Hauppauge School District Raises Funds to Help Those in Need

Hauppauge High School Student Jack Weinstein created and ran a “Battle of the Buildings” event for his International Baccalaureate (IB) project on March 14, 2014. “Students and parents filled the High School bleachers to cheer on their teachers in the building vs. building competition,” stated Weinstein. “Importantly, we were able to raise $2,600 for the District’s Care and Share program due to the generosity of our students and families.”

The Care and Share program is run individually by each school in the Hauppauge School District. It provides assistance to families who need help in meeting primary needs, holiday needs, paying for school trips and supplies, etc.
