William Paca Middle School spreads holiday cheer through music and charity


Lorraine Mentz Trustee | William Floyd School District

William Paca Middle School recently engaged in spreading holiday cheer through music and acts of generosity. Student musicians from the "Jazz Choir" and "A Ca Paca," led by Kaylee Figalora-Torres and Margaret Pizzarelli, performed a selection of holiday songs for travelers at Long Island MacArthur Airport.

The school community also extended their efforts to support those in need during the holiday season. They organized an initiative to "adopt" 13 families, aiming to provide them with some extra assistance during this time.
