Assembly Resolution No. 548

BY: M. of A. Gonzalez-Rojas

 HONORING the Lexington School for the Deaf upon
 the occasion of hosting its 28th Annual Basketball
 Classic vs. Assembly/Senate All-Stars on May 20,
 2025

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize and
commend those institutions of true purpose and high achievement whose
exemplary programs and accomplishments clearly demonstrate an enduring
pursuit of excellence in the education of deaf youth in the Empire
State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
the Lexington School for the Deaf upon the occasion of hosting its 28th
Annual Basketball Classic to be held at the Kipp Tech Valley Charter
School Gymnasium on Tuesday, May 20, 2025; and

 WHEREAS, This annual contest will feature the Lexington School for
the Deaf versus the Assembly and Senate All-Stars; and

 WHEREAS, The Lexington School for the Deaf was founded in 1864 when
the first class of six children and an instructor was convened at the
home of Isaac and Hannah Rosenfeld; and

 WHEREAS, Due to constantly increasing enrollment, the school moved
several times until it settled in 1882, at 904 Lexington Avenue with 161
students; in 1934, it officially became the Lexington School for the
Deaf; and

 WHEREAS, The Lexington School for the Deaf continued to grow and in
1968, its new home was inaugurated on a six-acre site at 30th Avenue and
75th Street in Jackson Heights, Queens; and

 WHEREAS, Today, the Lexington School for the Deaf, with a student
body of over 250 children, from infants through high school seniors, is
the largest school for the deaf in New York State, and its student body
resides throughout the five boroughs of New York City and adjacent
counties; and

 WHEREAS, A charter member of the 4201 Association, New York
State-supported private schools for disabled children, the Lexington
School for the Deaf houses the only high school in New York City under
the auspices of the 4201 charter; and

 WHEREAS, In addition to its strong academic program, the Lexington
School for the Deaf offers a broad range of physical and cultural
education programs, including highly regarded basketball teams; and

 WHEREAS, In 1995, Joseph Crowley, a former member of the New York
State Assembly representing the Lexington School for the Deaf,
established the Lexington School versus the New York State Legislature
Basketball Game; and

 WHEREAS, It is the practice of this Legislative Body to extend its
highest commendation to all the individuals who have been involved with
the Lexington School for the Deaf, past and present, noting the
importance of their work and their enduring commitment to deaf children;
now, therefore be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor the Lexington School for the Deaf upon the occasion of hosting its
28th Annual Basketball Classic; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution, suitable engrossed, be
transmitted to Seth Bravin, Interim CEO/Superintendent; Maria Noto, CFO;
Jane Moran, Special Assistant to the CEO/Superintendent; Carlos
Aponte-Salcedo, Jr., Director of Student & Family Engagement; Cindy S.
Casson, Director, Community Relations; N
