High School Administration
Welcome students, parents, teachers, community members and friends to the Plainedge High School website. We have worked diligently to provide you with all the essential information and resources you may need to be an informed, productive member of the Plainedge community. Plainedge High School has developed a reputation as a high-achieving, high-performing school. Our students take rigorous course-loads and participate in our many extra-curricular and athletic activities. We never forget, however, that we are dealing with young people with unique individual needs. I think it is our ability to provide a high level education for all, while still focusing on the individual needs of the many that has led to our success. The collaborative relationship we’ve developed among our many stakeholders is invaluable and we will continue to value and foster these relationships.
Included on the school website are links to our student data management system, Powerschool. With this tool, parents and students can maintain a dialogue with teachers regarding areas of strength and need. You will also find links regarding scheduling, our code of conduct, bullying, daily news, faculty contacts, and other useful information.A strong partnership between parents/guardians, students, community members and the high school is essential in order to ensure that Plainedge continues to experience success.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at (516) 992-7565 or our guidance counselors or teachers, whose contact information you will find in our staff directory.
