A.C. Whelan School honors 27 students for honesty and integrity

By Melissa Moore-Randall

REVERE – The A.C. Whelan honored 27 students who consistently demonstrated honesty and integrity in their daily choices and interactions. These students are trusted by peers and staff alike for doing what is right, even when no one is watching. This round of nominations came from Specialists, Interventionists and Support Staff, including coaches, counselors and EL and Special Education staff, who recognized students for embodying the values of truthfulness, responsibility and strong moral character.

The student celebration included a Trust, Truth and Honesty Chalk Celebration, where they designed and created their own Truth Squares using sidewalk chalk. Each square was a creative expression of what honesty and integrity mean to them and our school.

To honor their achievement, students received a heartfelt parent letter from the staff member who nominated them, recognizing their strong character, a classroom award to proudly display in their learning space and a takeaway pack filled with items celebrating their positive citizenship.
