Medway Middle School Students Honored
Medway Middle School
Principal Craig Juelis and the
Medway School Committee are
pleased to announce that the
committee recognized five students
for their accomplishments
throughout the school year.
At the Medway School Committee
meeting on Thursday
night, April 11, eighth graders
Lile Simmons, Mia Hsieh, Isabelle
Basso, and seventh graders
Alexandra Montana and Sinead
Bergeron were all given an
Award of Excellence certificate
and were recognized by the committee
members for their work.
“We were thrilled to be able
to honor these outstanding students
for their great work, both
in and out of school,” Medway
School Committee Chair Diane
Borgatti said. “Each one of them
is a shining example of the type
of education our students receive
at Medway Public Schools and it
was a pleasure to host the kids
at our meeting last night, along
with their families and Principal
Juelis.”
Simmons was nominated as
the school’s Project 351 Ambassador
by the 8th grade teachers.
This year’s Project 351 community
service project was a Cradles
to Crayons clothing drive to
gather clothing for children in
need. Simmons organized the
drive at Medway Middle School
and, with the help of her friends,
successfully publicized the drive
throughout the school.
Lile is also involved in community
service projects outside of
school, helping to care for seeing
eye dogs.
Hsieh organized a fundraiser
for Type 1 diabetes research for
the second year in row.
This year’s fundraiser was a
March Madness 3-on-3 basketball
tournament for students.
Hsieh and her supporters organized
the tournament into two
brackets (Grades 5-6 and Grades
7-8), as well as recruited students
to help sell concessions and referee
each game. A total of 26

Students who participated
in the Science Fair worked with

teacher Larry Brown to identify
a topic of interest and pursue
either a research or experimental
project. Over the ensuing 10
weeks, they continued to meet to
conduct research and gain advice
from Brown in order to compete
their projects. The Science Fair
was held on Jan. 24 and the students’
projects were judged with
Montana, Bergeron and Basso
receiving top honors.
“What a nice evening for
these hard-working students to
be recognized and honored by
the school committee,” Principal
Juelis said. “These five students
represent just a small sample of
the amazing work being done by
our students at Medway Middle
School each and every day.”
