Four Avon seniors were recently named National Recognition Program awardees by College Board, the education non-profit that administers the SAT and Advanced Placement program.

Seniors Avery L., Ella D., Katherine K. and Sydney M. were recognized with National Rural and Small Town awards based on their overall GPAs and scores on Advanced Placement tests and the PSAT. 

To be recognized as a National Recognition Program awardee by College Board, a student must maintain a 3.5 GPA and score in the top 10 percent on their PSAT or at least a 3 on two different AP tests. 

“These awards are tangible reminders of all the hard work these four students have put into their high school careers over these past few years,” said High School Principal Ryan Wagner. “I’m proud of them. This honor is well deserved.”
