he Jesuit Secondary Education Association (JSEA) has
established an award to honor two seniors in each Jesuit high
school. The award plaque reads:
The development of each student’s God given talents to full
measure is a prominent goal of Jesuit secondary education.
Its aim, however, has never simply been the acquisition of
a store of information and the skills or preparation for a
career, though these are important in themselves and
useful to emerging Christian leaders. The ultimate aim of
Jesuit secondary education, is, rather, that full growth of the
personwhich leads to action – action that is suffusedwith the
spirit and presence of Jesus Christ, the Man for Others.
he Philippe B. Piedad ’93 Accolade Award is presented in
memory of Philippe to honor a student who possesses the
admirable characteristics which Phil possessed and shared
at Canisius High School. The award winner is selected by the
Canisius High School faculty, staff and administration.
