Hicksville Students Plant 'Seeds To Success'

Kindergartners at Dutch Lane Elementary School in the Hicksville Public School District planted the “seeds of success” during the annual kinder-garden planting ceremony.

As part of the tradition, the students performed a song for their parents and planted tulip bulbs in the garden alongside the school, signifying the planting of the tiny seeds of citizenship, respect, responsibility, curiosity and knowledge. The ritual will continue in the spring, when fifth-graders will commemorate the garden by planting a stone prior to transitioning to the middle school.
