Monday, Feb. 7: Tightened Security at NHS, Damage at St. Philip Neri, Roof Collapse at Vanderbilt and More

A round up of things to know today.

Yes, it's Monday and that means it's time to pick ourselves up, brush ourselves off and start all over again. 

  1. A reminder that all students must enter via the Laurel Hill Road doors, considered the main entrance to the school. Security will be stepped up following the discovery  on Friday.
  2. Tire tracks on the sidewalk in front of Church and extensive damage to the wrought-iron railings indicate that someone ran off of Main Street  and up the stairs Sunday night during the Super Bowl. It's  not yet clear if it was intentional or an accident. Northport Patch will try to find out what happened from the Northport police department today.
  3. A portion of the Vanderbilt museum's roof collapsed Friday. Director Carol Hart said that the planetarium is not affected, but said some artifacts may be permanently damaged. Northport Patch will get the scoop today.  
  4. Many area kids have participated in the y's Summer Reading Program. Now it has launched a Winter Family Reading Club. Read
  5. Lose a bundle on the game? Feel like it's becoming a problem. A Gambler's Anonymous meeting is scheduled for tonight. See
