At each Gala, the Serra Development and Alumni Office also awards a student excellence trophy. Two years ago, the honoree was Urina Harrell '12 who is now doing very well at Duke. Last years honoree Ana-Lexis Bridewell '13 is a star student at Loyola Marymount. This year we are proud to honor Isiah Copeland. Isiah is Student Body President. We need a page to list the scholarships he has won already.
Isiah is pictured here with Vivian Bertrand, Serra's Junior-Senior Counselor.
