Middle school awards day held at Tofield School

Tofield School held their middle school awards day on June 23, honouring 88 students grades five to eight in categories including Fine Arts Awards, Leadership Awards, and Most Improved Awards.

Grade six teacher, Ashley Netik, who organized the awards day event along with fellow teacher Dianna Woode, said it’s important to showcase students’ achievement and celebrate their hard work.

“It was great to be able to come together as a middle school and celebrate the achievements of our Titans. Our students work hard throughout the year and deserve the recognition,” she said. “I appreciate being able to work on a committee that’s so dedicated to showcasing our student success.”

Others on the organizing committee included Mrs. Buckley, Mrs. Erick, Mr. Kendall and Principal Mrs. Lazaruik.
