Breakfast of Champions Spring 2017
Starting the Day Off Right With Breakfast of Champions
The Spring 2017 Celebration
It’s the most important meal of the day, “they” say, but at Sayville High School, the semiannual Breakfast of Champions–a fifteen year tradition–is important for other reasons. It is a time to stop and take note of those students who through their positive conduct have made a difference in the lives of others and provided the essential components for a successful High School Community.
During her words of welcome to the twenty-three 2017 Spring Breakfast of Champions recipients and their families, Assistant Principal Jillian Makris acknowledged that “…these students aren’t here because of one solitary act that they have performed. They are here for their daily contributions. These are the students who truly help to make up the moral fabric of our school community. They’re driven by an innate set of values and they are always striving to be their best…not simply in school work or a grade on the transcript, but really in life as human beings.”
The deserving Champs were nominated by Sayville High School teachers and staff and recognized for consistently demonstrating qualities of kindness, humility, motivation, compassion, enthusiasm, diligence, and good citizenship beyond the classroom or athletic field or for achieving their personal best by striving to overcome major obstacles.
After each staff personalized his or her appreciation for a particular recipient (see comments below), each student received a Breakfast of Champions certificate and plaque created with their portrait on a Wheaties Box background.
The heartwarming Breakfast ended with a tasty breakfast of scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs’ n cheese, French Toast, bacon, sausage patties, fresh fruit bowl, assorted bagels and rolls that were served up with a smile by the Sayville Food Service. And special thanks go to the members of the Sayville String Quartet and Mr. Ari Kramer for the lovely musical interludes.
