Miller Place School District Welcomes Students Back for the 2026–2027 School Year

The Miller Place School District enthusiastically welcomed back students across its four schools on Wednesday, September 2, launching the 2026–2027 school year with a sense of excitement, optimism and anticipation for the year ahead.

“The beginning of a new school year is always a special time, and it is especially meaningful for me as I begin my first year with the Miller Place School District,” said Dr. Marc Ferris, Superintendent of Schools. “It was incredibly exciting to welcome our students back and see the enthusiasm throughout our schools. I am grateful to join such a dedicated community of educators, staff, families, and students, and I look forward to working together to make the 2026–2027 school year a year filled with learning, growth, and success.”

The opening day was filled with smiles, reunions, and the excitement that comes with beginning a new chapter. At Andrew Muller Primary School and Laddie A. Decker Sound Beach School, students arrived ready to begin the year, greeted by District administrators, principals, teachers, and staff. The warm welcome helped set the stage for a year centered on learning and building meaningful connections.

At North Country Road Middle School and Miller Place High School, students reunited with friends and educators, navigated their schedules and settled into the rhythms of a new academic year. With a renewed focus and enthusiasm, students across the District began the 2026–2027 school year ready to embrace new challenges, opportunities, and experiences.
