The students awarded for excellence in art are:
Kristoffer Castaldo, Jenna Cavanagh, Kevin Dackow, Sony Han, Laura Lopez, Jenna Madden, Courtney Rosenkrantz and Patrick Skalski ? all whom received gold keys from the Scholastic Art and Writing awards, a national competition for students who exhibit originality and personal vision in their works.
?I am so proud,? said Jessica Kleinman, whose niece received a gold key award. ?We always knew she was talented but this will encourage her to continue with the arts, and it really helps her grow.?
After the kids left, the board discussed several action items, including the mandatory report about harassment and bullying in the schools. The board did not release any information about specific incidents, but did indicate the school district logged eight reports of harassment or bullying ? two in the high school, four in the middle school and one each in Allen W. Roberts School and Salt Brook School.
The board also passed a resolution for Teacher Recognition Week during the week of May 6.
Board member William Dibble said the teachers, many who also engage in extra curricular activities with the students, continue to provide excellent instruction and counseling, and are deserving of a week of recognition.
