Every year, as the Ring Rose ceremony rolls around, a junior is awarded the Helen Sanders award for living the four Loretto core values: faith, community, justice, and respect.

This year the ceremony took place on April 13th.

The award was given to Victoria Torres, “I was really shocked when I heard my name.

I was almost not going to stand up because I thought it was someone else.”

It is a great accomplishment to receive the award.

Victoria’s great accomplishments in the arts, including her amazing photography skills, made her the perfect candidate for the Helen Sanders award.
