JERICHO, NY -- On Tuesday, March 16th, students from the middle and high schools will experience Diversity Day in efforts to broaden their perspectives about the increasingly diverse world in which they live. Spoken word, dance, and art will highlight the show.

Parents, students, and community members are cordially welcomed to our first ever Diversity Night performance that same evening at 7pm in the HS audiotirum.
