CHS freshman Sarah G. is Suffolk County’s Teen Poet Laureate — only the second student ever to hold that title.

Three years ago, county legislators created the role for a student to spearhead opportunities to bring poetry by and for young residents into the community as a positive force.

While enrolled in the CHS English elective Writer's Workshop, Sarah completed her application material for the Suffolk County Teen Poet Laureate Contest. The entry packet included a letter of recommendation, a curriculum vitae documenting leadership and civic engagement, and a portfolio of three poems, each no longer than 60 lines.

As a finalist, Sarah attended an interview panel. And on May 1, she sat before the legislature to confirm her appointment.

On June 1, she will attend an event at the Walt Whitman Birthplace Center to celebrate the beginning of her term.

CHS student Morgan V. received a big-time honor on Monday night for her command of the law during the 2024 High School Mock Trial Competition and Program.

Morgan received the Outstanding Student Attorney Award for her showing throughout the New York State Bar Association/Suffolk Academy of  Law-sponsored competition.

Justice John J. Leo nominated Morgan for the award, stating that throughout his entire career as an adjudicator and a justice, he had never seen a student attorney present herself in such a professional manner, and with such an intense understanding of the law and its implications.

A pair of Commack High School students wowed VIPs in the audience during their winter performances in “Mamma Mia.”

Dara G. and Julia L. have been invited to represent CHS at the prestigious Roger Rees Awards for Excellence in Student Performance workshop. They will have the opportunity to work with Broadway actors and musicians and receive constructive critiques.

The top 50 students at the workshop will be invited to the Jimmy Awards on June 24 at Broadway’s Minskoff Theatre. That event recognizes high school theatre achievers nationwide.

More than two dozen former Jimmy Award winners as high school students currently are on Broadway or on Broadway national tours.

Dara and Julia were selected by a committee that came to view CHS’ “Mamma Mia” production.

CHS junior Camryn H. has produced an award-winning photograph.Camryn, who is taking digital photography, won first place for her “Something Blue" submission in the annual Huntington Camera Club high school competition.

High school students from throughout Huntington township and beyond compete in several categories for recognition and awards. Since its inception in 1991, the event has grown. It now regularly receives more than 800 annual submissions.

The reception and award ceremony will take place on Tuesday evening at the Huntington Library.

Congratulations to Mehek S. who was one of 20 LI students who were selected as National Finalists in the annual Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair. Mehek's journey began months ago as she developed her microbiology research project and competed with other students from across the island. She qualified after recently placing first at the Long Island Science & Engineering Fair. We wish Mehek all the best as she heads to Los Angeles in mid May to compete. This is quite an impressive accomplishment and kudos to the CHS Science Research Team of Jeanette Collette, Dr. Daniel Kramer, Andrea Beatty, and our Science Director, Ms. Laura Longo.
