The full story

This transcript documents Aquila Elementary School's "Terrific Kids" recognition program. Katie Moore, a member of the school's lead team, opened the program and introduced Tina Santillo of the Lake Region Kiwanis Club. Teachers presented awards and praised selected students across pre-K through sixth grade, naming students such as Skylin Kakia, Zoe Mitchell, Hunter Krill, Zayba Sims, Gilberto Contreras, Keanna Hall, Dylan Wolf, John Michael Bennett, Adiel Sarah Tapeta, Chloe McKellar, Brooklyn Lundy, Cassidy Mahoney, Aubrey Meadows, Daniella Shull, Bella Rae, Vanessa Maso, Daisy Sarah Teptate, Cannon Hutchinson, Jadiel Nija Hernandez, David Backer, Owen Williams and others. The ceremony included a "Portrait of a Graduate" segment tied to the Putnam County School District strategic plan and recognized one "resilient individual" from each grade. No civic actions, votes, or government decisions were recorded in this transcript; it is a school program and is therefore ineligible for civic reporting.
