On Friday, December 18, 2020, Franklin Elementary School in Rahway held a virtual Academic Excellence Awards Celebration to honor the following exemplary fifth and sixth graders: Jason Afum, Sofia DaSilva, Christian Morim, David Wilk, Bryan Arias, Ashly Ashby, Leonardo Delgado, Jaylen Eastman, Madison Ferreira, Brian Gliwa, Jonathan Hanna, Hazel Hernandez, Chyanne Jazikoff, Saaya Kadakia, Tristian Keitt, Erin Mazzeo, Sarah Nisenbaum, Diya Patel, Neby Paulos, Isabella Prado, and Daniel Dade.
In order to be recognized for this achievement, students had to earn an A in every subject, which is an average of 90 or higher for the first marking period. Students received a certificate in the mail along with a pizza coupon to recognize their hard work. The virtual celebration began with a message from Dr. Aleya Shoieb, the school’s principal, followed by Dr. Juan Miao, the school’s vice-principal, then each teacher shared some congratulatory words. Parents and students also had a chance to say something as well.
