Rupert Principal Matt Moyer explained about the visits, “It is important for us to recognize the outstanding achievements and good citizenship displayed by our students.  In doing so, the award winners serve as role models for the rest of our students.  It is exciting to see the look on the faces of the students and the parents as they receive their awards and recognize the value of their behaviors.”
