127 High School Seniors Are Named All-State Scholars

Public and private high school principals throughout the state nominated 665 seniors for consideration in the All-State Scholars program. A representative committee chose 127 winners from the nominees.

The scholars will receive the Robert C. Byrd federal honors scholarship of $1,500 which may be renewed for an additional three years if the student maintains satisfactory enrollment with their chosen college.

Selection of the All-State Scholars was based primarily on students' overall high school grade-point average and ACT or SAT scores. Judges also considered student statements, extracurricular activities, and leadership.

Sponsors for the All-State Scholars program include WEAC, the Association of Wisconsin School Administrators' Wisconsin Foundation for Educational Administration, Wisconsin State Journal, and the Department of Public Instruction.
