About:
Combining the excitement of the Super Bowl game with the spirit of giving, John Street School hosted a “Souper Bowl” food drive from Feb. 3-7.
Students throughout the building were encouraged to bring in canned goods and boxed food items for Long Island Cares – The Harry Chapin Food Bank. Due to the generosity of its students, John Street School filled two large boxes with donations.
On Friday, as a culmination to the drive, the school hosted a Football Jersey Day and gym teachers Kenneth Ehrenkranz and Trent Mayer hosted football-themed relay races and games during recess.
