Annual IJGA Awards and Achievements The end of the school year is a time to celebrate learning, celebrate growth and savor the accomplishments accrued along the way. IJGA Bishop Gate students had to overcome some pretty big large obstacles this past year, especially this spring with COVID-19 resulting in the merger of two academies. That is why this year’s list of award winners is so special. The world needs people who understand similarities and differences across cultures, who know the meaning of hard work and persistence, and who are not afraid to lead from the front. People with the values that last, like honesty, hard work, responsibility, fairness, generosity, and respect for others. We commend the following list of high achievers. 2020 List of Awards Academic Excellence Award This award recognizes students who have consistently performed at the highest level in their academic studies.
