Last Friday morning was Providence Academy’s annual College Book Awards and Sponsored Recognitions Ceremony, hosted by Providence Academy College Counseling. We announced 21 different college-sponsored awards honoring 24 members of the Class of 2021.
The recognition of juniors with college book awards and other college-sponsored prizes is both an annual tradition here at Providence Academy and an enduring tradition at college preparatory institutions across the globe. The Upper School leadership team meets annually to select students from the junior class for these awards. Selection is based on careful consideration of the criteria provided by the college or alumni association sponsor. A recording of Friday morning’s ceremony is available here.
Here is the list of the awards and recipients. We extend our congratulations once again to these students.
