More Information

LAWRENCE — Students from six Kansas high schools will be honored Wednesday, Sept. 23, by the University of Kansas Alumni Association and KU Endowment.

A total of 95 seniors from high schools in Leavenworth County will be recognized for their academic achievements and named Kansas Honor Scholars at a 7 p.m. reception program at the Riverfront Community Center, 123 S. Esplanade St.

The Kansas Honors Program began in 1971 and has honored more than 107,000 students. Scholars rank in the top 10 percent of their high school senior classes and are selected regardless of occupational plans or higher-education goals. Honorees’ names are listed below.

During the ceremony, each student will receive an American Heritage Dictionary, in both hardback and electronic versions, presented by Michelle Miles, assistant director of Kansas programs for the KU Alumni Association.

Diana Carlin, professor of communications studies, will speak to the students and their parents and guests. Parents and area alumni are welcome to attend.

Community volunteers collect reservations, coordinate details and serve as local contacts for the event. Bianca Elliott of Linwood will be the county coordinator and site coordinator.

The Kansas Honors Program is made possible through KU Endowment and proceeds from the Jayhawk license plate program.
