Academic Achievements on Display at Annual Awards Ceremony

Prior to the Thanksgiving long weekend, students and their families joined St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) faculty and administration on October 6, 2022, for the annual Academic Awards Night celebrating their achievements from the previous academic year.

“Academic awards night represents the pinnacle of success for our students,” says David Lee ’94, SMCS Vice Principal. “This is the event at which we recognize their scholastic achievements which is the primary purpose of our school. We pursue excellence in all that we do, and we are proud to honour their accomplishments with their families.”

For the first time since 2019, the community was able to celebrate in-person, after two years of hosting the event online due to the pandemic.
