On December 4th, twenty-four students were called down to the main office to receive their academic or citizenship awards for various departments with Freehold Township High School. These students were hand-picked by their teachers to be recognized as Students of the Month for the month of November. When given their custom certificates and pins, the Patriot Press asked them to say a few words about their corresponding department.
