Three Sachem High Schools seniors were named Outstanding Teenagers of America in 1969. It was announced by Sachem High Principal Boris M. Spivack.
Brian Bucalo, Janet E. Lee and Robert Zinser were honored by the Outstanding Americans Foundation and highlighted in the March 1969 issue of “Sachem News.”
Bucalo was president of the National Honor Society and editor of the “Sachem Harbinger,” the now defunct school paper in Sachem.
Lee was a General Organization senator and social chairwoman.
Zinser was a National Merit Scholar and the highest scorer in the history of Sachem on the Regents Scholarship exam at that time.
