Award: Fox Contracting High School Scholarship

Anastasija Gavric did something that few student-athletes have been able to do when she arrived at Etobicoke Collegiate Institute. She made the Senior Girls Volleyball Team, and even more impressively, stepped on the court as a starter. Her athletic and leadership skills became evident immediately, and she was named captain of the squad in her second year, another rarity. In the classroom, she earned a mark of 97% in the challenging Grade Twelve Leadership class on her way to securing a spot on the honour roll. Her leadership abilities crossed borders, as she became a mentor and coach of the Junior Boys Volleyball Team.
