Fifth graders across the Connetquot Central School District are preparing to take the next step in their educational journey as they transition to middle school. Throughout June, students from Edward J. Bosti, Cherokee Street, Helen B. Duffield, Idle Hour, John Pearl, Edith L. Slocum, and Sycamore Avenue elementary schools marked this important moment with moving up ceremonies.

Each celebration featured special awards, honoring students for outstanding achievement in academics, music and the arts, physical education, health and other areas. Principals, staff and student speakers took the stage to reflect on the experiences and memories that shaped their elementary school years.

In front of proud families, students received their moving up certificates, symbolizing their elementary school accomplishments and their readiness for the exciting challenges ahead at Oakdale-Bohemia and Ronkonkoma middle schools.
