Maurane Cloutier

COMMITTED STUDENT AVENIR

Committed to bringing young people together thanks to unifying projects

Ask any student at De Rochebelle high school, regardless of what year they’re in, if they know Maurane Cloutier and they will undoubtedly reply: “but of course I now her, she’s the school vice-president. She’s easy to spot, she’s involved in everything.” The Secondary 4 student is cheerful and has overflowing enthusiasm and originality, and strives by all available means to transmit the energy that spurs her on to all her fellow students. Student representative, member of the badminton team, collaborator for the Gala Méritas for two years, volunteer for the Terry Fox Foundation, Leucan and Baluchon Alzheimer, Maurane always ends up finding a project that grabs her attention. And if the project doesn’t exist, she creates it.

Charlie Williams

PERSEVERING STUDENT AVENIR

Committed to sports as a way of finding the road to success

Categorized at the end of elementary school as an unruly child and thus assigned to a special education class upon entering high school, Charlie Williams, a student at Saint-Laurent high school, has been through some hard times. The victim of mockery from his fellow students and sometimes provoking angry responses from his teachers, one day he decided he’d had enough of being at a standstill and being told he’d never make any headway. Today, Charlie draws motivation from his love of basketball, and has fought back, making up for lost time and dreaming of going on to university in a not so distant future.
