Flagler County Sheriff's Office Youth Services Commander Kim Burroughs visited three local schools June 3 to present three exceptional students with awards for being “Great Kids” for the month of May 2021.
“We are ending the school year with presenting three remarkable kids in Flagler County with the Sheriff’s Great Kid Awards,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “The kids receiving the awards for May are all doing wonderful things throughout our schools and community. They’ve shown many leadership qualities, as well as kindness and respect to their teachers and peers. We want them to know we appreciate their efforts and hope they’ll continue to represent our county in great ways. We are here to help and support their goals in every way possible.”
Brayden Murray is a fourth-grade student at Imagine School Town Center and is a participant in the PAL Run Flagler Race Series. On our first race of the spring series, Brayden showed his integrity by ensuring none of our runners had to run alone. Brayden completed his own race and ran alongside each of our race finishers for the next few races to provide support and encouragement to get them to finish strong. He exemplifies the personality traits of a “great kid” and great friend.
Grayson Blanchard is a seventh-grade student at Buddy Taylor Middle School. The FCSO recognizes him for maintaining an "A" honor roll in his advanced classes and honoring the responsibility that is required to maintain progress with his schoolwork and individual goals. He is a model Eagle and a model citizen in Flagler County, following all of the BTMS expectations and treating his classmates and school staff with respect.
Michael De Beauvoir is a senior at Matanzas High School. He has taken part in Interact Club with Mr. Deceglie, Book Club with Mr. Keen, and Key Club with Ms. Summerlot. He has participated in the Flagler Beach cleanup and with the food pantry and food distribution. He is also a full-time volunteer during the April blood drive with One Blood and Key Club. Michael is a student who continues to exemplify great behavior and supports those around him.
The “Great Kids” award is presented by the sheriff to students who show respect for their peers, help others, work hard to do well in academics and represent themselves, their family and their school with great character. The recipients for the awards are nominated by Flagler County Sheriff’s Office school resource deputies and Flagler Schools, and are awarded on a monthly basis to one elementary, middle, and high school student.
