Leaders in Safety Awards
Keeping our school community safe takes a team effort, and during the 2025–2026 school year, five outstanding students truly led the way. We are incredibly proud to celebrate Royce Moeller (5th grade), Lily Slepicka (4th grade), Rebecca Blythe (4th grade), Dahlia Dorman (1st grade), and Margot Benton (1st grade) for earning prestigious Student Safety Leadership Awards.
From our oldest 5th graders down to our youngest 1st graders, these students were recognized for going above and beyond to look out for their classmates, follow school safety practices, and model responsible behavior every single day. Whether helping peers navigate the hallways safely or stepping up as positive role models on the playground, their everyday actions make our school a better, safer place to learn.
