High school seniors honored by national African American recognition program
Four Farmington Public Schools’ seniors were honored by the College Board National African American Recognition Program.
The selected students were Terrence Bartell, senior class president, and Alden Wiredu, of North Farmington High School, and Cameron Duplessis and Eric Winston of Farmington High School.
Through this designation, the teens received academic honors, and they were connected with universities across the country.
To qualify to receive a College Board National Recognition, students must identify as African American, Hispanic or Latinx, Indigenous, and/ or attend school in a rural area or small town; achieve the minimum requested PSAT/ NMSQT score; and earn a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher by the middle of their junior year.
“We are excited to see the accomplishments of our scholars being celebrated by such a prestigious organization,” said Bobbie Goodrum, assistant superintendent of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at Farmington Public Schools. “We are sure that these students will continue to excel in the future.”
