Congratulations to five Quibbletown Middle School students who were honored as overachievers at the school’s annual Veteran Frank Rivers Black History Month Over Achievers Award Ceremony!

The event was co-sponsored by the Plainfield-area NAACP and celebrated students who serve as positive role models, demonstrate resilience in the face of adversity, and show strong dedication to their academic success.

Honorees received certificates and medals presented by Plainfield-Area Branch President Sharon Robinson-Briggs and Quibbletown Principal William Gonzalez. Each award recipient shared heartfelt speeches reflecting on their personal journeys, the challenges they have overcome, and their aspirations for the future.

Congratulations to eighth-graders Marquis Bonds and Madison Glasco, seventh-graders Kailynn Diaz and Muhammed Munford, and sixth-grader Keanu Davis on this wonderful achievement!

The honorees were celebrated by proud families, supportive teachers, Board of Education members, and Superintendent Erskine R. Glover.
