One of the most coveted distinctions an athlete can attain, is to perform to the highest level, not just on the field, but in the classroom as well. The Amityville A t h l e t i c s Department has strict standards that determine if a student is eligible to participate on a district team, however New York State standards for athletic excellence are even more stringent. The State awards the honor of Scholar Athlete Team to any group of players who maintain a cumulative team average over 90 percent. The district is pleased to announce that for the first time in almost a decade, two of its teams, girls volleyball, coached by Howard Reiner, and girls tennis, coached by Rich Pelligrino, won New York State Scholar Athlete Team Awards, each with a cumulative average over 90 percent.
