Students at Miller Avenue School had a fun and interactive assembly program when they were visited by members of the High School’s theater class. “Safe Halloween” was an informative production that highlighted some important trick-or-treating tips for the younger students.

The High School students wrote scenes, improvised and rehearsed their skits on topics such as not entering someone’s home while trick-or-treating, using flashlights and other safety measures after dark, having treats inspected before eating and being mindful of what tricks are not appropriate. After each skit, they asked the younger students what was wrong with their scene and the many helpful responses urged them to revisit their act for a more positive result.

This rewarding opportunity for general education and special education students to collaborate and develop social, public speaking and performance skills. Shoreham-Wading River High School teacher Mary Hygom, who serves as director of the annual performance, shared her pride in another successful performance.

The School District thanks all the students, Mr. Millheiser, Ms. Gould and Mrs. Hygom for making this annual event such a success!
