December 3, 2024, Day of Giving Students from the Nurse Assisting and Associated Health Careers Class at Monroe 2 Orleans BOCES, part of the SkillsUSA WEMOCO chapter, have been reflecting on their experiences for this year’s Day of Giving. Each student wrote statements about the acts of kindness or good deeds they performed for the community during the day. These reflections inspired our students and highlighted the positive impact we can have on those around us.
