Students quickly acquire empathy and compassion, by engaging in public service in their communities. Such selfless service achieves peaceful behavior at school and personal self-worth. As adults, these students become able parents and productive members of society. Morgan Lury, Jana Levin and Keira Stolowitz have been selected as recipients of the Silent Servant Award from the Peter R. Marsh Foundation for the 2024 school year for helping in their communities. It is the goal of the organization to inspire young adults to be a servant for life and an inspiration to their peers to serve as well. All three students will receive an award of $500 each. Way to go ladies!
