Sanford Udis Scholars Honored
Armory College Prep seniors Darnailia Holmes and Estela Villacis were recognized as Sanford Udis scholars in the award’s third year.
The Sanford Udis Scholar Award, in honor of late physician Dr. Sanford Udis, is given to students that embody Dr. Udis’ life values of
making and living up to commitments and responsibilities
setting and not losing sight of goals
living an active life of exercise and sound diet as a means to achieve clear thinking and well being
Dr. Udis’ devotion to health and fitness transcended his work in the medical field; he completed more than nine marathons, including the New York City Marathon, and was a trustee emeritus at Brown University, where he was formerly president of the Brown University Alumni Association.
Darnailia and Estela, pictured below, returned to The Armory in late August for the conclusion of ACP summer programming, including the high school program’s production of Hamilton. Both students were named national QuestBridge Scholars earlier this year.
