Celebrating Outstanding Students
May 11, 2020
Every year, we celebrate exceptional juniors and seniors at the awards assembly. This year, the assembly was re-imagined as a YouTube live premiere event, where our community gathered to watch and comment together as the recipients were announced. More than 500 people watched live, and another thousand have had the opportunity to watch after the premiere.
The ceremony is available to watch on YouTube.
Congratulations to the award winners!
