Pacifica High School senior Isaak Togia received the Association of California School Administrators (ACSA) “Every Student Succeeding Award” at a special breakfast celebration held on March 9th at Bowers Museum in Santa Ana.

The award honors “Student Superheroes” for overcoming significant obstacles to achieve success and the school leaders who help them along the way. Togia will be honored at ACSA’s Leadership Summit on November 8-10 at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront Hotel.

“Isaak is a perfect example of what can be achieved through hard work and a supportive school community like the one at Pacifica High School,” said Teri Rocco, Board of Education trustee. “We are so proud of the student leader he has become and cannot wait to see what he accomplishes next.”

With the help of his family and the staff at Pacifica High School, Togia has excelled in the classroom and on the football field. He earned an NCAA scholarship and was actively recruited by several Division 1 colleges before signing with San Jose State University. At school, he is a leader and mentor to students with special needs, athletes, and other students who face challenges.
