College Board National Recognition Program awardees
Congrats to our @CollegeBoard National Recognition Program awardees! Our students are being recognized for their academic excellence and hard work in high school, and that’s a cause to celebrate.
THREE students at Rogers High School earned academic honors from @CollegeBoard National Recognition Program — confirmation of their hard work that they can showcase to colleges.
Every year, students like Victoria Ramos, Kamilya Thaxter and Similaki Vanderveer Lui from Rogers High School, Newport R.I., can earn academic recognition for their work in class and on @CollegeBoard assessments. Congratulations to our three amazing students.

Scholarship List
Link to Scholarship List Yes it is scholarship season!
Many of the scholarships listed are online scholarships. The general rule is if the scholarship listed has a link that means the application is online. If the scholarship on the list does not have an online link then the paper application is in Guidance in the filing cabinet under the "Scholarship" sign! (To the right of Ms. Gorman's desk)
For every scholarship you apply for you will need to fill out a Blue Transcript Request form. Those forms are available in Guidance on the table in front of Ms. Gorman's desk. If you are not able to come to Guidance you can email me and I can forward you an electronic fillable form.
Scholarship lists are also posted on Rogers High School website.
