Suffolk Public Schools operates a number of social media channels to share the great things that are happening in our schools. Follow us to see inside our schools through photos and videos of classroom activities as well as breaking news and information.

We update and monitor these accounts intermittently throughout the weekday--from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. At times, the accounts may be used before and after these times to communicate about urgent issues or respond to inquiries from members of the public.
