Four Allen County-Scottsville High School seniors received prestigious awards during Class Night ceremonies on Saturday, April 26. Houston Porter was selected for the Outstanding Senior Award. Emma Brown was presented with the Citizenship Award. Brenna Eaton and Dominic Vander Stroom received the Service to School and Community Award. The Outstanding Senior Award is given to the senior who “has excelled academically, is socially accepted, shows leadership skills, is a good citizen, and is involved in school activities.” The AC-SH faculty selected Porter for the honor. The Citizenship Award is presented to a senior who “must exhibit qualities of a good citizen---respect; honesty; integrity; and, concern for others. The student may be a leader or a follower, but must always be willing to accept their share of responsibility in any club or activity. The faculty based on her outstanding citizenship qualities selected Brown. The Service to School and Community Award is based on the belief that “service to mankind is the very best work of life.” To be considered, a senior must be involved in both activities at school and participate in community activities that are not associated with the school. This year, a tie in voting by the faculty led to Eaton and Vander Stroom both receiving the award.

Brooklynn Melton, sophomore, travelled with ACSHS’s Educators Rising chapter to the Kentucky State EdRising Conference in March 2025. While there, she beautifully delivered a speech about the defining moment in her life when she knew she wanted to become an educator–when she taught her first lesson. She represented Allen County Schools outstandingly and highlighted some of the innovative instructional work we are doing. Brooklynn’s moving speech delivery led her to place third in Kentucky and qualify to compete at the national level. We are so proud of her and all of her hard work!
