Locust Valley Celebrates P.S. I Love You Day

The entire Locust Valley Central School District joined together to celebrate P.S. I Love You Day on Feb. 10 with activities designed to help students appreciate the great qualities in themselves and their classmates.

P.S. I Love You Day is held annually on the second Friday of February and celebrated in schools across the region. To mark the event, students are asked to wear purple and stand up against bullying, help those battling depression and prevent suicide.

At Bayville Intermediate School, students in Beth Berglund’s fourth grade students wrote compliments to each other on one side of purple heart flyers and then traits about themselves that they liked on the other. At each school, students were greeted with uplifting music and purple heart stickers as they arrived in the morning.
