Education News Canada shared NC’s release on graduating student Kariann Gracey, the head of NC’s Class of 2020. On June 18, she will officially graduate from the Social Service Worker program with a 97.67% grade-point average, an achievement that has earned her the most prestigious award a Canadian student can receive – the Governor General’s Academic Medal.
Gracey is driven by her passion for social work and her mission to advocate for society’s most vulnerable:
“The Governor General’s Academic Medal really just affirms for me that I am making the right steps toward my goals,” she said. “Achieving high grades is one small part in my pursuit to learn all the material I possibly can to better assist those who are disadvantaged or oppressed by systems in our society.”
