21. bbs H A M P T O N B A Y S M I D D L E S C H O O L "Not only is the Hampton Bays Middle School a healthier place to go to school because it is green, it is also changing the behaviors of our students, staff members, and community in a very positive way. Green is not just the way the building was constructed; it is how we are beginning to live our lives. In addition to going to a healthy school, our culture is also full of environmental awareness and conservation projects!“ - Lars E. Clemensen, Superintendent of Schools
