(Back row L-R): Glendale’s St. Pancras School Principal Philip Ciani with Senator Joe Addabbo; (Front row L-R): Students showing their posters and citations are Jade Sibug; Hailey Cruz; Molly Fleming.
The senate held the contest to honor and celebrate Earth Day for children in Grades K-6, using the theme, “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.” Students were encouraged not only to be creative in their projects, but also to convey a real commitment to making the environment a better place.
By educating them about the importance of recycling, students will learn to be creative in solving the problem of solid waste. Participating students’ posters will be displayed on Senator Addabbo’s website. All the participating schools were limited to submit three entries per school.
Addabbo also dropped off senate citations to students at St. Margaret’s and Our Lady of Hope in Middle Village; St. Mary Gate of Heaven in Ozone Park; P.S. 97 in Woodhaven; P.S. 58 in Maspeth; and P.S. 64 in Ozone Park.
