Celebrating Our Soaring Students and Striving for Excellence Award Recipients

At our end-of-year assemblies, we proudly celebrated our Soaring Student Award recipients for the month of June. Please join us in congratulating these outstanding students!

A Soaring Student is someone who shines brightly in our school community. They work hard in class, help their peers, and always try their best. Like a raven soaring high in the sky, these students rise above challenges with kindness, creativity, and a positive attitude. We are proud to recognize them as role models who help make Riverstone a better place to learn and grow.

We also had the honour of recognizing this year’s recipients of the Striving for Excellence Award, presented by the Grande Prairie Public School Division Education Foundation. This award is given annually to students in Grades 4–8 who demonstrate outstanding effort and achievement.

The Education Foundation is a non-profit charity that helps support student learning by funding programs and opportunities not covered by regular school budgets. Thanks to the generosity of local donors, the Foundation supports school nutrition programs, field trips, tutoring, and scholarships—helping ensure all students have the chance to thrive.

In addition to being recognized at our assembly, award recipients will receive an invitation over the summer to attend a special celebration this fall with other honorees from across the Division.

We are so proud of all our award winners and grateful to the Education Foundation for supporting student success in our schools and beyond!
