West Hollow is a beautiful middle school, nestled in the western part of the Half Hollow Hills Central School District. It is surrounded by farmland as well as the home of the technology and business center of western Suffolk County known as the 110 corridor.
West Hollow Middle School is a child-centered middle school which sees as its mission to focus on the ideals of the middle school concept: attention to the whole child. To that end, the dedicated teachers, counselors, administrators, and support staff at all levels work ceaselessly toward helping students make the two most important transitions they will make: from elementary school to middle school and middle school to high school. Integrated curricula, a wealth of technology, a trained and in-serviced staff knowledgeable about the nature and needs of middle school children, and a child friendly physical plant: all of these and more make West Hollow all that it is and all that it can be.
