SSCM Graduates - Where are they now: Peter Liegey

Class of 2016’s Peter Liegey has likely run out of space on his walls for all the honors, awards and scholarships he received as he exited the hallowed halls of Saints Cyril and Methodius upon graduating. Always an active student, Peter participated in School Band, Long Island Honor Band, SSCM Cross Country and Basketball teams, was a member of the Distinguished Scholars program, Gifted and Talented program, and the Shakespeare Festival performances each year.

Within the parish, Peter has been an Altar Server, was active in the CYO Travel and Intramural basketball teams. He coached and refereed in the CYO Intramural Basket-ball program, volunteered at SSCM’s Family Festival, Breakfast with Santa and even worked in the kitchen during SSCM Bingo nights. Adding to his already busy schedule, Peter played Flag Football with the Knights of Columbus and baseball with Deer Park’s Little League Team. It’s no surprise that a young man who can juggle this much at once managed to earn an SSCM Parents Association Scholarship, the Ryan T. Horodnicki Memorial Scholarship, an SSCM Senior Club Scholarship and based on his performance on Co-Op testing, he claimed a St. John the Baptist Scholar Incentive Award. Ever grateful for his days at SSCM, Peter is enjoying his first year at St. John the Baptist High School this fall and we wish him every blessing for continued success!
