Schools
Southold Junior Senior High School
For grades 7 through 12, this school also educates students from the small adjacent New Suffolk school district.[3]
In 2013 the district launched a program called "SOHO TV" which has seen widespread acclaim throughout its existence. Since the program's conception they have completed 150+ episodes airing weekly on Fridays. The program has also recently worked with Stony Brook University for the Broadcast Awards for Senior High (BASH Awards).
Central and Union Free school districts are authorized to operate high schools, though not all do, while common school districts may not operate high schools.
