Students at Lynbrook High School in the Lynbrook Public School District launched a new school store, dubbed The Owl’s Nest, on April 28.

For the past few months, students in Annie McKenna’s Career Development Program and Kathleen Scorcia’s Personal Finance class have been working collaboratively to open the store. Students used the Cricut craft machine to make customized Lynbrook logos for plastic tumblers and keychains with the assistance of CDP aide Debbie Geiser. The Owl’s Nest also sells popular Lynbrook swag, including hooded sweatshirts, t-shirts, drawstring backpacks and folders.

During the grand opening, the store sold over $300 in merchandise. Career Development students in both classes will be responsible for tracking inventory and sales to see what items were the big sellers and will need to be replenished.

The Owl’s Nest is looking to expand its merchandise and staff for the upcoming school year. Any student interested in working in the school store should reach out to Annie McKenna or Kathleen Scorcia.
