Rotary Students of the Month
The Rotary club of Roselle Park announced their Students of the Month for December: Karla Torres of Abraham Clark High School, Sylvia Altman of Roselle Park High School, Henry Mejia of Abraham Clark High School, and Daniel Rodriguez. Students were selected because they exhibit the ideals of Rotary – Service to School and Community – as well as their dedication to academic excellence.
Students of the Month is a service project of the Rotary Club of Roselle-Roselle Park funded in part by a grant from the Rotary Foundation. This community service project honors a senior from each of the high schools in Roselle and Roselle Park, including Roselle Park High School, Roselle’s Abraham Clark High School, and Roselle Catholic High School. Each student receives a personalized plaque commemorating the occasion, a gift card to Barnes and Noble, and an opportunity to speak to the group outlining their service to school and community and their academic successes. The project is coordinated by Rotarian Sarah Costa, Principal of Roselle Park High School. Rotarian Julie Pinho created the program for the Rotary club years ago. Courtney Washington shepherded the program through the COVID pandemic.
The Rotary Club of Roselle Park is a service organization that has served the twin boroughs of Roselle-Roselle Park since 1923 – 100 years! The only qualification for joining is that you are a good person who wishes to make a difference in the community, the world, and in the lives of others.
