk County. (Three Village Patch)

• Stony Brook School of Communication and Journalism: "We are now hiring someone to help us with recruitment and outreach for our undergraduate and graduate programs.
