Today, we have a delightful photo submitted by Andrea McCormick-Gilbert (class of 1980). While out dining in Oakdale, Andrea was excited to see someone known as “an institution in Sayville High”, Mr. Thomas Wolf, our beloved music teacher, and band director for 34 years. Thank you for this photo Andrea and it was great to see Mr. Wolf!
Today we have something a little bit different. We have a membership directory that is not from Sayville High, but rather from the First Reformed Church of West Sayville, 52 years ago in 1969. This photo directory was provided courtesy of my dear friend Ann (Van Wyen) “Anky” Fleischmann, class of 1955. It is a wonderful walk down memory lane and contains many, many Sayville High Alumni and also some Sayville High teachers. How many alumni can you spot?
