About:
Student council members from West End Elementary School in the Lynbrook Public Schools recently hosted a virtual craft night in lieu of their traditional food drive for the holidays.
Led by student council advisers Heather LaBarbera and Melissa Kulikowsky, West End students who were interested in participating could purchase a bag of craft materials for $5 and receive a Cisco Webex meeting link to join the craft night. Approximately 80 students participated in the special event and together, the school raised $390 which the student council will be donating to the food pantry at Our Lady of Peace to support the community in need this Thanksgiving.
