Stonewall Jackson High School Senior Awards Newsletter 2020

Hello fellow Raiders, Every May, Stonewall Jackson High School gathers together to acknowledge our many achievements and award our top seniors for their efforts throughout the year and their high school career. It is a time of community and celebration. This year, however, we find ourselves facing new challenges: a truncated school year, social distancing, online learning, and an uncertain future. It often feels like there are more questions than answers. Here at SJ though, we are optimistic and confident about what lies ahead because of the keen minds and capable hands of the stewards of our future. The students featured in this newsletter - and all of our Raiders - are the key players of a bright tomorrow. Parents and guardians - thank you for sharing your children with us. Your love and support is so crucial to their success, and we recognize the sacrifices you make so their dreams can become a reality. Teachers - it is your hard work and dedication that help our students envision the many possible futures ahead. You inspire them and guide them. Seniors - we are so proud of you and your grit. Never let it be said that the path was easy or that you never had doubts. What makes you excellent is how you respond to challenges. The awards you have earned are not for the moments when learning came effortlessly, but for all the times you persevered when things got hard. We recognize and applaud your excellence! We wish we could be together to celebrate your accomplishments with you and your family, and we wish you all the best in wherever your journey takes you next. Stay safe, stay curious, and remember that you are all Stonewall Strong.

ART Brianna Lark Best Ceramic Piece Award Brianna's Mythology Mask reflects the kind of planning and process that underlies excellent works of art. She has shown patience and flexibility and a willingness to grow in all of her art this year. Cristina Chavez Best use of Iconography and Symbolism Award Cristy chose to represent the goddess Aphrodite for her mythology mask. She read a lot about her goddess and studied her attributes. Her drawings demonstrate Cristy's willingness to push herself to create a work of art that unified, aesthetically very pleasing, and extremely interesting. Nancy Bermudez Most Detail Oriented- Art I Although Nancy came to Art I as a senior, it's obvious that she loves to draw and paint. Her Prismacolor drawing was a labor of love and the rich colors along with the carefully rendered detail made it one of the best examples of the use of that medium. Adia Shannahan Creativity and Craftsmanship Award- Art IV AJ brings an abundance of skill, enthusiasm, and creativity to her work. She loves the creative process, especially the planning. Her detailed sketches and preliminary drawings add a robustness to her final works. Kathy Briones Creativity and Craftsmanship Award- Art II Kathy is an amazing artist who is willing to take risks with her work and create unique/inspiring works of art. Kathy is one of the most hard working and detail oriented students I've ever had. Guadalupe Espinal-Portillo Powerful Imagery in Art Award Guadalupe has a keen eye for creating very moving and interesting imagery with all of her artwork. She's a very skilled draftsman who sparks interest to her viewers. Andrew Wood Most Resilient Artist Award Andrew is an extremely persistent artist who is willing to put in the work in order to achieve the results that he's in pursuit of. Andrew works hard at his craft and achieves great results. Heela Sahely Most Realistic Computer Artwork Student Award Heela has the unique talent and ability to bring extreme realism to all of her work. Heela was very successful at transferring her traditional fine arts skills to a digital media. Marvin Castro Carranza Most Realistic Drawings and Paintings Award- Art II Marvin is an extremely skilled draftsman who often "wow'd" his classmates with his artistic abilities. Marvin excels at every art project and is very talented with his craft. Elizabeth Golden Most Engaged and Engaging Student Award Elizabeth is a teacher's dream student: organized, present hard-working, and willing to take artistic risks. That last skill has evolved over the three years that I have worked with Elizabeth. As a senior, she is confident, bold, has an open mindset, and is determined to always seek the challenge. Glenda Shul Alvarado Best Ceramic Piece Award Glenda's ceramic mask is an exemplary piece. From start to finish, Glenda was completely engaged in the creative process. Although her confidence was lagging at the start, Glenda persevered, and her hard work paid off.

BUSINESS Kelvy Argueta-Machado Outstanding Business Department Student Award Kelvy has taken many classes in our department (Accounting, CIS, Entrepreneurship, Programming, Economics and Personal Finance). In all of his classes he maintained top grades, his attendance was impeccable, and we all agree that he displays integrity, motivation, respect, kindness, consideration, and a passion for continued learning.

Kevin Ortega-Lopez Outstanding Capstone Engineering Student Award Our Capstone (senior level) Engineering class is demanding in many ways. The most difficult component is the independence awarded to each student. Only the most mature students can succeed. Kevin was ready for this level of independence years ago. He is such a dedicated and hard-working student that will see success in life. He is well deserving of this accolade and there will be many more in his lifetime. Joshua Chilcote The Tech Ed Award Each year we try to select a student that demonstrates exceptional school work and transcends the pathways we set for most students. It's often reserved for students that take every Tech Ed class we offer, but this year we selected a student that provided us with a first. Josh not only took every engineering class, and participated in Seaperch all four years, and VEX robotics, but this year he was our first student to be selected for the T.A.L.E.N.T. apprentice program at Lockheed Martin in Manassas. He took everything we could teach him, and successfully applied it to this exclusive work learning experience. We are so proud of him. For this reason, he is awarded the coveted Tech Ed Award for 2020.

He's someone I always see others going to for help, and I'm very proud of him. Angie Murillo Guevara Outstanding Earth Science Student Award Angie is a mature and extremely patient student. She's never afraid to ask questions or to check with her teachers about what she needs. She balances a busy work schedule while making sure to keep up with her schoolwork.

IB PROGRAMME AWARDS

IB Diploma Programme

Layan Wahdan IB Theory of Knowledge Student of the Year As a thoughtful and purposeful inquiry into different ways of knowing, and into different kinds of knowledge, TOK is composed almost entirely of questions. Layan has fulfilled both the letter and the spirit of the Theory of Knowledge course - theorizing about knowledge, asking unanswerable questions, and exploring implications. She has been philosopher, neuroscientist, and literary critic. She is inspired by both the humanities and the sciences; she inspires others to "dwell in possibility." IB Career-Related Programme Miguel Zepeda Personal and Professional Skills Student of the Year While Miguel's academic achievement is indeed noteworthy, I have also been impressed by Miguel's work ethic and drive. Miguel has been front and center in many of the initiatives that are moving student life forward at our school. His fellow group members trust Miguel implicitly and have entrusted the responsibility of many organization endeavors and programs to him. This is no way typical but is a testament to the character and drive of this individual. To recognize his many contributions and the quality of his work, Miguel earned the PPS student of the year award. Creativity, Action and Service Elizabeth Forbes IB CAS Student of the Year No student in my career has embodied the spirit of CAS quite like Elizabeth Forbes. CAS is not just something she does but has become central to who she is. She consistently looks for ways to serve others and finds joy and self-fulfillment in being a risk-taker. From ice-skating, to sewing and painting, to throwing an impromptu mermaid party because people needed a smile - Elizabeth has enriched her life and the lives of those around her with her CAS. I have no doubts that she is a lifelong learner and she has inspired me all year.
