Honors Night Celebrates the Class of 2013

On Monday, April 15th, YHS held its Annual "Honors Night." The recipients of local, state and national college scholarships were announced. Also, student-selected "Spirit Award" recipients were presented. Each year, the senior class of YHS earns a phenomenal amount of scholarship dollars from local, state, and national donors.

A good portion of the scholarship dollars come from the generosity of local patrons and memorials. Over 50 locally given scholarships were announced at the event. When combined with the amount given by state and national organizations and area colleges and universities, the Class of 2013 has received over 2.4 million dollars, and that amount is likely to grow before graduation. Congratulations to all YHS scholars for their well-earned recognition!

Thanks to all of the donors, the YHS guidance department, all families, YPS staff, and the students for making this a true "event" to be proud of!
