Every year, the OCDSB Student Recognition Awards celebrate students who have demonstrated initiative, the will to succeed, the dedication to finish what they started, and the commitment to achieve their personal best. Congratulations to Naomi Kapoor, who is one of this year’s Student Recognition Award recipients!
As one of this past year’s Student Council Presidents, Naomi Kapoor has worked endlessly to build community within both the Student Council and the school community at John McCrae Secondary School. Naomi’s positive and inclusive leadership style really set the stage to motivate the council team, where she helped lead initiatives focused on building a community of innovation, caring, and social responsibility. Naomi also led her team in the creation of two platforms to share news and celebrate student voice: she was co-producer of the school’s weekly video newsletter, The Bulldog Banter, and was instrumental in the creation of the Paw Print, a digital newspaper that celebrates student accomplishments. She also led a Sock drive for the Youth Services Bureau and delegated a social media campaign with a focus on mental health support for youth. She has nurtured many opportunities for other student leaders as well, a true testament to her maturity and positive spirit!
