Hicksville Students, Senior Citizens Attend Joint Luncheon

The Hicksville School District recently honored the community’s senior citizens during its 24th annual Spring Senior Citizen Luncheon at the high school.

The guests were served delicious meals by student-volunteers in a ballroom-type setting in one of the school’s gymnasiums, and were also treated to remarkable performances by student-musicians, including “New York, New York” by the jazz ensemble; a duet of “I Can’t Help Myself” by student-vocalists; and “Bop Talk” by the saxophone quartet. Selections from the high school theater department’s production of “Spamalot” were then presented, and the special guests also had the opportunity to appreciate students’ incredible visual artwork that was featured throughout the gymnasium.

The luncheon served as a way for students to showcase their talents and foster a bond with valued members of the Hicksville community.
