In honor of Earth Day, second-grade students at the Edward J. Bosti Elementary School in Sayville, part of the Connetquot Central School District, participated in the Our Living Planet experience: an interactive educational program featuring a massive inflatable Earth balloon. Students stepped inside the 19-foot-tall sphere, which displays true-to-scale satellite imagery of the planet.
