HOPE – Two eighth grade students at Hope Academy of Public Service were named as the 50th Boy and Girl of 2022, as year-end academic honors were announced May 25.
HAPS Principal Dr. Carol Ann Duke named Ivan Sanchez and Madison Phillips as the 2022 honorees in ceremonies at Hempstead Hall.
Dr. Duke established the award in 2017 to honor the boy and girl at HAPS best fitting the concept as explained in a 1923 academic essay by Dr. Frank Crane.
“About one boy or girl in fifty will remain after the event and of their own accord and offer to help clear the things up or to wash the dishes,” the essay notes.
The 50th Boy and Girl demonstrate disciplined conduct, friendliness, honesty, sportsmanship and integrity.
“They are not afraid to do right nor ashamed to be decent; they look you straight in the eye,” the essay explains. “They tell the truth, whether the consequences to them are unpleasant or not. They stand up straight and are honest.”
