Tana embodies Project 351 values of kindness, compassion, humility, and gratitude. She is a model student and a leader amongst her peers. Tana always makes an effort to say hello to people and ask them how they are. She goes out of her way to make sure everyone is included and she is never afraid to do the right thing. Tana is a change-maker and has unlimited potential to lead positive change. One example of this was during Start with Hello week this year. Tana recognized her fellow peers who were upstanders in our school by completing upstander-grams for them. In addition to this, she completed an upstander gram for every teacher she had in Grade 6 and Grade 7 as well as upstander grams for her current Grade 8 teachers. Her notes to them shared her gratitude for the positive change they make in students' daily lives. While students were all encouraged to give an upstander in our school a shout-out, Tana went above and beyond by acknowledging and recognizing the positive change being made by both peers and teachers.
Tana is humble, approachable, accepting of others, and a team player. She works hard both in school and in her extracurricular activities. Tana is a member of the OMS chapter of the National Junior Honor Society, plays soccer, and participates in band. She is driven and motivated to continue to do great things and excel in whatever she sets her mind to.
Five other students in Grade 8 were nominated to be the Project 351 ambassador: Brennan Cox, Valentina de Carvalho, Eden Gonsalves, Jackson Gosule, and Victor Pereira. These students are recognized for their hard work, character, and commitment to service. Congratulations to all of our Project 351 nominees!
