Ocean Palms volunteers win district recognition

Posted

Ocean Palms Elementary School’s Lucy Miller and Ysabel Jack were named the 2020-21 St. Johns County School District winners of the Outstanding Volunteers of the Year this April in the adult and youth categories, respectively.

Among many accomplishments and volunteer efforts, Miller is best known for co-creating the hands-on science lab at the school, alongside Allison Aragon. Here, day-to-day science takes on a life of its own with experiments and hands-on interaction.

Jack, a student ambassador at the school, is also a mentor for students with higher social needs.

The district recognized Miller and Jack for these outstanding accomplishments.
