Gabriella McCartney and Emily Jurasits

H. Frank Carey High School has announced that Gabriella McCartney and Emily Jurasits are the Seniors of the Month for December.

Gabriella is outgoing, hardworking and extremely kind. Not only is she very bright, being in the top 5% of the class, but her commitment to Carey is like none other. Her academic accomplishments have been recognized with inductions into the National, Social Studies, World Language, Art, Science, Math and English honor societies. She is a leader through and through as editor of the LOG, vice president of Hallways to Runways, corresponding secretary of Student Government Board, secretary for Girls for Girls, treasurer for the Senior High Mathletes and vice president of Mu Alpha Theta. Additionally, Gabriella is the 2022 Class Board student representative and Student Government grade representative, as well as a member of the Spanish Leadership Club, Think Pink and the Mural Club. She is also a talented athlete as a member of the varsity basketball and lacrosse teams, and was the homecoming queen.

Emily is the true essence of a well-rounded student. She is an exceptional athlete and displays her leadership skills through her role as captain of the varsity soccer team. An incredibly bright senior, Emily is a member of the National and Art honor societies. She is actively involved in multiple clubs, including the Class of 2022, Italian Culture Club and as vice president of the Photography Club. Her passion for photography has truly come to life as she is currently the historian for the Student Government and one of the editors in chief for the LOG. Her love of the arts doesn’t stop there. She takes additional art classes outside school to work on multi-faceted projects; and, at the same studio, she teaches her own classes to younger students ranging from ages 4-13. It is no surprise that this young lady is pursuing a future in art education. She has also been a sensational part of our musical society and currently holds the position of historian and public relations chairperson. She has dedicated countless hours to her school and community and her commitment has not gone unnoticed.

Congratulations, Gabriella and Emily!
