The Sayville School District honored ten outstanding students of the Long Island Coalition Against Bullying (LICAB) Community Leadership Awards at a recent ceremony.
The students, two from each Sayville school building, were each presented a certificate and introduced with a special speech by the teacher who nominated them. The LICAB Community Leadership Award is awarded to Sayville students for demonstrating strong character, leadership, and empathy.
Elementary school recipients are Ean Dinkel, Sienna Dodge, Michaela Greco, Emily Griffiths, Mason Martello, and Myles Wilkinson.
Sayville Middle School recipients are Deanna Jackson and Lillian McDonald. Jack Hartman and Frankie Miller were awarded from the high school.
“In the Sayville School District, we believe that along with learning, it is important for us to build a culture of caring,” said Sayville superintendent of schools Dr. Marc Ferris. “With these annual LICAB awards, we are able to take a moment to recognize those students in our school community that embody that mission and show that they care for their fellow students.”
Each winning student also received a check for their good deeds, with elementary students receiving $100, middle school students receiving $500, and high school students receiving $1,000.
