Washington Street School Students Welcome Pen Pals from Schwarting Elementary School



Mrs. Connors' class learned how to write a friendly letter by writing to "Pen-pals" from the Schwarting Elementary School in the Plainedge School District. Sending their letters was easy because Dr.Butera and his son David acted as their personal mail carriers since David is in first grade at Schwarting Elementary School. His teacher Mrs. Connolly, and Mrs. Connors are very proud of their students' writing ability and hope the students continue their pen-pal friendships. We hope you enjoy the video of their "Pen-Pal Picnic". Meeting their new friends was great!!
