On Thursday, May 22, 2025, Saltzman East Memorial was a kaleidoscope of patriotism during the epic Heroes Parade! Students swapped their Daler green for a sea of red, white, and blue, saluting our brave first responders and military stars. Rain may have pushed the parade indoors, but it couldn't dampen the electric excitement! Armed with posters, banners, and flags, students and staff united to shower our heroes with heartfelt thanks!

This year, the Farmingdale Friends and Family Team participated in a new event, The Best Buddies Friendship Walk, the premier walk in the nation advocating for inclusion of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The walk took place on Saturday, May 10, at Marjorie Post Park. Our team had sixty walkers and successfully raised over $2,000. Heartfelt appreciation goes to Farmingdale High School senior Julianna DeSantis, who crafted the team’s vibrant shirts, adding a personal touch to the journey.
