Fourth and fifth graders participated in the annual Suffolk Zone fit club competition, with students from Norwood Avenue, Pulaski Road and East Northport Middle School placing first out of approximately 60 competing teams. 

The competition brings together students from schools throughout Long Island to Lincoln Avenue school in Sayville for a friendly physical competition. Competing students prepared by joining their schools Fit Club where they practiced various circuits and activities. 

The district had two teams competing. One was comprised of students from Norwood Avenue, Pulaski Road and East Northport Middle, while the other included students from Ocean Avenue, Fifth Avenue and Northport Middle School. Most importantly, all students had a wonderful time. 

Club leader and physical education teacher Stacie Norman said “This competition is very difficult, and we were ecstatic to hear of our 1st place finish. It was nice to see a group pulled from different schools come together to work and support each other as one. All involved should see this as a considerable  accomplishment.”
