The sixth-grade students of the New Hyde Park-Garden City Park Odyssey program recently debated a hypothetical senate bill at the New Hyde Park Village Hall. This debate was the culminating activity in their participation of the Constitution Works civics program.
Led by Odyssey teacher, Sheila Bet and the facilitator from the Constitution Works program, the students from the Garden City Park, New Hyde Park Road, Manor Oaks, Notre Dame and Hillside Grade schools held a lively debate and gained an understanding of what being a senator entailed.
