Fifteen Collegiate School seniors were inducted into the Cum Laude Society during today’s virtual Upper School Assembly. Also honored were the 13 students inducted into the Society last fall.
Head of School Penny Evins addressed viewers and said, “Today is about excellence. It’s about the application of effort and the quest for improvement. And when those two things are in concert, it allows for optimal outcomes.
“I hope each of us watching this assembly can continue to strive for our best, internally and externally, and feel motivated by the desire to attain our best selves, an ongoing journey and an ongoing search. I admire and I congratulate and I am so very proud of all of these students who are superior in their setting of goals and their achievement of excellence.”
Before recognizing all of the honorees, Upper School science teacher and Cum Laude Society Chapter Secretary Rebecca Hottman spoke to those viewing the assembly.
“As we celebrate the achievements of these students, I hope each of you watching today will find personal inspiration to pursue the Cum Laude Society’s core values of excellence, justice and honor in your lives,” she said.
