PARIS – Students of the Month for April at Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School are Lindsay Strout, freshman; Josh Desrosier, sophomore; Sierra Gray, junior; and Kayla Newmeyer, senior.
Each month, high school staff members nominate students who they feel have “made a difference in their classroom.” The goal of the program is to reward teamwork, positive behavior, extra effort and good student citizenship.
The program is coordinated through the Oxford Hills Community Education Exchange and is part of the character education curriculum at the high school. The four students were praised for their respect for other students, politeness, hard work and dedication to their community.
The students’ names and picture are placed on a plaque that hangs in the hallway across from the school library. Each month the four students have lunch with their principal and on April 4, they were honored at a Rotary breakfast.
In addition this year, each student received their own individual plaque donated by George and Jean Rubly of Lake Region Awards.
This is the seventh year of the Oxford Hills Rotary Club’s sponsorship of the program.
