Hauppauge High School held its Legacy Tree Ceremony on July 1 in the school’s front circle, honoring the classes of 2020 and 2025. As part of a growing tradition, trees were planted and dedicated to each class whose high school experience was impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The district extends its sincere thanks to Mrs. Carmela Primiani and Mrs. Julie Misciagna of the PTSA for leading this meaningful initiative. Gratitude is also extended to the Hauppauge Educational Foundation and its president, Mr. Fred Pitrelli, for their continued generosity and steadfast support of Hauppauge students.
Mr. Pitrelli addressed attendees and, alongside Principal Joe Wieckhorst, took part in the ribbon-cutting for the Class of 2025’s tree. Representing the Class of 2020, graduates Caroline Fortmeyer and Matthew Brophy had the honor of cutting the ribbon for their class’s tree.
