Scholars are recognized and awarded during quarterly award ceremonies. All levels of success are highlighted to promote a positive and aspirational mindset around academic performance and character building.
After scholars achieve STARS status, students are given a special uniform t-shirt or hoodie that displays their accomplishments. Students can wear these STARS gear instead of the formal or gym uniform. This is a major incentive since students during this adolescent stage want to express themselves and a unique hoodie provides them that opportunity. Each STARS status has a distinct color.
