The group honored Tuesday included students from Allen, Butler, Edmonson, Logan, and Simpson counties. Together the group has an average ACT composite score of 28 and a grade-point average of 3.88. The group includes 16 Kentucky Governor’s Scholars---including Burciaga, Clarke, Cook, Payne, and Wheat from AC-SH---and one National Merit Semifinalist.
Outstanding students from schools in Warren County, Barren County, and areas surrounding Owensboro, Elizabethtown, Louisville, Lexington, and Northern Kentucky will be recognized at similar luncheons later in the fall.
