Summa Cum Laude Admission Requirements
From the Student Handbook:
"Selected members of the Class of 2011, 2012 and 2013 will participate in the Summa program. This program is designed to challenge students who desire a more rigorous course of studies than the one provided by the state's academic honors diploma. Interested students should talk to their counselor regarding eligibility requirements."
In order to receive an invitation to participate in the program, the following steps are required:
-
Submit the Summa application;
-
Obtain three recommendations; two must be from teachers and one from an extracurricular moderator or coach;
-
Demonstrate a 3.85 G.P.A. by the end of freshman year but must have a 4.0 by the end of sophomore year.
-
Be enrolled in a foreign language course;
-
Obtain confirmation from the director of student life that the student is in good standing with regard to absence and discipline.
