Whiz Kid: Josh Cohen

New feature will honor the top students in the Bellmore community.

Our first Whiz Kid is Kennedy senior Josh Cohen!

  • Name: Josh Cohen
  • Age: 17
  • School: Kennedy High School
  • Accomplishment: 2011 Intel Science Talent Search semifinalist
  • Key to Awesomeness: Josh's love for learning has helped propel him to numerous awards and honors. His love for science earned him the prestigious honor of being an Intel semifinalist.

Know a great kid who made Eagle Scout or did your local soccer team take the
championship? They may be our next Patch Whiz Kid honoree.

Each week, Bellmore Patch will seek suggestions from readers for individual kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Patch Whiz Kid.
