Every year the Archer
Heights Civic Association (AHCA) presents a Junior Citizen Award to one student
of the eighth grade graduating class at each of the five grammar
schools located in Archer Heights – St. Bruno, Edwards, St. Richard, Pfc Omar
Torres, and Spc Daniel Zizumbo - in recognition of outstanding school spirit
and school/community/church participation.
It is our civic association’s
hope that by presenting this award we not only thank a student for being
involved in the community and their respective school, but also to encourage
all graduates to become actively involved in our community of Archer heights or
whatever community the student will ultimately reside in.
The awards were
presented at the graduation ceremonies of each school and the recipients were
acknowledged at the December 10th meeting of the AHCA.
