Ward Melville Alumni Return To Alma Mater

THREE VILLAGE, NY - From Three Village Central School District: Members of recent graduating classes from Ward Melville High School in the Three Village Central School District returned to their alma mater in December to shed some light on college life and acceptance process for the building’s current students.

During the annual Alumni Day event, the returning Patriots reflected upon their college experiences and shared sound advice with many students currently immersed in the college application and decision process. The alumni spoke about the fears and excitement they faced during their first semesters, how they selected their college and the challenges they encountered when making the transition from high school to college.

Throughout the day, the alumni addressed a number of questions as well. They spoke about their living situations, school size and academic requirements.
