Fellowship and food at Port Jefferson MS senior citizen luncheon

More than two dozen local seniors received a warm welcome from students and staff as they took part in the annual Port Jefferson Middle School senior citizen luncheon, a spirited afternoon of festive surroundings, friends and seasonal music.

Organized by members of the student council under the leadership of adviser Allison Giannusa, students volunteered throughout the event as servers and greeters and visited with the attendees socially. Students enthusiastically asked questions about the seniors’ families and interests and share their own stories in the hopes of creating new friendships.

The senior guests were also treated to two preview scenes from “Antigone,” the high school’s fall drama, and several musical selections.
