Katherine is a quiet leader who prefers to lead by example. She has a strong work ethic and is always happy to help out wherever she is needed. 

Academically, Katherine received SRT’s Excellence in Physical Education, Spanish and Social Studies in Grade 9. She received the Award of Excellence in Earth Science in Grade 11 and she was our Top Spanish 12 student.  

Katherine has maintained a straight A average for every report card since Grade 8 and in 2017-18 she will receive SRT’s Gold Pin, awarded to graduating students who have maintained a straight A average for all five years of secondary school.  

When Katherine is not helping out somewhere in the school, she is playing on the school’s basketball, soccer and volleyball teams. Katherine has collected 600 points in athletics over the last four years and will be recognized at graduation for her athletic achievements.  

Katherine is also active in the community. She volunteers at the Britannia Mining Museum and at BC Children’s Hospital. Katherine will pursue a post-secondary degree in science, with a major in geology. She has been offered a $27,000 entrance scholarship to SFU. 

 

About Leaders of Tomorrow

The Maple Ridge – Pitt Meadows School District (SD42) has teamed up with the Maple Ridge News to celebrate local students who are making a difference at school and in the community. Elementary and secondary students featured as Leaders of Tomorrow were picked by their principals for making positive achievements in academics, sports, arts and community involvement.

The list is just a sample of outstanding students in the school district selected by their school during the 2017/18 school year – there are many others who were equally deserving of recognition for their exemplary achievements both inside and outside the classroom.

Every Tuesday throughout the school year, SD42 will profile a student selected as one of the 2018 Leaders of Tomorrow.
