Featured speakers for the Silver High School Academic Letter Awards Ceremony held the evening of April 30, 2015 at the SHS Little Theatre were Luis Terrazas, second-year academic letter recipient and Sinea Runnels, third-year recipient.


The Academic Letter Award is presented to students who qualify by maintaining at least a 3.75 GPA for three consecutive semesters. Eligible students are also required to fill out an application, prepare a resume, prepare an autobiography, and provide two letters of recommendation. The final step in the application process is an interview with at least a committee of community members. The second year recipients must maintain at least a 3.75 GPA for five consecutive semesters and the third year recipients must maintain a 3.75 for seven consecutive semesters. This is the 22nd year we have been able to honor the candidates at a ceremony. It is our hope that the Academic Letter Awards will be a successful event for many years to come. Thank you for joining us in congratulating our Academic Letter ۬recipients.
