A group of sixth grade students at Setauket Elementary hosted a special assembly for fourth, fifth and sixth graders focused on allergy awareness. Supported by Project Illuminate (The Melissa Fund), the students worked together to create an informative and engaging presentation aimed at educating their peers on the importance of understanding and responding to food allergies.
During the assembly, students shared key facts about different types of food allergies, how to recognize symptoms, take precautions and respond in the event of an allergic reaction. Their goal was to help keep the school community safe, informed and empathetic.
Presenters included MJ Feller, Dylan Ferraro, Christian Gargano, Brady Korzenko, Shane Lasner and Kiran Panesar. Their efforts reflect leadership, teamwork and a strong commitment to making a difference.
