First grade students at Old Country Road Elementary School in Hicksville celebrated this year’s Lunar New Year, Year of the Snake, with a parade around the school. The students also enjoyed making hats, masks and lanterns to celebrate the occasion.
After their parade, the school’s Student Council and Site Based students presented an informational assembly in the school’s gymnasium about the origins of Lunar New Year and information about the Year of the Snake.
To close out the assembly, OCR students performed a readers theater play called "Ting's Chinese New Year Surprise.”
