Grace and Isabella will join Student Representative Juliana Levesque, Class of 2021 on the Committee at the next regular School Committee meeting scheduled for December 7, 2020. Grace is a member of the Class of 2022 at Sanford High School as well as a student in the Electrical Wiring Program at SRTC.  In her application for this position, Grace notes, “I think it is the responsibility of students to give feedback to decision makers, working collaboratively to make our school system the best that it can be”.   

Isabella is also a member of the Class of 2022 at Sanford High School where she has participated in the Treble Choir, Field Hockey, Drama/Theater, Gifted/Talented, Peer Helpers and the National Society of High School Scholars.  “Bella” states, “I would really like to have a greater presence in my high school and my community.  Joining the School Committee is the perfect opportunity for me to achieve this.”
