FRANKFORT, IL — The National Junior Honor Society at Hickory Creek Middle School recently put together care packages for the residents at Frankfort Terrace Nursing Home in downtown Frankfort, the district said in a release. According to the district, students wanted to do something nice for the older residents of Frankfort, who have been especially affected by the isolation and loneliness from the COVID-19 pandemic. Over 90 care packages were assembled by the students. NJHS students met over a series of meetings to color bookmarks, assemble picture frames, and fill each bag with decks of cards, slipper socks, packs of tissues, and handwritten notes, the district said.
