High schoolers from East Williston’s The Wheatley School participated in different projects as part of a Day of Service and Learning on Oct. 19. The special day included self-care/wellness activities, guest speakers from local charity organizations and team building activities.
The day kicked off with a special assembly that featured speakers from the Hance Family Foundation, the Alzheimer’s Association and the Henry Viscardi Center.
Founded on the principles of service that were done following the events of Sept. 11th, the students and staff worked together to help the community in more than 40 community service activities, including crocheting baby hats, making pillow cases, and assembling hygiene bags and packages for birthday wishes.
