Our annual Service Above Self Awards for graduating eighth graders at Westbrook Middle School were presented by Becky Albert on behalf of Westbrook-Gorham Rotary on Wednesday June 20, 2018 at an awards and recognition ceremony at the WMS auditorium. These students were selected by their teachers as exemplifying the Rotary motto of Service Above Self.
The winners were Quentyn May and Kayla Rairdon. The two students were recognized for being good citizens in and out of the classroom. Kayla, daughter of Gary and Laurie Rairdon, works on the Westbrook Strong 5K race that raises funds for the Matthew Rairdon Scholarship Fund. Quentyn also volunteers in the community and plays alto sax with an interest in jazz. Congratulations to both students.
Books were donated to the WMS Library in their honor. The book titles this year were: Build Your Own Rockets and Planes by ROB IVES and Chasing King's Killer: The Hunt For Martin Luther King Jr's Assassin by James Swanson.
