How do you know your graduating student nominee?

My daughter

Tell us why they deserve to be nominated!

She’s a very driven and giving student. She had two schools she was doing research on involving sleeping patterns and concussions. She had to present her data to others and was recognized for her hard work. She started freshman year in 2020 right in the heart of Covid. Going away to school and having to be remote showed her resilience and willingness to learn.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about your graduating student nominee?

She puts her heart and soul into her work and with her friends as well.

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Francesca!
