The East Meadow School District’s Board of Education recognized several student-athletes during their April 19 meeting at the Leon J. Campo Salisbury Center.
Kristi Detor, the district’s Director of Physical Education and Medical Services, presented citations to more than a dozen student-athletes from both East Meadow High School and W.T. Clarke High School for earning accolades in their chosen sports.
“Out of the three seasons, winter is one of the most difficult seasons for sports,” Ms. Detor said. “It’s one of the longest seasons, and it’s also grueling once the the sun sets early to stay motivated. It takes a specific kind of student to really participate into that long season and give that commitment and dedication.”
With honors ranging from All-County and All-State, the district commends its student-athletes from the winter season.
