A generation of Sachem students passed down their school spirit to the next at the first-ever Sachem kindergarten-senior walk on Oct. 24. The kindergarten class from each of Sachem’s 10 elementary schools visited the high school on their side of the district. They lined up at one end of the football field while members of the senior class who went to their elementary school lined up at the opposite endzone. The seniors met the kindergartners at the 50-yard line to “pass on the torch” and welcome the youngest students into the Sachem family. The seniors gifted them bracelets and pins and spent time talking to the kindergartners.
 
The event took place ahead of the Sachem East vs. North football game on Oct. 26 and helped instill Sachem spirit across the entire school community. All who took part recognized the importance of the legacy each Sachem graduating class leaves behind.
