Rocky Point Union Free School District is a school district in the Town Of Brookhaven in Suffolk County on the North Shore of Long Island, New York. The district serves almost all of Rocky Point, a large portion of Sound Beach, and a tiny pocket of Ridge. [3]
The first ever Rocky Point school was opened in 1812, and 30 years later in 1842 the first predecessor of the modern district was established as school district #9 of Brookhaven Town. In 1928, the first school used today by the district was opened. Then the Rocky Point School, it was later changed to the Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School, named for its first principal. Frank J. Carasiti Elementary School was opened in 1975, originally opened as Rocky Point Elementary School (the namesake was a long time superintendent of the district). Around the turn of the 21st century, Rocky Point Middle School was opened. Today's Rocky Point High School was originally Rocky Point Junior-Senior High School opened in 1971. [4]
