Perseverance Award
This goes to students who have improved their GPA from Fall 2021 to Spring 2022 by .5 or more, whether they are adding AP and Honors courses to their schedule, raising their game, or absolutely crushing it- these students have all seen a big jump, and that only comes with hard work, and yes- perseverance.

Other Special Recognition from Teachers
Madeleine Clark: At the end of class Madeleine alerted me to a $20 bill that another student had left behind under their desk. The money was reunited with its relieved owner. A simple act of honesty and neighborliness such as this makes all the difference in creating a welcoming classroom and school. Thank you Madeleine!
Scott Kitay: Scott brings life, enthusiasm and participation to every English class. He gives 100 percent effort and is an excellent communicator.
Brianna McBride: Brianna is hard working and always smiling!
Sasha Gostev: Sasha is a naturally inquisitive young man, and we have long discussions after class about similarities and differences between the Russian and German languages. He's bright and a joy in class, and I have high hopes for his future in German! Gut gemacht!
Ava Chakalozian: What can I say? Every teacher wants a student like Ava and I was lucky enough to have her in German. She will excel as she continues, I'm sure!!
Mali Scherer: Mali came to Northgate in January of this year on her own initiative from Germany for a semester at an American High School. She has been a big help to me in advanced German, and always has a smile on her face: even when wearing a mask! We will miss her and wish her all the best in her further endeavors! Vielen, lieben Dank, Mali!
GO BRONCOS!
