Good Schools Reflect on the CommunityGood Schools Reflect on the Community

Improvements in schools help the entire community:

“The Half Hollow Hills School District is one of the most desirable districts on Long Island. Many buyers are very specific, and most of them request that we only show them homes in SD #5. Your outstanding programs and dedicated faculty, staff, and administrators are magnets for parents who want their children to receive an excellent education.”

Cynthia Leimsider, Branch Manager Coldwell Banker Real Estate
