2003 Student Recognition Awards

 

 

 

     Every year, the John D. Calandra Italian American Institute selects 20 or more New York City high school students to receive our Student Recognition Awards.  All recipients are graduating seniors of Italian decent, who will be enrolling in a CUNY college in the fall.  Nominations are sent to the Calandra Institute by assistant principals, guidance directors and counselors, and teachers from both public and parochial schools in The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island.

 

     While making selections among the nominees is always difficult, it is also heartwarming and inspiring to read about the lives and accomplishments of so many fine young men and women.  These students truly represent the best and brightest that our rich heritage and culture has to offer.

 

     The primary mission of the Calandra Institute remains that of fostering higher education among Italian Americans.  We realize how important it is to recognize young Italian Americans for their achievements, and to encourage them as they pursue their educational and career dreams.

 

     We are very proud of the Student Recognition Award winners for June 2003.  We, at the Calandra Institute, wish them every success in their future endeavors.  We know they will succeed.
