Students from Alyssa Fialho’s 11th grade Advanced Placement English class created the ‘Vax the Field’ slogan for the SPS vaccination campaign.
Mayor Sarno states, “A big shout out to the Central High School students in Ms. Alyssa Fialho 11th grade AP English Class for creating the ‘Vax the Field’ Slogan. I want to thank and acknowledge Superintendent Daniel Warwick, SPS Director of Nursing Jeanne Clancy, Central High School Principal Tad Tokarz and especially Health and Human Services Commissioner Helen Caulton-Harris for their unyielding efforts to educate and provide this lifesaving vaccine to our student population. This outreach initiative is so important if we want to move forward and help mitigate the spread of this COVID-19 virus. Although our vaccination numbers are slowly improving, especially with our 30 and under age, we must remain vigilant and continue to provide these outreach initiatives for this age group. Thanks to Big Y President and CEO Charles D’Amour and his team at Big Y, and to Elms College we can provide these in-school vaccination clinics for our students.”
