Principal's Announcements

Welcome to St. Dominic Elementary School. Please call (516) 922-4233 to learn more about our school and to schedule a tour.



Although Catholic Schools Week is over, the celebration continues as the students of St. Dominic Elementary School continue to grow in their faith, excel in their academics and provide service to their community throughout the year. 

It was a wonderful week of events and special recognition of our students and teachers. I would be remiss if I did not recognize the backbone of our school, the parents! Thank you so much for entrusting your children to St. Dom's. Thank you to the Parents Association and the Messina Family for the student appreciation lunch.  A BIG thank you from the teachers and administration for the lovely luncheon on Friday at Jack Halyards. The food was delicious and all had a great time. We laughed and ate and enjoyed the afternoon! Thank you again!!!
