Assemblyman Ed Flood (R,C-Port Jefferson) recently sponsored a 'There Ought To Be A Law' contest for students in the 4th Assembly District. This week, Flood hosted a ceremony to recognize the creativity and participation of students at Terryville Road Elementary School in the Comsewogue School District.

Avery Parker, a 5th-grade student, won the challenge with her innovative proposal and was awarded an official Assembly Citation. "I want to congratulate Avery for winning with the most creative proposal," said Flood. "Her idea is to enhance protection and security on major social media sites by prohibiting them from requesting personal information. This is a major concern that needs to be addressed."

Flood further commended Parker's efforts, stating, "Avery’s hard work is truly inspiring, and I commend her and the other 140 students who also participated and submitted wonderful ideas." He also expressed gratitude towards Superintendent Joe Coniglione, Teacher Ms. Reduto, and Principal Annemarie V. Sciove for nurturing such incredible talent.
