2007
Presidential Scholar candidates
have been announced.
The
Boise
School District
has the largest number of graduating seniors in the state
of
Idaho
who qualify as candidates for this year’s Presidential
Scholars Program. Eight
out of eleven of those Boise District seniors are from
Boise
High. Congratulations
to Kyle Antonini, Amanda Baker, Nate Coffman, Betsy
Corrick, Mackenzie Fuentes, Abby Lute, Andrew Masser, and
Maya Nair. The
program was established in 1964, by executive order of the
President, to recognize and honor some of our nation’s
most distinguished graduating high school seniors.
Hats
off to
Boise
students Anna Mueller, Joe Burquist, Brendan Rickerd,
Julie Christensen, Kelly Woodward, Jennifer George, and
Laura Reed who will be participating in the All-Northwest
Orchestra in
Portland
,
Oregon
, Feb. 15-17.
The
Boise High Debate Team
has found a great amount of success in recent months. In
November, at the Canyon County Classic Tournament, Sam
Troutt and Devon Madsen shared the champion title with
Diedre Nelms and Katie McConnell in the novice division.
In the varsity division, Alex Abel and Colleen Smith tied
for first with Stephen Moncrief and Luke Maher.
At another local tournament, many were
recognized with speaker awards: Breanna
Brandon and Nicole Nabulsi tied for 5th speaker, Riley
Jones was awarded 3rd, and Case Van Dorne took home first.
In the varsity division, Alex Abel and Colleen Smith got
to quarterfinals and Alex was named 3rd speaker. Finally,
at the nationally recognized Conway Classic Tournament,
three Boise High novices were given speaker awards: Diedre
Nelms received 14th speaker, Max Reinhardt got 12th, and
Katie McConnell was awarded 4th. In the varsity division,
Colleen Smith and Alex Abel advanced to double octafinals
over fifty other teams; Alex Abel received 22nd speaker,
Erik Hasenoehrl got 5th speaker, and Luke Maher was 2nd
speaker out of 152 debaters.—thank
you to Mr. McGrady
Students
with a 3.5 GPA or better
will be honored at an Ice Cream Social this month:
Sophomores on Wed, Feb. 21, Juniors Thurs, Feb. 22
and Seniors Fri, Feb. 23.
Special thanks to TCBY for supplying us with these
treats to honor our honor students.
This is just a small way to let our students know
how much their hard work pays off.
Keep up the great work! –
