Our unparalleled Higher Achievement Program finished its fun four-week run Friday as families and friends joined us for the HAP Awards ceremony in Scaccia Auditorium. 

Rising eighth graders from all over Western New York took classes in reading, English and math and competed in team sports and other activities with their homerooms and houses.

“This was a great summer of competition and hard work and we’re proud of all these young men,” said HAP Director and Assistant Director of Admission Brendan Tenney ’12. 

The ceremony was highlighted with the naming of Mr. HAP 2024: Nathan Wodaje of Buffalo and Notre Dame Academy.

In the first photo, Wodaje is second from left, along with fellow HAP award winners: 

Joe Goodly of Derby and Nichols School, far left (Jim Lilley Sportsmanship Award for the student who best shows respect for his opponent and graciousness in winning and losing); 

Will Malchoff of Hamburg (Spirit of HAP Award, for the student who other students look up to and is a great Man for Others to not just his homeroom, but his housemates);

Hayden Gutzman of Cheektowaga and St. Gregory the Great School (Pedro Arrupe Award for Service for the student who conducts himself as a true Man for Others).

For a complete list of awards and more on HAP 2024, see our post at canisiushigh.org or on Facebook.
