Carl Sandburg High School announced that 124 students from the graduating class of 2017 have been recognized as Illinois State Scholars. The Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC), the state agency committed to helping to make college accessible and affordable for Illinois families, bestows this prestigious recognition to top Illinois high school students annually. This year, over 18,800 elite honorees join the other top state students honored for their academic achievements since the designation was first introduced in 1958. Illinois State Scholars represent approximately the top ten percent of high school seniors, hailing from 671 different high schools across the state. Selection is based on SAT or ACT scores and/or class rank at the end of the junior year.
“It is with great pride that we announce this year’s group of Illinois State Scholars,” said Principal Deb Baker. “Congratulations to our State Scholars for their commitment and hard work. We also want to commend their parents, teachers, coaches and mentors for helping these students achieve their goals. We wish all of the scholars the best as they pursue their future education and careers.”
