As part of the Hicksville Middle School’s ongoing altruistic efforts, the National Junior Honor Society organized a schoolwide collection of books to donate to the Book Fairies organization. Book Fairies, which collects books for all age groups, donates to Long Island school districts with higher socio-economic needs. The nonprofit received 15 boxes of books for distribution from the middle school. The collection effort highlighted not only students’ willingness to participate in a worthy endeavor, but also demonstrated their understanding of the importance of books as stepping stones to success.
