We congratulate the following schools on their participation in
S.A.V.E. (Students Against Violence Everywhere): Brunswick Elementary
School, Gary; Edgewood Junior High, Ellettsville; North High School,
Evansville; Reitz High School, Evansville.
SAVE is a student driven organization. Students learn about alternatives to violence and practice what they learn through school and community service projects. As they participate in SAVE activities, students learn conflict management and mediation skills and the virtues of good citizenship, civility, and nonviolence.
