Three exceptional students who attend Flagler Schools received Sheriff Rick Staly’s Great Kids Award for November 2023. The awards were presented to the students and their families by Chief David Williams, Commander Jennifer Nawrocki, and the students’ School Resource Deputy last week.
As part of Sheriff Staly’s “Great Kids” Program, the awards are presented every month during the school year to students who respect their peers, help others, work hard in academics, and represent themselves and their school in a positive manner. The recipients are nominated by FCSO’s School Resource Deputies (SRD) and school employees.
“I created the Great Kids Awards so we can recognize and honor the kids who make the right decisions and set a good example for their fellow students,” said Sheriff Rick Staly. “These three students are excellent examples of what it means to be leaders in the classroom, and they are very deserving of this award.”
Below is a summary of each student and why they received the Great Kids Award.
