On Tuesday, May 1, York Suburban High School celebrated its annual awards night recognizing scholarship recipients and other school-based award winners. This year, 29 different honors were bestowed and over $50,000 in scholarships were awarded.
The evening culminated with the recognition of Theodore Gunn and Carter Kowalweski by Retired Army Colonel Joe Schwar who presented their appointments to the United States Military Academy at West Point. He noted how incredibly rare it is to have two students from the same area, much less two students from the same high school, given that only 1100 students are appointed from all the schools around the country.
Following the recognition of USMA appointments, Dr. Ellis named the 2018 Scholar Performers and 2018 Scholar Athletes whose pictures will be placed in the lobby with the other honorees from the previous two decades. This year’s Scholar Performers are Stephen Burchett and Alana Huynh and the Scholar Athletes are Alexandra Reinecker and Jacob Taylor.
A complete list of the awards including full descriptions and recognized students can be found on our website and by accessing: York Suburban High School Awards Night 2018
