Plainview Fourth Graders Support the Troops

Mr. Paskal’s fourth grade students from Plainview's Stratford Road Elementary School recently “adopted” a soldier and his unit currently stationed in Afghanistan.

The students wrote letters to the soldiers, decorated a banner and collected toiletries and snacks which were packaged and sent to the soldiers. 

Adopted soldier Michael Cavezza is currently serving as a sergeant in the U.S. Army and is the nephew of a Plainview-Old Bethpage faculty member.  The heart-felt and caring packages created by the fourth graders are sure to put smiles on the soldiers’ faces.
