Kaleidoscope is proud to present our final print edition of the school year: a celebration of our school, and especially our graduating class, this year. You can read the edition online HERE.
The edition is also mailed to the households of every Ward Melville student and distributed in the building. Thank you to all of the parents who supported their children and the newspaper through their generous purchase of senior congratulations, and thank to the Long Island Youth Development and Ben’s Garden for their support of the newspaper through advertisements. We truly hope you enjoy reading.
In this edition, our new principal reflected on his first year leading Ward Melville; we covered significant district issues such as budget changes, restructuring and armed guards; we celebrated the successes of talented students and clubs; and we honored every member of the graduating class of 2025.
