If I had to choose one student from Sacred Heart High School that exemplifies the nomination criteria of integrity, it is Annika Bahrey. Annika has repeatedly demonstrated that she will choose what is right obver what is fun, fast, or easy when faced with difficult decisions. She has always stayed true to herself, her convictions, and her beliefs and has never wavered in them.

Annika is a quiet leader in the school. Not only has she excelled in academics, achieving academic proficiency in Grades 9, 10 and 11, but she also has taken on leadership roles through SRC and yearbook. She is an athlete in cross country and shows dedication to her training there as well. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellence are evident in everything she does, whether it's her academic work or her involvement in extracurricular activities. Despite her quiet demeanor, Annika leads by example, inspiring others through her hard work, dedication, and thoughtful interactions. She is the type of leader who brings out the best in everyone around her, making her a deserving candidate for this award.

Annika's Senior English teacher and SRC advisor had the following to say: "I have had the pleasure of working with Annika in our Student Leadership Council and as a classroom teacher. Annika has been part of SRC since grade 9. As amazing as SRC is to be part of. it is often a grueling process of planning events with very little thanks at the end. Annika signs up to be a leader on any task she has. As an SRC advisor I know when Annika signs up I do not need to follow up to make sure she remembers. She is reliable. She goes above and beyond in every single assignment she completes. I had the opportunity to teach her English two times and she went above and beyond on every single assignment."

Annika's Yearbook advisor said the following: "As the Yearbook Editor, Annika has exemplified the qualities of a quiet yet impactful leader. What stands out most about Annika is her kindness and inclusiveness - she consistently ensures that her peers feel valued and supported, especially during group work and at yearbook meetings. Her willingness to take on tasks with a positive attitude and complete them with reliability makes her someone who can always be counted on."
