“.My study of the Italian language and culture has allowed me to discover a passion of mine and learn more about my heritage that has shaped me into the individual that I am. I am fortunate to continue my studies in Italian and extend my passion to others!”
Eliana Cracchiolo
“I am grateful to receive the ITANJ High School Award, which I will put toward continuing my Italian studies. This award is a meaningful reminder of the many ways the Italian language and culture have shaped who I am today. In college, I plan to join the Italian club, study abroad in Italy, and continue taking Italian courses. As someone with an Italian heritage, I am excited to reconnect with relatives again in Italy, experiencing what it truly means to be an Italian.”
