  This award is named in honor of Mr. Norm Smith, a greatly admired and respected teacher, coach, colleague, mentor and leader who served our community from June 2007 until August 2009.  Mr. Smith died unexpectedly, but his presence and his contributions to Gerstell Academy are memorialized with this award.  The Norm Smith Leadership Award is the most coveted Upper School award at Gerstell Academy and is given to the 12^th grade student who best represents and exemplifies our Gerstell Academy leadership model.  To be eligible for this award is a tremendous honor in itself.  To compete for this award, eligible students must consistently demonstrate Gerstell Academy leadership qualities in and out of the classroom, on and off the playing field, and on and off campus over the course of their Upper School careers.  This award, therefore, is more than a simple recognition of positive behavior and compliance, but recognizes the intentional use of leadership values and skills for improvement of themselves, their classmates, Gerstell Academy and the larger community.
