Kindness knows no age! When Assistant Superintendent for Business Vince Napoli recently paused to tie his shoe, a thoughtful Elementary School student jumped right in to help. While carefully tying Mr. Napoli's shoe, the youngster even made a double knot to make sure the tie stayed in place. It was a small gesture that showcases the big hearts our Ellenville students bring to our school community every day. Good job, buddy!
