Deer Park High School has National Merit Finalist
Deer Park High School student Kristen McKenna has been announced as a Finalist in the 2008 National Merit Scholarship competition. Kristen was one of 16,000 semifinalists named in September of 2007 and after meeting some lofty requirements including impressive recommendations from Deer Park administrators and a reviewed record of the challenging course selection and her successful completion, has advanced to finalist standing.
McKenna has also been named for her superior performance on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT), and is among the highest scoring entrants in New York State, and is now in the running to receive a 2008 scholarship from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. Winners will be announced this spring.

Deer Park Teachers’ Association
Proudly serving the Community and Students of Deer Park
Welcome to the Deer Park Teachers’ Association website. The purpose of this website is to provide our members and the public with information about the Deer Park Teachers’ Association. The DPTA is the legally recognized bargaining unit for the teachers and professional staff in the Deer Park School District. The Deer Park teachers are members of the New York State United Teachers. We are also affiliated with the American Federation of Teachers, National Education Association and the AFL-CIO.
Our primary purpose is to work together to maximize educational opportunities available to the students in Deer Park. As teachers in Deer Park, we have become an integral part of the lives of our students and the community. We continue to be involved daily. Look for us at your child’s sporting events, concerts, plays, local benefits, fundraisers, and the list goes on. You can always tell who the DPTA teachers are. They're the ones rooting for your children, telling them how fabulous they are and being there to show that their support goes well beyond the classroom, or even the school day.
There is one phrase that says it all. We Care.
PORT JEFFERSON RALLY!
The members of the Port Jefferson Teachers Association have been without a contract for nearly two school years.
To assist them in their efforts, NYSUT's Suffolk and Nassau Regional Offices, along with the Long Island Directors, ask that you join us in supporting the PJTA.
We will be demonstrating our collective strength, support and solidarity at a really for PJTA on Tuesday, May 13, 2008.
We will leave Deer Park at 4:30PM.
