The Wantagh School District showcased two newly renovated art rooms at its middle school during a visit by New York State Sen. John Brooks on Oct. 4. Sen. Brooks secured $684,000 in state municipal grant funding for the district.
This past summer, two art rooms were completely refurbished with new ceilings and lighting, floors, cabinets and counters, electronic display boards and tables and chairs. The lightweight tables are on wheels and can easily be moved to create different seating arrangements.
Wantagh School District officials talked with Mr. Brooks about the upgrades to two middle school art rooms.
In the summer of 2023, the district is planning to use the rest of the grant money to renovate two science rooms – one each at the middle school and high school.
Welcoming Sen. Brooks were Board of Education President Laura Reich, Superintendent John McNamara, Assistant Superintendent for Business Anthony Cedrone, Director of Fine Arts and Performing Arts Kelly Jones, Director of Facilities Thomas Fucci, middle school Principal Anthony Ciuffo, Assistant Principal Rachel Quattrocchi and art teacher Jaclyn Gentilesco.
