Smithtown Students Write Letters to Veterans

Second-graders wrote letters thanking veterans for their service to the country.

From Syntax: Second-graders in Elizabeth Ozol’s and Barbara Haining’s classes at Mills Pond Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District wrote letters thanking veterans for their service to the country. They also collected goods – such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, magazines and puzzle books ­– for local veterans. The letters and items will be sent to the Northport VA Medical Center.
