Plainedge High School
Plainedge High School is an American public high school in the hamlet of North Massapequa, Long Island, New York, and is part of the Plainedge Union Free School District. It is the only high school in North Massapequa.
Plainedge High School's football coach, Robert Shaver, was accused of running up the score in a game against South Side High School on 25 October 2019, which ended in a score of 61–13 in favor of Plainedge. As punishment, Shaver was suspended for one game, which resulted in widespread criticism from sports journalists, and an email to all on superintendent Edward Salina's mailing list in support of Shaver.
