The College Board recently recognized Marathon High School seniors representing specific demographics who met high standards. All students earned a top GPA, stellar score on the SAT or PSAT, and met one of the other criteria including attending a rural school, are a first-generation college student, or identify as African American, Black, Hispanic, or Indigenous. 

“This year, the National Recognition Programs are recognizing more students than ever so that the outstanding academic abilities of more than 90,000 deserving students are not overlooked as they plan for their future,” said Amy Reitz, senior vice president of Big Future at College Board. “We’re proud to support colleges and universities that are committed to supporting all students, and our program offers one way they can strengthen their recruitment efforts to students that will thrive on their campus.”
