27 of our outstanding Plymouth High School students have been awarded prestigious honors through the National Recognition Programs at College Board!
These awards celebrate the academic achievements of students from rural/small town areas, African American/Black, Hispanic/Latino, Indigenous/Native American, and first-generation backgrounds.
To earn this prestigious recognition, the students below needed to take the Fall 2023 PSAT/NMSQT or Spring PSAT 10 and score in the top 10% of test takers in their state. Alternatively, they could achieve a score of 3 or higher on two or more distinct AP exams in 9th or 10th grade. Additionally, they had to maintain a cumulative GPA of B+ or higher (at least 3.3) by the time of submission.
Being nationally recognized helps students get recruited by colleges, showcases their academic excellence, and opens doors to new opportunities. Congratulations to these scholars!
