Members of the Unkechaug Nation visited Center Moriches High School and Middle School for a celebration of song and dance. The exhibition helped students understand more of the Unkechaug Nation culture and the importance of song, dance and the stories behind each style. Additionally, students learned the importance of the drum in each of the songs and how it symbolizes the heart of the Unkechaug people.

The audience was engaged throughout the exhibition and excited to watch those on stage, several of whom are their own classmates in Center Moriches.

Ninth graders at Center Moriches High School connected with professionals from a variety of industries during the Growth Career Round Table Event on April 18. Fifteen local businesses and organizations engaged with students to answer questions about their respective fields and job qualifications.

Students were grouped together at tables as professionals rotated through every 10 minutes. The ninth graders followed a list of guiding questions about what training or education is required for their job, what everyday skills are used and what advice the professionals would give to someone looking to get into their industry.

Center Moriches High School partnered with CEO Works to host the event. It allowed students to connect their classroom experiences to real-world work opportunities.
