The Three Village School District is pleased to announce that 14 Ward Melville High School students were named National Merit Semifinalists in the 67th annual National Merit Scholarship Program competition. Each of these students will continue to compete for one of 7,500 National Merit Scholarships, which total more than $30 million, with winners to be announced later this spring.

These talented students entered the competition by taking the 2020 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). The nationwide pool of semifinalists represents 1% of U.S. high school seniors and includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state.

The district congratulates the following students on this outstanding academic accomplishment and extends best wishes for success moving forward in the competition.

American flags blanketed the school grounds throughout the Three Village Central School District as students and staff members prepared to mark the 20th anniversary of 9/11. In classrooms and throughout school buildings, moments of silence and grade appropriate conversations transpired about the significance of the day and the importance of remembering those lives lost and the lives of all who came to help that day.

At Nassakeag and Minnesauke elementary schools, students also “planted” hundreds of small American flags around the school’s flagpole and surrounding grounds. As the flags waved in the warm September breeze they served as a visual reminder about the importance of the day.

The district’s students and staff members officially kicked off the 2021-2022 school year on Thursday, Sept. 9. From the youngest pre-k students to the Ward Melville High School senior Class of 2022, an excitement for being back in school was evident throughout all district buildings!
