About:
Under the direction of Eastport-South Manor Central School District second grade teacher Elise Allen, Tuttle Avenue Elementary School organized a Book Fairies collection. This fall, students diligently collected books for the Rotary Club of Moriches, who will redistribute the collection through the Book Fairies organization for under-resourced communities on Long Island and to provide equitable reading and learning opportunities for children.
