Archmere Students Named Presidential Scholar Candidates
Seniors Zixin Cao, Jonathan Lobo, Michael Bannon and Rebecca Peet were named candidates for the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program.
The U.S. Presidential Scholars Program was established in 1964, by executive order of the President, to recognize and honor some of our nation's most distinguished graduating high school seniors. In 1979, the program was extended to recognize students who demonstrate exceptional talent in the visual, creative and performing arts. Each year, up to 141 students are named as Presidential Scholars, one of the nation's highest honors for high school students.
