In February, in honor of Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, Tubman, a local domestic violence organization, held a video and poster contest.  Youth in grades 7-12 were invited to create a poster or video raising awareness about healthy teen relationships.  Eighth grader Grace Fick created a poster demonstrating the importance of trust in relationships, and she was awarded honorable mention.  Congratulations, Grace!
