East Rockaway welcomes the Class of 2032

East Rockaway’s seventh grader

Yesterday was a big day for East Rockaway’s seventh graders as they officially began their journey at East Rockaway Junior/Senior High School!

The school’s newest students gathered for seventh-grade orientation, with activities designed to help them get to know their classmates, explore their new school, and become familiar with life at ERHS.

The day brought a few nerves, plenty of excitement and lots of new experiences. Students made new friends, reconnected with familiar faces and got a taste of what awaits them when classes begin next week.

Welcome to ERHS, Class of 2032! We’re excited to have you here.
