A Tribute to Sag Harbor's 'Morning Program'

Thu, 08/31/2023 - 16:04
School days at Sag Harbor Elementary begin with morning program, filled with inspiring words and songs to help children make the best of the school day each morning.
Carissa Katz

The words "morning program" might appear dull but are warmly nostalgic for anyone who has sent their children through Sag Harbor Elementary in the last 30 years.

On Sunday at 10 a.m., the Rev. Nancy Remkus will be joined by some Sag Harbor Elementary School teachers at the Old Whalers Church on Union Street for a reunion concert featuring all the Morning Program hits.

All teachers and students are invited, as there will also be a special blessing offered to kick off the new school year.
