The Limestone District School Board of Trustees honoured 11 secondary students with 2021 Limestone Student Achievers Awards at its regular meeting May 19, 2021.
The Limestone Student Achievers Award recognize outstanding achievements of secondary students whose exceptional accomplishments merit recognition beyond the separate categories of awards at the school level. Recipients should have demonstrated exemplary achievement in all three categories: leadership; positive attitude, energy, and school spirit; and academic standing.
Among the recipients being recognized is Napanee District Secondary School student Ashley Groth, who was recognized for maintaining an average in the 90’s throughout her time at NDDS, being a dedicated athlete, as well as providing tutoring to younger students as they try to navigate their courses during the pandemic and so much more.
Each student will receive a medal, a framed award certificate and a lapel pin. Their names will be recorded on a plaque and displayed in the Barry C. O’Connor Board Room at the Education Centre.
In congratulating the recipients, Board Chair Suzanne Ruttan said the achievements of these exemplary students make our schools better. “These students inspire their fellow students, staff and community members alike. This award recognizes their exemplary contributions to strategic priorities of wellness, collaboration, and innovation in supporting others during the school year.”
Mini profiles and images of each student is available on the board website.
