11 seniors part of the 2nd annual “Letter of Intent”Signing day Wednesday, April 29
Most are familiar with the athletic National Letter of Intent ceremonies held in the spring at high schools across the country. This year, Sutton Public Schools is holding their first Academic Letter of Intent ceremony for students who excel in the classroom. The criteria for recognition is for the student to accept a scholarship from the college they will attend that is specifically awarded for academic achievement.
On Wednesday, April 29, students and their parents, along with Sutton High School students, staff, and college personnel, were invited to commemorate the hard work of these students in the classroom. Language within the academic letter of intent signed by students speaks of their commitment to continued focus on excellence in the classroom and giving of their talents to the college they are attending. By signing, they are making a public statement that they will work diligently to maintain their established pattern of academic excellence beyond high school.
