Levittown Elementary Students Look Towards the Future

Elementary school students throughout the Levittown School District celebrated their academic successes during their primary years of education, and now look toward a future of new beginnings at Jonas Salk and Wisdom Lane middle schools. 

As part of the moving up tradition, Abbey Lane, East Broadway, Gardiners Avenue, Lee Road, Northside, and Summit Lane elementary schools recognized the exemplary students with a host of awards during their respective ceremonies.

Each of the principals and honored guests dispensed words of wisdom, while middle school Principals John Avena and John Zampaglione gave words of encouragement about moving up to the next stage of their educational careers.

“If you need help, our doors are always open to make you feel comfortable,” Mulligan advised the students during Lee Road School’s moving up ceremony.

Board of Education President Michael Pappas and Town of Hempstead Councilman Gary Hudes both encouraged the students to become involved in the middle schools’ array of clubs and intramural sports teams. 

After the ceremonial speeches, the students were called to the podium one by one to receive their certificates. The students then joined family and friends for refreshments, where they personally thanked their teachers and said goodbye to classmates for the summer recess.
