Ramona Convent’s Marley G. ’23 Selected as Winner at “Streets, Art, SAFE” Film Competition

The “Streets, Art, SAFE” Film Competition is a program for high school students to advocate for street safety through the arts, created by the non-profit organization Streets Are For Everyone (SAFE) who aims to improve the quality of life for pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers alike by reducing traffic fatalities to zero. This year, “Streets, Art, SAFE” had the highest number of PSAs submitted since the competition started 6 years ago, with over 300 students involved.

Ramona Convent Secondary School (RCSS) congratulates Marley G. ’23 whose PSA “Drunk Driving Is A Killer Disease” was selected as the winner in the “Best Driving Under The Influence PSA” category. Marley wrote, directed, and edited the powerful and informative PSA. Marley was supported by Cielo F. ’23 who co-directed and starred in the production along with Isabella H. ’23. Marley, Cielo, and Isabella, along with some adoring fans were in attendance at the celebration ceremony to accept their award. Click here to watch the video: https://youtu.be/_IIj0B-lIhw
