(GCEA)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Governor\u2019s Council of Economic Advisers announced yesterday the completion of another successful community transformation by Tinian Elementary School\u2019s Student Government Organization and the TES Youth Advisory Panel. With the supervision of three TES staff, the students rehabilitated and repainted the school\u2019s curbs through GCEA\u2019s Adopt-A-Median program to improve visibility and enhance safety on their campus.<\/p>\n<p>Monica Sanchez, the TES teacher who supervised the students, said the project provided an opportunity for students in the 4th through 6th grade to work together and complete the task as a team-building effort.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/TinianES-AAM-33-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-365251\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe students showed that they were proud to be a part of the project, and it was an honor for them to assist in making our school beautiful through visible curbs and safety for everyone. The students had fun helping each other even though it was hot,\u201d said Sanchez. She said the students collectively agreed that they all learned to work together. \u201cThe students were team players by being active, respectful with one another, coming on time for the days scheduled to paint the median, and were committed until the completion of the project.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>By sharing their experience, Sanchez noted that the SGO and YAP students hope to encourage others to adopt curbs and sidewalks around their schools and participate in other upcoming programs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/TinianES-AAM-22-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-365250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>GCEA thanks the TES SGO and YAP students and teachers for volunteering their time to give back to their community. As a result, all TES students will enjoy a safer, more visible pick-up and drop-off experience. GCEA welcomes more schools to join the Adopt-A-Median program and take active roles in improving the safety of students in and around their campuses. <\/p>\n<p>Photos of the project can be found on GCEA\u2019s Facebook page (@cnmieconomy) and GCEA\u2019s at cnmieconomy.com.
