About:
An annual event that spreads messages of hope, love and kindness throughout the hallways of Herricks Middle School, P.S. I Love You Day was celebrated on Friday, Feb. 10. The purpose is to ensure that every student feels connected, and therefore, never feels alone. Students pledged acts of kindness on purple hearts that were displayed with words of support and encouragement for their fellow classmates. Students and staff members created a sea of purple throughout the building by wearing purple as a sign of unity.
Purple items such as glasses, headbands, bracelets and necklaces were sold to help create some school spirit and raise money to support a Herricks family.
