| Jared has been awarded the University of Ottawa’s 2018 Maker Award for his development of a prototype of a robotic hand. It is a fully 3D printed piece of assistive exoskeleton for people suffering from Parkinson’s disease. Its function is to negate the impact of unavoidable muscular shaking. https://engineering.uottawa.ca/maker-award |

Thank you to their parents and families who have supported them through their years at high school. It is also important to acknowledge the excellent teachers, at SRB, who challenge students to do their very best. Our educators make our classrooms a place where students can learn, ask questions, think critically, be creative, follow their hearts and succeed in life. It is also our teachers who spend a considerable amount of time writing individualized letters of reference for the different awards.
Gratitude should also be extended to Guidance Counsellors who provide emotional or educational support and compile these award applications for the different Universities.
Excellence is never an accident.
It is always the result of focused attention,
sincere effort, intelligent and skillful execution.
It represents wise choices among many alternatives.
