SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- A graduating senior at North Springs Charter High School has been named a 2016 Georgia Scholar.

The program, an initiative of the Georgia Department of Education, identifies and honors high school seniors who have achieved excellence in all phases of school and community life, including carrying “exemplary course loads” and excelling in all courses, successfully participating in inter-scholastic and extra-curricular activities.

Only 151 graduating seniors from schools across Georgia will receive the honor, which includes a seal for his or her diploma.

North Springs Charter's Luke Muehring is among the elite group of graduating seniors who will receive the designation.

“I offer my sincere congratulations to each of our 2016 Georgia Scholars,” State School Superintendent Richard Woods. “These students have worked extremely hard and have engaged with all aspects of the educational process, with the result that they are truly ready to learn, ready to live, and ready to lead. They have exemplary academic performance but they’ve also gained soft skills by taking on leadership roles within their schools and communities. I am confident we will hear great things about their accomplishments in the near future.”
