The Connetquot Central School District is dedicated to helping our students develop strong emotional and social skills through Emotional Awareness and Social Learning (EASL). EASL helps students understand and manage their emotions, set goals, build self-awareness, improve relationships, and make responsible decisions.

To support this effort, Connetquot is focusing on monthly themes that teach social and emotional awareness. For December, our theme is “Citizenship: Acts of Giving”—encouraging students to practice kindness and community involvement.

We also recognize students who show leadership in these areas. Each month, our schools will nominate students to be featured as Connetquot’s Caring Leaders. These students will receive a certificate and have their framed photo displayed on the Kindness Wall of Fame at Student Services.

Congratulations to our December Caring Leaders:
Roman Bradley (Gr. 8, Ronkonkoma Middle School)
Makayla Dowd (Gr. K, Duffield)
Dylan Getty (Gr. 5, Idle Hour)
Francis Pipino (Gr. K, Bosti)
Parissa Rana (Gr. 10, Connetquot High School)
Gabrielle Takacs (Gr. 4, Sycamore Avenue)
Alesa Wilson (Gr.8, Ronkonkoma Middle School)

Sycamore Avenue fourth graders visited first grade library classes to help them create a digital book using Book Creator! Each student’s digital book entry included a portrait of themselves, a photo of their favorite Thanksgiving food and a voice recording explaining their choice aloud. What a fun and creative way to share stories and celebrate the season!

On Friday, November 8, Connetquot students took part in special assemblies, put on inspiring musical performances, gave dedications, made donations, recited poems, listened to veterans share their experiences and wrote letters to honor our community’s veterans. As a school community, we would like to thank our veterans for their service today and every day!

For Sycamore's Pumpkin Project, each class worked together to decorate a pumpkin! Students, faculty, and staff had the opportunity to place a quarter down to vote for their favorite pumpkin on display. The money raised will be donated to the Tunnels to Towers Foundation on behalf of Sycamore Avenue Elementary School. Afterward, all pumpkins were donated to The Arbors facility in Bohemia for residents to enjoy!
