St. Joseph’s Academy Writing Center peer consultants, Student Ambassadors, Help Desk technicians and STEM Lab ambassadors and were honored for their service to the school as part of a morning assembly on April 16.

Jill Abadie, director of the Learning Center, recognized the senior peer consultants in the Writing Center.

Recognized for their valuable contributions to the school community were Lola Avery, Mary Ellis Beach, Camille Coco, Zaira Mayeux, Emmaline Ritter and Kaiser Stentiford.

During the 2024-2025 academic year, Student Ambassadors worked more than 2,000 hours, upholding and promoting the reputation, traditions and faith modeled by the Sisters of St. Joseph.
