The Lawrence Kearney Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution recently presented Youth Citizenship Awards to students at four local schools.
On Thursday evening, June 1, Alice Macomber, Lawrence Kearney Regent 2021-23, presented a certificate and pin to Pine Island Elementary student Stella Storupski, daughter of Jessie and Thomas Storupski at the fifth grade promotion ceremony at the school.
Gulf Middle School winner, 8th grade student Madison Weidenbenner, daughter of Jennifer Lee and Brett Weidenbenner, was recognized during the morning school newscast Thursday, June 1. Madison’s grandmother is a member of the DAR and Madison is a member of the Billy Bowlegs Chapter of the Children of the American Revolution.
Two middle school awards were presented Friday, May 12. Caloosa Middle School student Berenice Sanchez was described by faculty as a student leader when she received her award. Makayla Mitchell, eighth grade student at Trafalgar Middle School, has a positive attitude, maturity and excels in whatever she attempts, staff said. She and her mother are volunteers at the Veterans’ Honor Flights.
To be considered for a Youth Citizenship Award, a student must exemplify these qualities: honor, service, courage, leadership and patriotism.
