 Giffen students donate books to hurricane-ravaged libraries

Students at Giffen Memorial Elementary School this year collected about 450 books for a BOCES initiative known as 10,000 books, an effort to send books to libraries in the south destroyed by hurricanes. Our students made regular announcements and counted the books and graphed the increase on a weekly basis. The BOCES effort actually gathered more than 20,000 books in all to help the affected libraries. Pictured here, from left to right, are Giffen fifth grade students Tierra Fryar, Sahi Van-Tull and Jarquese Mitchell holding a certificate from the program. The students are active members of the Giffen Student Government Association.
