Manhasset is very proud of one of its own, Kadeem Howell, a Manhasset High School and Adventures in Learning graduate.
Diana Holden, executive director of Adventures in Learning, announced that Howell was selected by the Buffalo Bills medical staff as a physical therapy intern for their summer training camp and the preseason.
He recently graduated with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT) from Long Island University Brooklyn. His goal is to work in an orthopedic outpatient clinic in Manhattan.
He also received a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Biology from the State University of New York at Albany, having majored and minored in this area of study.
Holden noted that “Kadeem was a wonderful student at Adventures and a terrific role model for our students. We believe that as a Doctorate recipient, he symbolizes everything Adventures stands for in terms of academic achievement and individual development. We are extremely proud of his accomplishments and are thrilled that he is interning with the Buffalo Bills this summer.”
Founded 47 years ago by the Congregational Church in Manhasset, Adventures in Learning is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization. It is an after-school education and enrichment program, located in the Hagedorn Community Center at the Manhasset/Great Neck EOC building at 65 High St. in Manhasset, dedicated to improving the lives of children in Manhasset and Great Neck.
