The Huntington Union Free School District is a school district in Huntington, New York. There are eight schools in the district. Students in kindergarten through grade 3 are situated at Flower Hill Primary, Jefferson Primary, Southdown Primary and Washington Primary Schools. Students in grades 4-6 attend Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School or Woodhull Intermediate School. J. Taylor Finley Middle School serves students in grades 7 and 8.

The district is known for its diverse population and its broad-ranging academic and extracurricular programs, including widely recognized programs in the arts and athletics. The district has greatly expanded its STEM initiatives during the past few years, including the STEM Magnet School program and a middle school STEM enrichment program. The district also features an expanding and inclusive science research program at Huntington High School,[3] which produced a Intel Science Talent Search winner in 2014.[4] The elementary dual-language program is another popular option for elementary parents and students and is available to students entering Kindergarten.[5]
