"Students and families faced numerous challenges over the last two years with remote learning, among other financial and personal difficulties," ISAC Executive Director Eric Zarnikow said in a statement. "As we continue to recover from the pandemic, these academic achievements are a credit to the hard work and dedication of the student scholars and their families, and to the support provided by teachers, mentors, counselors, and communities in helping students meet their goals and find success as they advance on their education and career paths."
