Five high school seniors
from the Lake Oswego School District
have been selected as candidates for the United States Presidential
Scholars Program.
Congratulations to Matthew Krane, Lakeridge High School; Emily Gaddis,
Lake Oswego High School; Elijah Kolmes, Lake Oswego High School; Kemy
Lin, Lake Oswego High School; and John Murray, Lake Oswego High School.
The United States Presidential Scholars Program was established in 1964
to recognize and honor some of the nation's most distinguished
graduating high school seniors. The program is administered by the US
Department of Education. Each year up to 141 students are named as
Presidential Scholars.
Candidates are selected by the program based on their exceptional scores
on the College Board SAT or the ACT Assessment. Candidates are invited
to submit materials for review, including essays, self-assessments,
secondary school reports and transcripts. Semifinalists will be
identified in early April.
Congratulations to these students for their outstanding academic
achievement.
