What do a seventh-grade varsity tennis player, a peer tutor and a three-sport participant have in common?

They are just a few of the exceptional students from our district who will be featured on the Spotlight on Long Island Schools show on LI News Radio, 103.9 FM, to air on Saturday, March 3, at 10:30 a.m.

Hosted by Robert Vecchio, the question-and-answer format, 30-minute show highlighted the varied accomplishments of these students as well as mentioned the high school’s designation as a Blue Ribbon School this academic year.
