“Riley is the captain of our team and has been doing a fantastic job of promoting the female game at all levels within our minor hockey association here in medicine hat. She has volunteered with numerous U7, U9 and U11 Teams within the community. She was also one of the key instructors during the female Hockey event in Alberta on February 1st. As well, over the past three weeks she has taken on the role of finding a female 7th skater to come out on the ice with us for warm-ups during our home games. We are so proud of how Riley continues to give back to the community in such a compassionate way! It definitely does not go unnoticed by parents within the community either!”

He consistently achieves 鈥淎鈥 level grades in all of his classes and goes above and beyond by taking on extra online courses in Chemistry, Physics and Spanish in addition to his full course load at school.

James was selected last October as one of three representatives of our school, QELE峁圫EN 脕, LE峁 Secondary, at the Trustees/ Student Forum for our district where he shared his insights and recommendations with District Trustees and Senior Administration.
Outside of school, James volunteers every week at the Victoria General Hospital providing companionship and conversation with patients.

Whether on the ice, in the classroom or in the community, James is a very dedicated, hard worker and supports all those around him.”
