Islip’s Maud S. Sherwood Elementary School recently held its second writing celebration of the year. During the workshop, students learned the importance of having a growth mindset, how to focus on “process over product,” and shared their work with classmates, teachers, support staff, special area teachers, literacy coaches, administrators and even the school nurse.

“We are very proud of all students from grades 2 through 5, and were thrilled to have fifth grade parents join us for our celebration,” Principal Briana James said. “We are truly a community of readers and writers, and these special writing celebrations are a great way to show it.”
