Northport-East Northport Union Free School District - Facilities

Facilities

The district includes one high school, Northport High School, two middle schools, East Northport Middle School and Northport Middle School, and six elementary schools: Bellerose Elementary School, Dickinson Avenue Elementary School, Fifth Avenue Elementary School, Norwood Avenue School, Ocean Avenue School, and Pulaski Road School. The district office is at William J. Bronsan School (previously known as Laurel Avenue School), named after the retired Superintendent of Schools William J. Bronsan

Students K-5 will either attend Bellerose, Dickinson Avenue, Fifth Avenue, Nortwood, Ocean, or Pulaski Elementary Schools, depending on where they live. Students from Dickinson, Norwood, and Ocean Avenue attend Northport Middle School for Grades 6-8, whereas students from Pulaski and Fifth Avenue attend East Northport Middle School for grades 6-8. Half of the Bellerose population goes to Northport, and half goes to East Northport. All students in the district attend Northport High School, which offers a large variety of elective programs and the IB and AP programs.

At one time, the discrict contained seven elementary schools, three middle schools, and one high school. However, Larkfield School and Middleville Road Middle School were eventually closed (although the Middleville Road Campus was still used, whereas the Larkfield Campus was sold). The Larkfield School was closed due to declining enrollment, and has been subsequently made into a retirement home.

The Laurel Avenue building still functions as the district office, and occasionally hosts field trips by other schools in the district.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:

    I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
