A special group of students from Anglophone West School
District who have worked extremely hard to make positive and lasting changes in
their lives received Turnaround Achievement Awards.
This is the 23rd year students from schools within
the Fredericton and Oromocto Education Centres of the Anglophone West School District
received awards.
A ceremony took place on April 19 in Fredericton.
The main purpose of the Turnaround Achievement Awards
Program is to reward students who have shown the most effort, commitment and
perseverance in turning around their lives. It affirms the true spirit of
education: to assist youth in facing challenges and to redirect their lives so
that they may lead a productive future.
The program also recognizes education’s unsung heroes. Heather Cripps
from Gesner Street Elementary School and Andrew Culberson from Fredericton High School each received the Turnaround Achievement
Educator of the Year Award.
“It is not always easy to persevere in the face of adversity,”
said David McTimoney, superintendent, Anglophone West School District. “I am
extremely proud of each and every one of our students, and our faculty and
staff members who didn’t give up on these students.”
