The Friends Medallion

The students at Friends School in Virginia Beach practice the Quaker concepts of simplicity, cooperation, harmony and community in their daily school life. Children are taught positive ways to resolve conflict, work together for the greater good and learn early that through friendship and cooperation, all things are possible. This year, for the second time, to celebrate those books that promote such goals, the elementary students at Virginia Beach Friends School will award The Friends Medallion to the book that they -- the students themselves -- feel best reflects the theme of friendship in its story.
