Students from across the district recently took part in the Praise Our Police initiative by creating posters and cards expressing appreciation for members of the Nassau County Police Department.

Members of the Mineola High School Student Service Center collected all the items and, on Jan. 8, proudly presented their work to Assemblyman Ra, sharing messages of gratitude created by learners throughout the district. The project provided students with a meaningful opportunity to engage in civic responsibility while recognizing the important role law enforcement plays in the community.

The student-created messages were collected districtwide and shared in advance of Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, reinforcing Mineola’s commitment to community partnership, respect and service.
