Last week카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Fall Convocation ceremonies saw the return of the in-person presentation of the Baillie Award for Excellence in Secondary School Teaching, which celebrates the lasting and positive impact that educators can have on their students카지노 게임 컬렉션� journey to post-secondary education.

Two high school teachers received their award on the Grant Hall stage at their student-nominator카지노 게임 컬렉션�s convocation ceremony.

Established by Chancellor Emeritus A. Charles Baillie, the award gives students who are graduating from Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s the opportunity to honour a former teacher who played a formative role on their path to higher education and to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s.

Rosalie Griffith, who taught biology and English at Westview Centennial Secondary School in North York, Ont., and is now the Principal at Newtonbrook Secondary School in North York, was nominated by Nana Boateng (BCmpH카지노 게임 컬렉션�22). Griffith카지노 게임 컬렉션�s experiences as a Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s alumna and as one of only three Black teacher candidates in the Bachelor of Education program in 1998, inspired Nana as a Black student to pursue and achieve his own goals. Nana credits Griffith카지노 게임 컬렉션�s example for several of the community roles he took on during his time at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s, including following in her footsteps as a residence don.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Ms. Griffith was a special teacher because she not only taught her students about the subject matter, but life skills and character education,카지노 게임 컬렉션� Boateng says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�As a Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s alum, she gave me so much advice about attending Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s, finding my path as a computing sciences scholar, and finding my home as a person of colour.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Fred Bortolussi, who teaches history, political science, and Canadian and world studies in Kemptville, Ont. at St. Michael Catholic High School, was nominated by Peyton Horning (BAH카지노 게임 컬렉션�22) for bringing history to life and connecting students to both past and current events on a personal level, encouraging participation and critical thinking. Even more, she says, Bortolussi taught her how to be a lifelong learner.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�He was teaching me that being a good student, a good teacher, a good human being is about soaking up all the knowledge, all the experience, all of the connections with each other that we possibly can,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Horning. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Mr. Bortolussi is the reason I카지노 게임 컬렉션�m going to be a good teacher, because it is from him that I have learned how to learn.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
