Plainville High School students Elona Tanski and Sergio Zaldivar have been named recipients of the high school’s Students Rock Award for Semester 1. In seeking a way to honor students who “do the right thing every day,” the Plainville High School Mentoring Committee, comprised of high school faculty members and led by fellow faculty member Maria Colangelo, created the Students Rock Award during the 2009-10 school year. According to the nomination guidelines created by the committee, students to be considered for the award must assume responsibility for their behavior, contribute to the school and community, and appreciate the benefits of a physically, emotionally and socially healthy lifestyle. Elona, Sergio and their families were honored on December 20th at a high school faculty meeting.
