Each year, the Jesse Isabelle Spirit Award is given to a child at Perkins School for the Blind who exhibits great passion and spirit in memory of Jesse Isabelle. This year, the Jesse Isabelle Spirit Award recipient was Xavier Fidler.
The 2023 Jesse Isabelle Spirit Award was received by Xavier Fidler during the Lower School Graduation at Perkins School for the Blind. We are amazed by Xavier’s tremendous achievements of not only graduating from the Lower School, but also exhibiting such passion and spirit each day.
It brings us great joy to present the Spirit Award each year, and we look forward to continuing this tradition to honor and remember Jesse, who enjoyed the happiest years of his life at Perkins School for the Blind. Thank you to all who make this tribute possible, and congratulations to Xavier Fidler.
