As grade eight graduates across Regina savour their first days of summer freedom, 66 of them have something extra to celebrate.
The Association of Regina REALTORS® Inc. (ARR) has honoured one grade eight student from each of the city’s public and Catholic elementary schools with the REALTORS® Citizenship Award. The award recognizes young people who demonstrate an exemplary commitment to their school and community.
“Our members raise their families here, too, and we want to applaud these students for the leadership they’re showing in our community and encourage them to stay involved,” says ARR Executive Officer, Gord Archibald. “Regina’s future is in good hands!”
The ARR introduced the REALTORS® Citizenship Award in 2012 as a lasting legacy of its 100th anniversary and as part of its Quality of Life program, which encourages the building of better communities. Each school selects its own recipient according to citizenship values consistent with the grade eight social studies curriculum and those of its school division.
More than 40 Regina REALTORS® and ARR staff volunteered to present the awards at grade eight graduation ceremonies throughout June. Congratulations to all of the deserving recipients and thank you for making Regina an even better place to call home!
