Congratulations to Sofia Petroccia, July Sproul Lanes Student of the Month

Written by Liz Burnett

We’re pleased to announce that the July Sproul Lanes Student of the Month is Archbishop John Carroll High School rising Senior Sofia Petroccia! To celebrate this recognition, Sofia received a Certificate of Achievement and looks forward to enjoying her award: a “Pizza Bowl” party courtesy of Sproul Lanes, our Sponsor of this program.

As a member of Carroll’s Community Service Corps (CSC), Sofia has delivered turkeys and Thanksgiving dinners and also wrapped and delivered Christmas gifts to needy families in the commu nity. She served as Manager of Carroll’s 2019 Softball Team, and was prepared to serve again this Spring but couldn’t because the season was cancelled. For the 2019-2020 school year, Sofia headed up the school’s Yearbook Committee. She’s also head of Carroll’s Student Ambassador Program, is the school’s #1 tour guide for visitors, and has helped 8th-graders and transfer students get comfortable in the school as they “shadowed” her for a day.

Since Freshman year, Sofia has served as a Class Representative on Carroll’s Student Council, and her leadership skills resulted in her recently being elected to serve as 2020-2021 Student Council President. A talented and hard-working student, she was inducted into the National Honor Society this past school year.

Sofia has studied dance since age 5, and now gives back by teaching young dancers ages 4-7 every Friday and Saturday. She enjoys being a member of ACTS (Archbishop Carroll Theatre Society), and has been in their plays every year.

If Sofia follows through on her plan to study Nursing (following in her mother’s footsteps), she thinks she’d like to work in labor and delivery.

Congratulations again, Sofia! We wish you a wonderful Senior year, full of many fond memories, and much success in college and beyond!
