E.C. McTavish Awards 2008

Thirty-five years ago, the London Chamber of Commerce and city high school teachers founded the Ernie McTavish Awards, in memory of a former superintendent of operations known fondly as 'Mr. Integrity'.

The awards recognize graduating high school students, chosen by their teachers and peers, who have overcome some obstacle or challenge in their short lives. Some are new Canadians; others face challenges in their personal and family lives; and some continue to work through their own physical and emotional circumstances.

These young people are living examples of faith and hope for our future.

Today the program is sponsored entirely by District 11, Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation. Each student receives a $20 gift certificate from Chapters, a group photograph, congratulatory letters, a copy of the script, and a commemorative certificate.

The students were honoured at the Awards Dinner held at Sir George Ross Secondary School on April 24, 2008.
