Due to her determination and remarkable commitment to learning and academic success, Georgia Ostrowski, a first-year welding student, has been selected as the Gillette College April 2024 Student Success spotlight. 

 

With excellent attendance and determination, Georgia has shown an eagerness to learn and a passion for education that is truly inspiring. She has exemplified maturity and discipline and has taken on a leadership role among her fellow students.

“Georgia has the patience, the skills, the ability to think critically, and the leadership qualities needed to succeed and make them a valuable resource to our industry,” stated Troy Miller, a welding instructor at Gillette College. As she continues on her educational journey, we do not doubt that she will continue to achieve great things.
