Posted on: October 31, 2022
Congratulations to two Taylor High School students, Henry Hawkins and Katherine Cruze, who are two of 62,000 students from across the country to earn academic honors from the College Board’s National Recognition Programs!

Congratulations to two Taylor High School students, Henry Hawkins and Katherine Cruze, who are two of 62,000 students from across the country to earn academic honors from the College Board’s National Recognition Programs! These National Recognition Programs grant underrepresented students with academic honors that can be included on college and scholarship applications and connect students with universities across the country, helping them stand out during the admissions process. Colleges and scholarship programs use these honors to identify students from underrepresented groups through College Board’s Student Search Service.

Both Henry and Katherine earned this recognition by excelling on their PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, or AP Exams and in their classrooms. Students who may be eligible have a GPA of 3.5 or higher and have excelled on the PSAT/NMSQT or PSAT 10, or earned a score of 3 or higher on two or more AP Exams and attend school in a rural area or small town. Both students will be awarded at the beginning of the next school year.

When THS Counselor, Katie Ryan was made aware of the recognitions, she stated “Henry and Katherine are excellent students on all levels. Their hard work has paid off and we are so excited to see what the future holds for these outstanding students.” 

We are so proud of both of them and know this incredible opportunity will help with a positive start to their college years.
