Sayville Schools Host Moving-Up Ceremonies

The Sayville Union Free School District recently celebrated four moving up ceremonies to celebrate fifth- and- eighth-grade students moving on to higher levels. Elementary schools Cherry Avenue, Lincoln Avenue, and Sunrise Drive, along with Sayville Middle School, honored students for taking the next steps in their educational journeys.

The ceremonies highlighted academic achievement, with students being honored with certificates marking the end of their journeys in elementary and middle school. Students gave speeches, performed musical numbers, and were presented with awards in front of their family, friends, classmates, teachers, and district administration. Sunrise Drive held their ceremony in their school, Cherry Avenue held theirs at the Old Junior High, and the middle school auditorium hosted the ceremonies for Lincoln Avenue and Sayville Middle School.

“Watching our students reach these important milestones is always a source of tremendous pride,” Dr. Marc Ferris, Superintendent of Schools, said. “I congratulate each of our fifth- and eighth-grade students on their hard work and growth, and I look forward to seeing all they will accomplish as they continue their educational journeys.”
