Students from Baker, Choctawhatchee, Crestview, Fort Walton Beach, Laurel Hill, and Niceville High Schools were recognized for their exceptional academic performance. Each honoree has earned a weighted GPA of 3.75 or higher, achieving the distinctions of cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude.
These well-rounded seniors have demonstrated academic excellence and made valuable contributions to their school communities through participation in the arts, athletics, and various clubs and organizations.
“We had an amazing evening celebrating our students’ hard work, determination, and success,” OCSD Superintendent Marcus Chambers said in a news release. “Each of these seniors has shown outstanding dedication throughout their high school years, and it’s an honor to recognize them for their achievements. I also want to sincerely thank the families, teachers, principals, and community partners who have helped support and guide these young scholars.”
A special moment during the ceremony included the announcement of the Peggy Gorday Bruner Award finalists and this year’s recipient, Tina Le, from Choctawhatchee High School. The award honors a senior who exemplifies excellence in and out of the classroom.
