In honor of Constitution Day, students across the Middle Country Central School District participated in a variety of educational and reflective activities to commemorate these significant events in American history.
For example, at North Coleman Road Elementary School, students embraced the spirit of citizenship, unity, and historical awareness through age-appropriate classroom activities. In Ms. Cenerelli and Ms. Bellacera’s first-grade class, students collaborated to create their own Class Constitution, learning about the importance of rules, fairness, and cooperation in a community.
Ms. Cuccinello’s third-grade class took time to reflect on the significance of the U.S. Constitution by discussing what it means to them personally and how it shapes the freedoms they experience each day. Their thoughtful responses were part of a creative activity aimed at building civic awareness and appreciation for American democratic values.
Even the youngest learners joined the celebration—Ms. Grzymala’s UPK Pineapple class engaged in a hands-on activity where students created their own version of a classroom constitution. Through this exercise, these early learners began to explore concepts like responsibility, kindness, and respect for one another.
Throughout the Middle Country Central School District, these commemorative activities serve not only as a tribute to the past but also as a way to instill values of respect, unity, and civic responsibility in future generations.
