Middle School Students and Staff Pair Up for Badminton Tournament thumbnail216821

Islip Middle School's Shared Decision-Making Committee recently hosted the school’s first-ever students vs. staff badminton tournament as a special PTA fundraiser. Participants paired up to form 60 two-person teams for the single elimination  competition, which lasted for more than two hours until a tournament champion was named. Students and staff enjoyed playing as well as watching their peers and teachers compete. 

In the final match, Kevin Horner and John Zembrzycki prevailed over Eugenio Cardona and James Walsh in a nail-biting overtime contest. Alyssa Muschenick and Eve Schnatz earned third place with a victory over Erik Kristiansen and Evan Krut.

“All the teams played extremely well, and onlookers were in awe as they competed,” teacher Meghan Shelton said. “Our students and staff are excited to come together for fun future events.”
