Sunflower Ambassadors
A student and staff member from each school
who exemplify the Blue Valley Virtues are nominated by their peers. One fourth, seventh and eleventh grader and a staff member at each school are selected by a committee of judges based on essays written about the nominee. These ambassadors are honored in their schools during BVEF Month as part of BVEF's support of character education.
