Happy New Year and Welcome Back.
To look at some of Student council’a accomplishments this year here is a short list of some of the things we took part in.
We raised money for the Victims of Hurricane Maria making a donation of $250 dollars to Project Hope. The council chose Project Hope after we looked at several charities on Charity Navigator because it was highly rated and because they were sending medicine to the people of Puerto Rico.
We also raised money for Person Centered Care Services in the end of October raising $350 for a fine local organization that provides services for over 700 handicapped people on Staten Island.
We did a reverse Trick or treat where we made and delivered over two hundred goodie bags on Halloween to our school’s students.
We organized and help run the main buildings annual Fall Feast that fed over three hundred and fifty students and Staff.
We ran a dessert holiday party on December 14th in the Main Building that staff baked for and everyone had a great time at. The staff made some really great desserts!!!
We sold pizza to raise money to give to two charities for the Holiday Season. We gave away $400 dollars to our good friends at the Theodore Atlas Foundation and gave Person Centered Care services another two hundred dollars.
We also performed holiday songs for Teddy Atlas foundation thanks to the choral guidance of Mr. Rich Sanguinedo and Ms. Tiffany Miller.
