On Sept. 6, as the big yellow school bus rolled through Park Avenue Memorial Elementary School in Amityville, it brought with it the promise of new beginnings and countless opportunities for growth and learning.

With music playing in the background, Park Avenue has come alive once again, buzzing with the enthusiasm and energy that only a new school year can bring. It was a heartwarming atmosphere filled with familiar faces returning and new ones joining the school community, ready to embark on this educational adventure together.

As Park Avenue steps into the 2023-24 school year, Principal Mr. Edward Plaia and Assistant Principal Ms. Denise Graham would like to remind everyone that each day is a chance to learn, to inspire and to be inspired. Park Avenue is not just a place of academics; it's a place where lifelong memories are created, friendships are forged, and dreams are nurtured.
