District staff, parents and community members gathered at Islip Town Hall on Oct. 18 to induct five Islip High School students as Keep Islip Clean junior commissioners. This marked the 13th consecutive year that Islip has inducted students into the junior commissioner program.

Keep Islip Clean fosters student leadership through environmental awareness and activism in the Town of Islip. Islip’s new junior commissioners will work with students from other school districts in the town to implement recycling and beautification programs that enhance the community’s sense of environmental stewardship.
