It is particularly important that we honor our students who represent racially diverse ethnic and cultural groups across the district and have excelled despite the systemic challenges they face every day.

    These students deserve recognition by both èßäapp¹ÙÍø and those who have been instrumental in their success. Historically, we honored these students in distinct recognition ceremonies including Golden Minds, Si Se Puede, Young, Gifted, and Black, and Native American Honor Day. At each event, our diverse communities rallied around our students in acknowledgment of their academic success, resilience, commitment to their culture, and personal development.

    We are grateful for the work of our community to create customized recognition experiences for students that affirms their identities. This year we will build on those efforts and celebrate our collective achievements in an inclusive, single recognition ceremony that provides students with a distinguished experience while preserving the cultural elements that made each prior event unique. The evening will feature each student group, e.g., Golden Minds, New èßäapp¹ÙÍøers, Si Se Puede, Take Flight Native Pride, and Young, Gifted, and Black, and will also be accompanied by student storytelling, performances, keynote addresses, and artifacts that represent our students’ diverse experiences. Our goal is to showcase a powerful display of support to increase visibility for our diverse students and admiration for their cultures.

  • 2024 All-Star Awards Ceremony Update

    The annual All-Star Awards Ceremony was first launched in 2019 as èßäapp¹ÙÍø’ premier recognition event for students of color. After facing many challenges and making significant modifications since 2019 due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we have been able to host a couple of in-person award ceremonies since! 

    This year’s ceremony was held at the Prophet Education Center on Thursday, May 30th and we honored 50 students from five unique student groups: API Voices (Asian American and Pacific Islander youth), New èßäapp¹ÙÍøers (immigrant youth), ¡Sí, Se Puede! (Latinx youth), Take Flight Native Pride (Native and Indigenous youth), and Young, Gifted and Black (Black youth). We were thrilled to have awarded and recognized these students as they have exemplified what it means to be great at school, at home, and in the community! They are truly All-Stars!
