Students at Gilbert Paterson Middle School are sending out best wishes in a unique way. In anticipation of Wishing Day May 1, the Grades 6-8 students at the school are rolling up their sleeves, getting their hands a little dirty and sending out positive vibes to seniors in the area via a bird-shaped piece of wood with a message of best wishes. The activity is designed to mark the anniversary of the One District, One Book initiative, done in 2019, which is a novel study of Wishtree by Katherine Applegate.
