I was so happy to present Dana Doyle with the School Crossing Guard of the Year Award on behalf of PEI Home and School Federation today.

I’ve known Dana for a long time—we were parents at Prince Street at the same time—and when I first proposed that we start recognizing school crossing guards, it was people like Dana I had in my mind.

When our board of directors selected Dana from those nominated (I recused myself), I was delighted, as she typifies everything that makes a great crossing guard great.
