About:
Students, faculty and administrators in the East Rockaway School District recently participated in Red Nose Day to raise awareness and fundraise for organizations that help combat child poverty.
In the days leading up to Red Nose Day, students in various clubs in all three of the district’s schools held fundraisers to raise money/purchase a red nose. The event, organized by the district’s social workers under the direction of Pupil Personnel Services Director Laura Guggino-Hastings, benefited the non-profit organization Comic Relief Inc.
In addition to raising nearly $700, students took part in many educational activities.
