NSCSD Goes Purple for Prevention of Suicide

On Friday, February 12 students and staff in the North Syracuse Central School District painted themselves purple in support of P.S. I Love You Day 2021. P.S. I Love You Day was started 11 years ago by Brooke Dipalma in West Islip, New York after losing a classmate and her father to suicide. She chose the color purple to represent suicide awareness and prevention. Wearing purple is a reminder that we, in fact, are not alone.  What started 11 years ago in West Islip has now turned into a worldwide day of celebration and recognition. Thank you to all students and staff in the North Syracuse Central School District for participating in P.S. I Love You Day!
