We’re honoring Lord Baltimore Elementary fifth grader Jayceion McCray for his leadership, effort, and excellence
The Southern Delaware Alliance for Racial Justice (SDARJ) recently honored Lord Baltimore Elementary fifth grader Jayceion McCray for his leadership, effort, and excellence.
According to his teachers, Jayceion is a polite young man who comes to school each day with a positive attitude and works hard in class. Jayceion is a leader. This year he was selected to be a library helper for Melissa Timmons, the school librarian. He works with other fifth grade students to collect library books from each classroom and turn them in throughout the week.
Jayceion is respectful to his teachers and his classmates. His teacher, Karlie Class, said Jayceion is a peer buddy for a student who is new to Lord Baltimore. Lord Baltimore teachers and administrators are proud of Jayceion and are excited to see what his future holds
Jayceion was honored in a ceremony at the school surrounded by family, teachers, and administrators and received a $20 gift card from SDARJ.
SDARJ initiated the African American Achievement award to recognize students who represent the ideals of leadership, effort, and excellence in their schools. Students from each school in the Cape Henlopen and Indian River School Districts are recognized throughout the school year. SDARJ is a nonpartisan organization that educates, informs, and advocates for racial justice, equality, and fair opportunity.
