SALEM — Mayor Cyndi Baronzzi Dickey visited the St Paul Salem Civics Club Friday to share her experiences as a community leader and encourage students to be engaged and involved citizens.

The new school club includes middle school students, fourth to seventh grade, who are learning about government and leadership. Throughout the year, various speakers will equip students with tools to serve the community with their unique gifts.

In the spring, Civics Club students will lead self-designed service projects in the Salem area.

The club is off to a great start with Dickey’s inspiring presentation and will continue by hosting local leaders at its Nov. 7 Branches of Government session.

Anyone who is interested in sponsoring these young civil servants or sharing their experiences in community leadership are encouraged to reach out to St. Paul School, Salem.

Starting at $2.99/week.
