Parents, teachers, administrators and friends filled the Greenbelt City Council Chambers on May 8 to recognize a group of extraordinary students during the Advisory Committee on Education (ACE) Student Awards.
The ACE Student Awards are presented to select students from the highest grade level of each of Greenbelt’s schools who honor the city’s tradition of citizenship, leadership and academic achievement.
“It’s not always just the straight-A students,” said Melinda Brady, ACE chair. According to Brady, the awards also honor students who provide unique leadership or recommit themselves to their academic and personal goals. “Recognizing and showing the students that we value that is important,” said Brady.
