The Mamaroneck School District is fortunate to have Sheldrake Environmental Center as its partner in outdoor education. School excursions in May have focused on ponding and the study of organisms found in the water, among other activities. Students are able to explore and observe their discoveries up close using microscopes.
ENGAGE. EMPOWER. INSPIRE.

Hommocks Middle School Students Exhibit Artwork at One River School
Sharing art in the community: Hommocks Middle School Art students were a big hit at the opening of the One River School Hommocks Art Exhibition in Larchmont. This exhibit, which features selected work by students in grades 6-8, will be on display through this Wednesday May 25th.
Meet MHS's Class of '22 Valedictorian & Salutatorian
MHS seniors Lain Brewer and Allison Hecht received the exciting news that they are the valedictorian and salutatorian, respectively, of Mamaroneck High School’s class of 2022. Ms. Clain recognized Lain and Allison for their academic performances, but even more importantly, for their well-rounded contributions to MHS and the broader Larchmont-Mamaroneck community, as well as their proven track record of being “stand-up human beings.”
Lain is President of the Computer Science Club, Head Sound Operator for Crew, and a member of the Gender and Sexuality Alliance (GSA). Allison plays the cello in both the MHS orchestra and chamber orchestra and volunteers with String Buddies, where she teaches private lessons to other students. She also participates in the high school’s Original Civic Research and Action (OCRA) program.
We look forward to their speeches at graduation!
Mancave? A Look at the Work of our First Place Winners from Recent FBLA State Conference
Mamaroneck High School’s Josie Zevin and Paisley Flamenbaum are two of the 58 MUFSD students who returned earlier this month from participating in the annual Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) State Leadership Conference in Rochester, NY. Josie and Paisley took 1st Place after presenting their work in the Publication Design category. The challenge they were addressing was to create the logo and branding for a new men’s clothing store-including a variety of promotional materials such as print advertisements, store signage, logo stickers, and store clothing tags. Check out their presentation here.
“In a world, where thanks to COVID-19, corporate is becoming slightly more casual, and suits and ties are being paired with sweatpants (as Zoom can only capture so much), we envisioned a line of quality and high end loungewear that is perfect for sitting back on your couch but also stylish enough to present yourself in front of a big meeting,” Josephine said.
