The Connetquot High School athletic department has begun offering an optional athletic training program to allow student-athletes to maintain their skills during the off-season. This program is open to all athletes in grades 9-12 and takes place completely outdoors and in compliance with COVID-19 regulations.

Connetquot Central School District congratulates high school seniors Thomas Ehlers and Connor Hauser, who were recently named Commended Students in the 2021 National Merit Scholarship Program. The students earned this designation by scoring among the top 50,000 of the 1.5 million students who took the 2019 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.

Connetquot High School senior Morgan Elliott was recently presented with the first Tim Bassett Leadership Award by nonprofit organization Athletes Helping Athletes. Elliott earned this award due to her unique ability to utilize the life skills she has developed through sports and for exhibiting the characteristics of a true team player. She also ranks in the top 6% of the senior class, has been a member of the varsity track and basketball teams, and has committed to attend Stony Brook University in fall 2021. Connetquot Central School District proudly congratulates Elliott on her achievements.

For the past 17 summers, Connetquot High School has hosted a marching band camp, under the direction of music department staff Greg Johnson, Vincent Malafronte and Jennifer Bay. Due to social distancing guidelines, this year’s camp could not include instruments nor flags, but, nonetheless, more than 100 students spread out across the football field to diligently practice choreography and marching in unison. “We were so excited to be back together again,” said Johnson. “It was a long six months apart and we are so glad to have had such a great turnout from our wonderful band students.”
