More than 450 colorfully dressed students, along with hundreds of district parents, walked the halls of Connetquot High School on Saturday, Oct. 20 in celebration of the annual Safe Halloween Spectacular, as sponsored by the Connetquot High School Student Government.

More than 150 high school students volunteered to take part in this year’s event, as each group of students selected their own theme and decorated their assigned area of the first floor of Connetquot High School. 40 rooms were designated for ‘trick-or-treating’, while the cafeteria provided music, fun and games for the attendees. Additionally, canned food was collected as part of the admission, which will be distributed to local food pantries.

“This annual event would not be possible without the wonderful and generous Connetquot High School student-volunteers,” said Connetquot High School Student Government Co-Adviser Sal Piscitelli. “This was yet another fun event, not just for the visitors, but for the Connetquot students who make Safe Halloween possible.”
