The Half Hollow Hills Central School District educates about 7,200 K-12 students across nine schools—two high schools, two middle schools, and five elementary schools—serving the Dix Hills area of Long Island, New York. It was formed in 1954 through the consolidation of three union-free districts and grew from an initial enrollment of 1,146 students. The district covers a geographic area exceeding eight miles east to west and more than four miles north to south, and it articulates a framework that emphasizes ongoing professional learning, differentiated instruction, equitable opportunities, and strong ties with families and the broader community. In May 2026, the district appointed Michael Truocchio as Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources, reflecting leadership changes within its administration. The district has been recognized for its music education program, receiving NAMM Foundation’s Best Communities for Music Education designation in 2025 and again in 2026.
