6 Drosman Shops for a Cause!

Mrs. Drosman's sixth grade class visited Stop & Shop, West Hempstead on Friday, November 13th. But, they went there with a purpose! Students filled their baskets with groceries that they will donate to the Siena Center Outreach Program. Items will go to local families in need during this special time of year. These students and their teacher can serve as role models to us all . . . Thank you 6Drosman!

Book of the Month for November

To kick off a month of kindness at Washington Street School, "Guest Readers" visited classrooms to read November's Book of the Month, Ordinary Mary's Extraordinary Deed, by Emily Pearson. Dr. Pecorale, Mr. Manley, Mrs. Soffientini, as well as reading teachers, Mrs. Raehse and Mrs. Wicks, were but a few of the faculty who shared this beautiful story with students. The smiles on the faces of both children and readers is a joy to view. Like Mary, you can make a difference . . . Share this posting with 5 people you know! :-)
