Now on display at the middle school campus is a wall highlighting words that are meaningful to the exhibit’s participating students – powerful words like respect, imagine and awesome.

The exhibition, which showcases photographs of various students holding up signs with their favorite words, is sponsored by Activity Avenue, a project of the BEST (Blackford Enrichment & Supervision Team) program.

“The project is going really well. We asked students, ‘What is the most important word to you?’ … We have roughly 44 photographs so far for the wall that we are developing, and more people interested in participating,” reported BJ Hathaway, assistant director of BEST.
