Eighth grader Ariana Alvarez awarded Sister Therese of Lisieux award at MCA

The 2017-18 Sister Therese of Lisieux award at Mount Carmel Academy was given to eighth grader Ariana Alvarez. She was  chosen by her peers for demonstrating the virtues of St. Therese: faith (including her Christian behavior to those around her), simplicity (putting others first, showing a positive attitude, helping in ways that often go unnoticed), and service (helping her classmates in small, thoughtful ways and being involved in service to her community.)
