Due to her academic successes and commitment to reporting and writing, Connetquot High School junior Emily Palazzotto has been selected as one of 20 students to attend the Summer Journalism Institute hosted at Stony Brook University. 

While in attendance for the weeklong program, Emily will have the opportunity to work alongside seasoned journalists and explore the multimedia aspects of the career path, such as photography and videography. Additionally, she will be provided residency on campus and will be able to sample the college experience prior to possibly attending in the future.
 
The district, along with Emily’s Advanced Placement English language teacher Alan Fertmann, congratulate her on this outstanding accomplishment.
