Wantagh Elementary School

Throwback Thursday - These little guys...the quails, not the kids, finally made it out of the incubator safely back in May and were eventually released by professionals into the wilderness. Take a look at the 2025 release of Bobwhite Quail release into Brookhaven State Park.

Wantagh Elementary celebrated Flag Day with their student-studded signature flash mob choreographed dance to Proud to be an American, Miley Cyrus’ Party in the USA, and Katy Perry’s Fireworks turning the front lawn of the school red, white, and blue, as family and friends looked on.

Just after the audience recited the Pledge of Allegiance, Taps was played by three band students who did an amazing job. The second grade chorus, adorned in custom made flag t-shirts, sang special patriotic songs for the audience, including God Bless America and the States Song also known as Fifty Nifty United States.

Whether it’s the student’s first or final Field Day, it’s always the best day of the school year. The day was a gorgeous sunny day filled with clear blue skies. The students at Wantagh Elementary School marched across the street to the baseball fields when the excitement of the day hit, resulting in skipping and running towards their first fun station.
