At last week’s annual awards banquet hosted by the New Boston Chamber of Commerce, the highlight of the evening’s festivities was the presentation of the Chamber’s three annual honors. Each year the New Boston Chamber awards a Business of the Year, the Doye Corley Humanitarian of the Year and the Lloyd Wilson Citizen of the Year award.
This year’s recipient of the Lloyd Wilson Award is a man that earned the designation after years of serving the community and its youth. Chamber President Kayla Simmons presented the award this year to New Boston ISD educator Justin Arsenault. In her remarks, Simmons said, “This year’s recipient has dedicated countless hours to creating a better future for New Boston through our youth. He encourages and gives our youth tools for success. This person goes the extra mile regularly doing things far outside of their job title… Not only is this person present but they make sure the community knows about all of the achievements our youth are making. He has pride in his city, and it shows. New Boston has a much brighter future because of the trail that is being blazed by people like him.”
Justin Arsenault is an educator and school administrator with over 11 years of experience in New Boston ISD. Over the course of those years, he has had the privilege of working with students, staff, and the community to foster a culture of growth, achievement, and excellence. For the past five years, he has served as the Middle School Principal, a role that has allowed him to combine his passion for education with his competitive nature and coaching background.
