Mineola School District sixth graders recently completed a service-learning project for the Interfaith Nutrition Network (INN). As part of their family and consumer sciences class, students baked cookies for the holidays and donated them to the organization.
The INN’s Communications Manager Dana Lopez came to Mineola Middle School on Dec. 15 to accept the donations and speak with students on exactly how their cookies will go a long way towards helping families on Long Island. She also showed a brief video, which detailed hunger and homelessness on Long Island and the various ways students could help.
