The Lisle Lions Club is also pleased to announce recipients of the 2019 Eighth Grade Achievement Awards:
• From St. Joan of Arc School: Sophia Johnson and Brady Kunka
• From Lisle Junior High School: Rebekah Zielinski and Zach Cygan.
Achievement award guidelines are: to be a good student (works to his/her best ability); to be involved in extracurricular school activities (band, clubs, sports); be a good class citizen (gets along well with others and goes "the extra mile" to help others); and to be involved in family and community activities.
Selections are made by a committee of St. Joan and Lisle Junior High School teachers and administrators.
Funds for these two awards are generated by each of you when you attend or volunteer your time to the Lisle Lions Club at the Eyes To The Skies Festival in July.
