12 THE NEW TANNER THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1998 AHS achievers honoured KeGauceitencrcetriy By FRANCES NIBLOCK The New Tanner It was standing room only at Acton High on Friday morning as proud parents cheered on their blushing children, over 60 in all, as they received Acton Achiever awards from school officials. Principal Joyce Bradley said they were recognizing those special students that characterize the values they strive for at Acton High in- cluding service, achievement and commitment. "We are recognizing stu- dents, who at various levels, have made' significant changes in their lives, for other people and for them- selves," Bradley said. "We know that when they leave us, they leave to go out and be the leaders in our communities in order that they can help us make the world a better place to be." Jamie Birrrell, James Metcalfe and Rob Turpin each received two awards. Jamie graduates this year with the distinction of hav- ing won the Halton gold medal for architectural CAD (computer aided design). Soccer coach Jamie Shep- herd, who also received an award as a volunteer coach, said Jamie excelled in his ef- forts on and off the court and was often pelted with old shoes and leather balls from fellow team members when he wanted to train even more. Arts teacher Sharon French said that when she met James Metcalfe he told her that he got good marks in art, but that he wanted to be known as a jock. "Last year, James had the lead in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown and played the role of Linus in a very touching and comedic way," French said, adding he also did superb jobs in this year's productions and talent show. Rob Turpin was honoured for his dedication in working with both the midget boys' and girls' basketball teams and for his academics.

"Rob made fun of most of the assignments that we did, but as we came along he has really shown creativity, origi- nality and something that I really respect, a pride in his work that I didn't see at the beginning of the year." Three students, Rebecca Austin, Tricia Johnson and James Mashinter received awards for achieving their full potential while at AHS. SUMMER PROGRAM for KIDS & ADULTS Cer re RTN!
