Hicksville Teacher Wins Grant For Second Consecutive Year

Old Country Road Elementary School’s third-grade teacher Christine Palmieri in the Hicksville School District is the recipient of a Target Field Trip Grant for the second consecutive year.

To enhance their science curriculum, this grant will pay for the entire third-grade class to take a field trip to the Queens Zoo. At the zoo, students will engage in a hands-on instructional program about mammals and observe animals in their natural habitat.
