Academic Block Awards Night Celebrates Students’ Achievement

Ian Jordan, Staff Reporter

On April 26, Los Banos High School held the Academic Awards Night in the MPB to recognize and reward students, grades 10 through 12 who have demonstrated and maintained academic excellence in the classroom. Many of the students who were awarded a prize had a minimum of a 3.5 GPA for at least two consecutive semesters.

The evening started off with a performance by the school’s Acapella/Chamber Singers Choir who did a rendition of the Star Spangled Banner and a series of traditional Christian chorales. 

One of the awards given for first year winners was a cardinal and gold colored embroidered patch with the LBHS symbol on it. Another award given out to students who have been recognized for their academic excellence in previous years is an LBHS honor pin, which is a metal pin that also has the LBHS logo on it. The school also gave out two $250 scholarship to graduating seniors Annalee Scott and Shirley Liu through a drawing of names for students who were present at the event.

At the end of the ceremony, cookies and drinks were provided for all attendees of the event.
