The Merrick Avenue International Buddy Club students made Veterans Day cards to honor and thank some of our Long Island veterans.
In the past, the Club has raised money to help send veterans to Washington, D.C. for the day through Honor Flight Long Island.
“Given our current situation, since they were unable to do this and the flights are suspended, we felt now more than ever it was important to reach out to our veterans, many of whom are elderly and living alone, to show our gratitude,” said Denise Schleith, a World Languages and ENL teacher.
