In honor of Native American Heritage Month, our Lower School students gathered for a special assembly led by Ms. Douglas, our Director of Global Engagement and Community.

Students explored the history of the Matinecock people, whose ancestral lands include the area where Portledge stands today. Our Middle School Select Chorus shared a performance of the “Shoshone Love Song”, and Lower School students participated in a talking circle, emphasizing the importance of listening, sharing, and respecting one another’s voices.

Students were encouraged to carry these practices beyond the assembly, reflecting the values of kindness and respect that are central to our Portledge community.

A little warmth goes a long way! 💙
Our Portledge community came together to support families in need through a schoolwide coat and warm clothing drive in partnership with One Warm Coat. Spearheaded by Gunnar F. ’28 and our 11th Grade Class Officers, the initiative brought students across all divisions together for a shared purpose.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, several bags of coats and warm clothing were delivered to James A. McNeil Elementary School in Hempstead, helping students and families stay warm as the colder months approach. A meaningful reminder of the impact we can make when kindness extends beyond our campus.
