The SAVE Promise Club held its first meeting of the new school year on September 8 after school in Room 125.

The goal of the SAVE Promise Club is to empower youth to take a role in increasing school safety and violence prevention.The club has many exciting events coming up that bring a fun way to raise awareness on violence prevention and mental health.

“Some events we are planning on doing is a SAVE x Morgan’s Message Football game theme,” Senior President Sarah McCann said. “We would like to educate the school on how SAVE and Morgan’s Message are major mental health organizations, specifically Morgan’s Message with athlete mental health and what better place to spread the message than a football game.”

Mrs. Bregoli, one of Law’s special education teachers, is SAVE’s new Advisor this year.

“I wanted to take over as Advisor this year because I believe every kid should have someone to turn to, whether that’s a friend, teacher or trusted adult in the building,” Bregoli said. “No one should ever feel alone and I want to help spread our positive, friendly supportive mission to our community.”

Joining SAVE helps spread awareness about the global issue of mental health.

“People should join the club because it is a great way to spread awareness about mental health and it is such an important topic worldwide,” Senior Vice President Melissa Servas said.

The club goes on numerous field trips and hopes to create lifelong memories for its members.

“Some of my favorite memories are going to the Save Summit in Philadelphia and the hot cocoa carts we do every year,” junior Aislyn McKernan said.

SAVE Promise Clubs around the world come together to help provide a safe and inclusive environment for students and members of the Law community.

“The club works with organizations across the school, state, and nation that have a positive impact on students here at JLHS,” Law Principal Mr. Darcy said. “The club provides a safe, supportive and inclusive environment for every student and member of our school community.”
