SAVE 2007 STUDENT OF THE YEAR - Casey Story
Casey Story, an eighth grade student at East Garner Middle School, was recognized by the National Association of Students Against Violence Everywhere (SAVE) for her volunteer work and efforts in preventing school violence. The 2006-2007 National SAVE Student of the Year Award was awarded to Casey for outstanding performance and lasting contributions to the school, community, and students and for exemplifying the ideals of SAVE. Story received the award at the 11th Annual SAVE Summit. The SAVE Summit concluded National Youth Violence Prevention Week across the country (March 26-30, 2007).
Casey has been an active, hardworking and dedicated SAVE member since she was in the sixth grade.
Casey has risen to the top of her chapter as leader and has helped to organize service projects, the SAVE
Club bulletin board, assemblies and led breakout sessions at the Summit. She is assisting in establishing
a peer mediation group at her school and organizing outreach to the elementary and surrounding middle schools.
Her advisor says that "Casey is the most motivated SAVE member I have ever had. She actively participates in
every meeting. I have relied on her to take a leadership role during all three years of membership and she has
never failed us." Congratulations, Casey!
