140 Middle School Students Get Recognition for Being Positive Role Models

The F. Cecil Grace Foundation will honor more than 140 Mildred E. Strang Middle School students and their parents at a special recognition banquet for "Operation Positive Role Model." 

Mr. and Mrs. Grace will acknowledge and commend the students in grades 6, 7, and 8 "whose acts of kindness and responsibility have had a positive influence or impact on the lives of others in our school and our community."

In addition, five eight grade students will each receive $1,000 United States Savings Bond Commencement Scholarship provided by the F. Cecil Grace Foundation. 

The winners were selected anonymously by a committee of the Mildred E. Strang Middle School Student Council Leaders for having demonstrated selflessness and commitments to personal values, qualities that a positive role model possesses. 

The student recognition ceremony will take place during the "Operation Positive Role Model" banquet held at the Colonial Terrace in Cortlandt Manor.
