Hightstown Mayor Larry Quattrone and the borough council presented a proclamation of appreciation to Mrs. Virginia Nardino and her students at Hightstown High School for their work on the refurbishment of the Hightstown Borough gateway signs.
“It means so much to us that the students took time to contribute to the betterment of the borough,” said Mayor Quattrone, who made the presentation at the Aug. 15 council meeting.
Resident Gary Grubb spoke on the project and its beginnings, which he explained is a great, but simple example of community service. Although the six signs do not require painting every year, nearly half a dozen students gave back to their community under the leadership of Mrs. Nardino.
“Thank you again for encouraging your students to give back to their community. We look forward to working with you again in the beautification of Hightstown Borough,” said the mayor.
