It's crucial to start early and plan ahead. One of the best strategies is to become actively involved in your community and engage in various service activities. This involvement not only allows you to contribute meaningfully to your community but also demonstrates your commitment to service, which is a key criterion for nomination. By extending your reach and making a positive impact through service, you increase your chances of being recognized and nominated for the prestigious Silver Knight Awards.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </div> <div class="fsElement fsContent" id="fsEl_13976" data-use-new="true" > <div class="fsElementContent" > <h2><span class="fs_style_29"><span style="color:#2c3e50;">MEET THE SILVER KNIGHT NOMINEES</span></span></h2> </div> </div> </div> </div> </main> </div> </div> <footer id="fsFooter" class="fsFooter"> <div class=" fsBanner has-accred fsStyleAutoclear" id="fsEl_3644" data-settings-id="3565" data-use-new="true"> <section class="fsElement fsResourceElement fsGrid accreditation-logos" id="fsEl_13248" data-use-new="true" data-source-element-id="13248" data-source-page-id="1141" > <header> <h2 class="fsElementTitle">Accreditations</h2> </header> <div class="fsElementContent" > <div class="fsListItems fsStyleFiveColumns"><article class="fsResource fsStyleAutoclear fsResourceTypeImage"><figure><picture><img alt="" data-aspect-ratio="1.0" data-image-sizes="[{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_1/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:256},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_2/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:512},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_3/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:800},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_4/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:1200},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_5/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:1600},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto/v1666981219/aquinas/ziepbpisfoa0g4b1ppqg/BlueRibbonSEAL.png%22,%22width%22:1800}]" data-permitted-user="true" data-resource-title="BlueRibbonSEAL.png" data-resource-uuid="8b6fe4b7-c012-479d-abd2-ee00c195d987"></picture></figure></article></div> </div> </section> <div class="fsElement fsContainer cta-btn-container" id="fsEl_3645" data-use-new="true" > <div class="fsElementContent" > <div class="fsElement fsContent cta-btn-inner" id="fsEl_3646" data-use-new="true" > <div class="fsElementContent" > <ul> <li><a class="inquire" href="/fs/pages/394">Inquire</a></li> <li><a data-file-name="StThomasAquinas-WebsiteNoticeBlanket344976241.pdf" data-resource-uuid="487128cc-9980-448e-bdf7-84d2d9e7d7c6" href="/fs/resource-manager/view/487128cc-9980-448e-bdf7-84d2d9e7d7c6" target="_blank">Notice of a Data Security Incident</a></li> <li><a class="giving" data-page-name="Giving" href="/fs/pages/257">Giving</a></li> <li><a class="apply" href="https://stars.aquinas-sta.org/transferstudent/" target="_blank">Apply</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="fsElement fsContainer blue-row" id="fsEl_3647" data-use-new="true" > <div class="fsElementContent" > <div class="fsElement fsContent location-container" id="fsEl_3648" data-use-new="true" > <header> <div class="fsElementHeaderContent"> <a href="/fs/pages/2" data-page-name="Home">St. Thomas Aquinas</a> </div> </header> <div class="fsElementContent" > <div itemtype="http://schema.org/EducationalOrganization" class="school-details"> <div itemprop="name">St. Thomas Aquinas High School </div> <div itemprop="address" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"> <span itemprop="streetAddress">2801 SW 12th Street</span> <span itemprop="addressLocality">Ft.
