GLASGOW — Twenty-five students from the area have been inducted into the 2007-08 National Honor Roll.

The National Honor Roll recognizes high-achieving high school and middle school students. “Young people such as our inductees, who work hard to attain academic success, deserve to be congratulated,” says Lynn Romeo, publisher of the National Honor Roll. “Honoring their achievements provides motivation and encourages them to continue striving toward their goals. We’re proud to include them in the National Honor Roll.”

Students from Hart County High School: Thomas Atwell, Cave City; Lauren Bowman, Amber Bruton, Kristen Esters and Brian Puckett, all of Munfordville; and Mary Denison, Desarhea Furlong and Isaac Sexton, all of Horse Cave.

Students from Caverna High School: April Burnette and Alice Curd, both of Horse Cave; Zachary Carver of Glasgow; Miranda Estes of Edmonton; Rebecca Hatcher of Park City, and Nikki Hatcher of Cave City.

Amanda Carney and Chelsea Howard, both of Fountain Run, students at Allen County-Scottsville High School.

Beverly Ennis of Edmonton, and Kellie Slinker of Horse Cave, both students at Metcalfe County High School.

The honor roll offers several benefits that can contribute to the success of its student members. For students recognized for the 2007-08 school year, National Honor Roll set aside $25,000 to be shared among 25 of its qualifying inductees. All members are entitled to compete for these awards for academic achievement, which will be awarded in December. Admission offices of the schools inductees designate will be notified of the student’s acceptance into the National Honor Roll. Each United States senator and governor also receive a complimentary copy of the National Honor Roll commemorative edition, along with a list of the students from their state who have been inducted into the National Honor Roll.

Only students with a B or better average are eligible to be inducted in to the national Honor Roll. Sixty-nine percent of the inductees in the 2007-08 honor roll averaged an A- or better, thirty-one percent averaged B through B+. Twenty-six percent were seniors, 29 percent juniors, 24 percent sophomores, 16 percent freshmen and five percent were from the Class of 2012. Ninety-three percent have been recipients of other academic and community honors; 60 percent participate in sports activities; 23 percent are employed; 26 percent participate in school government; 15 percent work on their school publications, and 60 percent volunteer in their communities.
