WHS Awards Assembly 2010


Thursday - May 6: The annual Wellsville High School Awards Assembly was held this past Thursday. Awards were presented to all high school students who excelled in an assortment of academic, athletic and extra curriculum activities. Principal Linda Rolley opened the assembly and turned it over to the officers of the Student Council.

Student Council officers this academic year are President Matt Gibbs, V.P. Taylor Buzzard, Secretary Josiah Hull and Co-Treasurers Britne Thomas & Rachel Vallera. The officers were recognized by Mr. Don Elliott.

The first awards presented was the OHSAA Awards. The Archie Griffin Award went to Joey Hall & Sierra Powell. The OHSAA Courageous Student Award was presented to Bubba Watkins and the prestigious OHSAA State Award went to Karen & Don Elliott. The Elliotts were cited for their ardent support and enthusiastic backing of all WHS athletic endeavours. Ms. Rolley stated they were faithful fans and were probably at more events than can be counted.

Certificates were presented to students that excelled in Math, Home Economics, Languages and Sciences. That was followed by student Office Workers, Cafeteria helpers, the different clubs and Yearbook staff. Recognition for the Varsity W Club was given to athletes that lettered in at least two sports.

Teacher of the Year was bestowed on Ms. Dawn McCambridge. The Rochester Institute of Technology Awards were won for the following: the Bausch & Lomb Award was given to Carli Powell. The Xerox Award for Innovation & Information Technology went to Dana Powell. The Frederick Douglas & Susan B. Anthony Award was won by Taylor Myers and the George Eastman Young Leaders Award was presented to Keila Lombardozzi.

Each year Wellsville's American Legion Post 70 sponsors Junior Year students for Buckeye Boys State & Girls State. It's one very full week of state government learning experience fun. This year Boys State will be held at Bowling Green State University June 12 through 20 and Bobby Sullivan & Mark Barton will represent Wellsville. Shannon Dickens & Keila Lombardozzi will be attending Girls State at Ashland University June 15 through 21.

The collage shown above was a hard one. No one was left out intentionally but there are only so many spaces.

Congratulations to all the award winners and activity participants. We even got an invitation to Bubba & Jason Dowling's Graduation Party. Thanks Bubba.
