Covert Elementary School (K-5) Voters in our district approved a $3,735,000 school expansion package in October 1952. At the time Superintendent Watson expressed the hope that the new elementary school which was to be erected on Long Beach Road and Willow Street would be ready for occupancy in February 1952. However, due to complications, ground was not broken until February 1952. In July 1952, the cornerstone was placed by the wife of the late William S. Covert. Its placement marked the beginning of the implementation of the plan of the Superintendent, Floyd B. Watson and the School Board to build a new school with eleven classrooms on the site previously known as Tally-Ho Farm. William S. Covert was the Supervising Principal in the district from 1905-1918 and became the First Superintendent of Schools. He served as superintendent from 1918-1933. 379 Willow Street South Hempstead NY 11550 (516) 255 8916 Wilson Elementary School (K-5) The school is named for Francis F. Wilson, a former president of the Board of Education. His vision, untiring devotion to children and spirit of service continue to pervade the building through the dedicated staff, parents and community members who support a strong educational environment. Our district is proud of the high school´s graduating Class of 2000; 82% of the graduates earned New York State Regents Diplomas. At Wilson School, we believe that the road to that Regents Diploma starts on the first day of kindergarten. 25 Buckingham Road Rockville Centre NY 11570 (516) 255 8910 | ||||||
