Northern Lights Public Schools students are making an impact in their schools and communities.
The NLPS Board of Trustees will be recognizing 23 students from 16 schools with Impact Awards during the month of June. The students were selected based on their contributions to creating a positive school culture, citizenship and volunteerism, mentoring other students, exhibiting empathy, kindness and compassion for others, and using their knowledge and skills to effect positive change.
“Our Impact Award winners are all students who help create welcoming, inclusive and supportive learning environments in our schools,” said Board Chair Karen Packard. “They are positive role models for other students and dedicate their time and energy to helping others in their schools and communities.”
