In preparation for Port Jefferson’s Homecoming game on Saturday, Oct. 22, the varsity cheerleaders, along with coach Sharon Gatz, hosted a cheerleading clinic for students in grades 1-6.

More than 30 students attended the clinic on Thursday, Oct. 20, where they learned an exciting cheerleading routine. The cheer clinic attendees will show off their skills with a performance during halftime of this weekend’s Homecoming football game.

“The cheer clinic was a great idea of Coach Sharon,” athletic director Adam Sherrard said. “It helped promote the cheer program, fostered relationships between students of different ages in the school district and will add to the positive environment of Homecoming.”

Patriot pride was on display at Ward Melville High School’s homecoming on Oct. 8.

The festivities began on Oct. 7 in the afternoon when Ward Melville students gathered for a pep rally ahead of the big game. The excitement carried over into the weekend and the high school grounds became a sea of green and gold as students, staff and community members came together for the annual homecoming carnival.

Before the Patriots took the field for kick off, each of the district’s elementary schools paraded into the stadium holding their banners proudly, which followed the theme, “A New Beginning.” At halftime, it was announced that Minnesauke Elementary School won the banner contest. The halftime celebrations also included performances from the marching band and cheerleading team.

To cap off the day, the Ward Melville Patriots came out victorious against the Riverhead Blue Waves with a final score of 48-0. The event brought the Three Village community together for a well-celebrated homecoming.
