Bethpage students make delicious drinks to raise funds for Hurricane Harvey victims
John F. Kennedy Middle School students in the Bethpage School District raised funds for the Dickinson Independent School District in Dickinson, Texas, by making coffee and hot chocolate for JFK faculty at the “Caring Café.”
During their vocational period, JFK’s Academy Class transformed into baristas as they accepted orders from teachers and staff. Special education teacher Zachary Levy created a Google Form link for staff to request a $1 delicious hot beverage for pickup or delivery.
Working off the spreadsheet, the students created an assembly line, brewing coffee and hot chocolate and customizing the orders with milk and sugar. All proceeds will help the students of Dickinson, who have been affected by Hurricane Harvey.
