Every year, teachers nominate and decide on one outstanding student per language from that year's graduating class who exemplifies the best traits in a language student. These students know the value of not only hard work and academic excellence, but of appreciating different languages and cultures to make connections and see the world in a much more diverse and beautiful way.
