| Giovy Webb '16 Wins ABC7 Star Scholars Award |
Every year, high schools are invited to nominate up to four high-achieving seniors to apply for the ABC7 Star Scholars 2016 Award.
This year, Carondelet nominated:
Mackenzie Baker, Micaela Camozzi,
Vivian Vo, and Giovannah Webb
After making it through the semifinal round, Giovy was invited to the ABC7 Broadcasting Headquarters in San Francisco to participate in an in-person interview with a panel of journalists. She was ultimately selected as one of seven Star Scholars in the Bay Area, in recognition of
her outstanding academic achievement and exceptional commitment to her extracurricular activities.
Giovy will receive a monetary scholarship and her profile will be aired on the local news this summer!
In fact, a TV news crew from ABC7 will be on campus this Thursday, May 19 to interview Giovy and get a look at student life at Carondelet.
We'll post a link to the video on our Facebook page when it airs later this summer. Congratulations, Giovy!

| Seniors Model Their Own Gowns at Senior Ball |
At this year's Senior Ball, four very talented fashionistas were able to wear their original designs to the event. Nicole Bustamante, Micaela Camozzi, Emma Walsh and Christina Wong began taking Costume and Fashion Design classes freshman year, which is where they learned how to design and sew their own garments.
This exciting event gave these young designers a chance to showcase their exceptional skills with theses amazing gowns. Tres chic, ladies!

Athlete of The Week
SOFTBALL- Varsity
Keleva Salt '18
Last Monday, Keleva had 3 hits and all 3 RBI's in beating Granada 3-2. Keleva has been injured all season with a sore shoulder which has limited her, but it has not slowed her down. No one works harder at her craft. She spends hours working to be the best hitter she can be. Keleva leads the varsity with the most hits, highest batting average and most runs batted in. Keleva Salt is a great example to all her teammates on how to overcome injuries and strive to be the best!
Go, Cougars!
Keep up with all the action by following us on Twitter @Go_Carondelet or liking us on our Athletics Facebook page.
