Students at Museum School 25 received free backpacks and school supplies in time for the new school year.
For the past three years, Mayor Mike Spano has selected one school to receive the donations from local sponsors. Every student at the school was entitled to a new backpack filled with supplies, such as paper, pencils and notebooks.
"If we made the life or the beginning of the school day easier for some of our students, it goes a long way to making our school district better off," says Spano.
Students will still be able to pick up their backpacks on the first day of school Thursday.
