Thirteen William Floyd High School student-artists were recently invited to attend the New York State Art Teachers Association’s (NYSATA) first-ever “All Island” workshop at Babylon High School! This group of talented juniors and seniors earned their invitations by receiving a ranking of “Distinguished with Mastery” on their NYSATA Portfolio adjudication last spring. In this inaugural workshop, student-artists had the opportunity to work with accomplished artist Andres Gallardo.

The William Floyd School District recently hosted the Tri Hamlet 250 Committee along with state, county and town elected officials, and other dignitaries to mark the 291^st anniversary of the birth of William Floyd, one of just 56 men to sign the Declaration of Independence.
