PJ Barbeau Scholars Award
The P.J. Barbeau Scholars Award recognizes outstanding literary analysis and composition, a hallmark of the learning experience in Ms. Barbeau’s classroom. Although a single concept or theme can dominate a literary work, the layering of multiple ideas and influences has the potential for significant impact when the work is read closely. This scholarship, created by former students of P.J. Barbeau, reflects the desire for students to develop the awareness to closely read, analyze, and describe complex literature. As a component of that process, Ms. Barbeau created a classroom that was capacious enough to discuss different views while also fostering respect. She taught her students that they could disagree, sometimes vehemently, without being disagreeable. The winner’s essay should similarly reflect those values.
Frau Conti Scholars Award
The Frau Conti Scholars Award was created and funded by three of Frau Conti’s former students. The award recognizes the influence of Laura Conti in teaching Lindbergh students to think critically, express concepts clearly, and analyze issues from a wide range of perspectives. Frau’s classroom environment affords students the opportunity to grow from who they are, into what they may become. This scholarship reflects not only the effects of those lessons on previous students, but also their ongoing influence in so many lives. The winner’s entry should similarly reflect the aspirational tone of Frau’s classroom.
