On April 11, students and teachers at Amityville Memorial High School went head-to-head in the school’s inaugural “Amityville Feud.” 

Based on the popular game show “Family Feud,” classes at each grade level competed against each other while two groups of high school teachers competed in the preliminary rounds in the school’s auditorium. Emceed by senior Adonis Lyons (dressed as Steve Harvey), the topics were based on daily habits of students and teachers in school. The final competition came down to the sophomores against the teachers, and the high school’s teachers emerged as the winners in the best of two out of three games.  

The inaugural “Amityville Feud” was held at the high school to celebrate the school’s positive culture in the building. The high school has sought ways to increase the number of activities that encourage student participation and build a stronger sense of community. The district commends our high school students on their continued growth of positive culture which has led to meaningful and enjoyable activities that keep students engaged, motivated, and excited to be part of the school.
