Campus

In 1978, Smithtown Gospel Tabernacle bought the 15-acre Sweet Briar Public School campus in order to start a school. Classroom buildings were made, but then the church decided to build a sanctuary between the classroom buildings, and pretty soon the church and the school were sharing facilities. The church is now building a multi-million dollar addition which will add more classrooms and practice rooms for the band and orchestra. [1]

Notable alumni

• Seth Franco, the first white American basketball player for the Harlem Globetrotters since 1942. [2][3][4]
• Joe Morin, drummer for Edison Glass (all the band members have attended the school for at least one year)
