The Freshman Scholars program was created to recognize and reward exceptional effort and achievement in students during their first year of high school. Freshman year is a transitional period, and CHAMP members applaud the students’ success in managing their time and responsibilities, while attaining high academic standards.
Freshman Scholars are announced at the end of each
semester of freshman year. They are the ten students with the highest GPAs
in the class. Students are awarded with a letter of commendation and a
gift certificate donated by CJ’s HighMarks, and their names are posted in the
academic honors display case at the high school.
