During November, Tooker Avenue students honored veterans in the local community by interviewing those in their families who have served in the military and writing a brief biography with details regarding their service. Deceased veterans were also included through family history interviews.
The biographies were hung in the school lobby to create a wall of honor. The school also collected items for the Long Island Blue Star Moms NY6 organization, which will be boxed and sent overseas to active duty military personnel.
