In honour of Tessa Beauchamp's legacy, a story by Alistair Burns talks about students who were granted Tessa Beauchamp memorial scholarships for their hard work, passion, and involvement in sports and the community.
Dalton Anderson has been elected student prime minister of his high
school, and he has been the captain of his school's basketball team, but
the Grade 12 student at St. Patrick's Secondary School in Vancouver is
most proud of being awarded a Tessa Beauchamp memorial scholarship Jan.
19.
"I felt really honoured to receive this award, because so many people
held Tessa in such high regard," said Anderson. He spoke to The B.C. Catholic shortly before tip-off at a basketball practice.
"I have the same kind of values that I've read about Tessa:
hard-working, passionate, not only about sports but also extra-curricular
activities."
