Adil Abdulla, Grade 9, French Immersion Award

Adil Abdulla received the Grade 9 French Immersion Award.

CTV: Considering a career in technology

Case in point: As a Grade 8 student last year, Adil Abdulla was tops in his grade for academic marks. He created the school’s top science fair entry, participated in three sports teams, was on the school band and choir plus debating team, raised $25,000 in a charity walk, is active in his religion and mentions the likes of former Ontario premier, Mike Harris, as an acquaintance. It’s no wonder he won a total of five awards, including in my area for judging, science and tech. Afterwards, he told me he gets five to six hours of sleep each night and uses six calendars to keep his life straight. He plans to be a doctor and then his ultimate goal is to be a politician. The well-spoken young man gives a gentle shake of the head, no, when asked if tech was a career possibility.
