To Our Massapequa Families:
October was an incredibly busy and spirited month for our district! After enduring many raindrops last year, we were blessed with perfect weather for this year’s homecoming celebration. The day kicked off with a wonderful parade through town, leading up to a dominating victory by our Chiefs in the varsity football game. Our talented Pep Band, Varsity and JV Cheer teams, and the MHS Chiefettes delivered incredible performances. It was heartwarming to see so many students and community members decked out in blue and gold, cheering them on.
Leading up to Homecoming, we had a districtwide Spirit Week. Students and staff from all nine buildings enthusiastically participated in our themed dress-up days, showcasing their school spirit.
In October, our girl’s volleyball team made us proud by raising $7,000 for Breast Cancer Awareness Month during their annual Dig Pink event. Lockhart Elementary School students and staff demonstrated their commitment to acceptance, kindness, and inclusion by forming a peace sign for Unity Day. Our Challenger Athletes and their buddies proudly showcased our inclusive sports program at the New York State School Boards Association’s statewide conference.
October also featured School Board Recognition Week. We took the time to honor and recognize Massapequa’s five volunteer trustees through social media posts and a public presentation, celebrating their dedication and hard work.
All of these great events and more are captured in the October edition of the Massapequa Minute and Moment.
