Batavia High School announced 76 students from the 2024 graduating class have been designated as Illinois State Scholars.
A list of the scholars is at bhs.bps101.net/news.
The Illinois Student Assistance Commission, the state’s college access and financial aid agency, presents this recognition of academic achievement annually to exceptional Illinois high school students.
This year, almost 16,700 honorees join the outstanding students who have been honored since the designation was first introduced in 1958.
The Illinois State Scholar designation is a nonmonetary award. Each state scholar will receive a congratulatory letter and certificate of achievement from ISAC.
Awardees can download an official Illinois State Scholar Program badge to display on their online profiles and social media platforms and share with their high school counselors, colleges, employers, family members and others.
Note the Illinois State Scholar Program announces honorees based on the year they would begin any postsecondary education and not based on the year they graduate from high school.
