SRO John Norton and students honored with region-wide awards

SRO John Norton and students honored with region-wide awards
Congratulations to GFHS students Tevyn Owira, Riley Donlon, Lily Cero, and Chase Weil for winning SAANYS Region 6 Leadership Awards on Monday. These awards recognize positive character, effort in the classroom, and involvement in co-curricular activities.

Additional congratulations to our School Resource Officer John Norton, who won the SAANYS Region 6 Friend of Education Award on Monday for his compassionate commitment to the students, staff, and families of  Glens Falls City Schools! John’s work goes far beyond the traditional duties of an SRO. He is a mentor, a protector, and a trusted confidant for countless students. His ability to connect with young people, de-escalate tense situations, and foster a safe and welcoming environment is a testament to his dedication and skill. His leadership on the district safety team ensures that all students and staff feel secure in their learning environment. Colleagues—including administrators, teachers, counselors, and social workers—rely on John’s sound judgment, quick wit, and professionalism when addressing both critical and sensitive situations. Thank you for your service, John!
