LVMS Italian students make their own pizza at Ralph's in Bayville.

As an extension of their classroom lessons, Locust Valley Middle School sixth grade Italian students took a field trip to Ralph’s Pizza and Restaurant in Bayville on March 16.

Accompanied by Italian teachers Eleonora Aiello, Mariantonia Angelo and Melissa Caravello, the 40 students enjoyed learning how to prepare pizza dough, spread the sauce and cheese and evenly apply toppings. Students even had the chance to eat the pizza they prepared and enjoyed fresh zeppoles for dessert courtesy, of owner Pasquale Delprete. 

The school’s seventh and eighth grade Italian classes will also be visiting the pizzeria in the coming weeks.
