The second-grade students at Islip’s Commack Road Elementary School have been counting down the days to February 14 since the first day of school. In Islip, February 14 wasn’t just a celebration of Valentine’s Day, but also of the 100th Day of School. To prepare for the 100th day, the students worked on art projects at home with their families, with which they lined the second-grade wing of the school, and read 100 books. On the actual 100th day, the students participated in English and math exercises centered on the number 100.
