The Mount Sinai School District is a school district in the Town of Brookhaven in Suffolk County, New York on the North Shore of Long Island. The district serves almost exclusively nearly all of the hamlet Mount Sinai, but also tiny parts of the village of Port Jefferson, and the hamlets of Miller Place, and Coram. [2]

History

The precursor to the modern school district was a one room school built in 1869, with expansion in 1908. The school served the area for nearly a hundred years, before it finally closed in 1960. Following the original school's closure, the Mount Sinai district was no more and students who previously would have gone to the original school had to go to Port Jefferson for education. In 1965, the district returned with the establishment of a new elementary school. The district is now where it is today after the additions of a middle and high school in 1978 and 1991 respectively. Today, all three of these schools are located on the same campus on North Country Road in Mount Sinai. [3] [4]
