Criteria for Awards:

Each department gives the awards for Academic Performance and Personal Commitment. Although each department has its own specified criteria and focus, the following descriptions are shared understandings of the characteristics of the award recipients.

Academic Performance Award is awarded to the student who best characterizes the following criteria:
1. Highest overall achievement in the department, demonstrating both scholastic achievement and academic growth. This is indicated by the highest overall grade point average in most departments; however, in the visual and performing arts, the focus is more upon exceptional artistic work/ performance.

2. Seeks challenging work in the curriculum (e.g. advanced classes, multiple electives, or other evidence).

3. Outstanding performance in department classes/classroom leadership (measured by class grades, test scores, or anecdotal teacher evidence).

4. Commitment to departmental co-curricular activities or events.

5. Self-motivated and enthusiastic learner.

Personal Commitment Award is awarded to the student who consistently performs above and beyond the class expectations. This student does not necessarily have the highest GPA, but rather has set an example of diligent effort and impressive achievement. This student contributes to a positive classroom climate through exemplary self-discipline and focus.

Diploma with Honors
In 1997, legislation was enacted that increased the number of credits Ohio students would need in order to earn a high school diploma. In December 1998, the State Board of Education passed a resolution to increase the Diploma with Honors requirements for high school students who will graduate beginning September 15, 2001.

The student who completes the college preparatory curriculum in high school shall meet at least seven of the following eight criteria*:

1. Earn four units of English
2. Earn four units of mathematics including algebra I, algebra II, geometry, and an advanced math course or complete a four-year sequence of courses that contain equivalent content
3. Earn four units of science that develop concepts for physical, life, and earth and space sciences.
4. Earn four units of social studies
5. Earn either three units of one foreign language or two units each of two foreign languages (includes first year language in 8th grade)
6. Earn one unit of fine arts

		

7. Maintain an overall high school grade point average of at least 3.5 on a 4-point scale up to the last grading period of the senior year.
8. Obtain a score of 27 on the ACT or an equivalent composite score on the SAT (1280).

*Business/technology are not counted toward requirements, and may not be used to meet requirements. Electives are not counted toward requirements.

President’s Award for Outstanding Academic Excellence

1. Students are to earn a grade point average of 90 on a 100-point scale (an A- on a letter scale or a 3.5 on a 4.0 scale) through the fall semester.

2. Achieve in the 85th percentile or higher in math or reading on standardized achievement test such as the SAT or ACT.

President’s Award for Outstanding Academic Achievement

The purpose of this award is to recognize students who show outstanding educational growth, improvement, commitment or intellectual development in their academic subjects but do not meet the criteria for the President’s Award for Outstanding Academic Excellence. This award should not be compared to the President’s Award for Outstanding Academic Excellence nor seen as a second-tier award, for it recognizes a very different type of academic achievement. It is meant to encourage and reward students who work hard and give their best effort in school.
