  • ATTENDANCE AWARD CRITERIA:  Students with zero “0” absences.  If there are no students in a grade with zero absences, students with the least number of absences in accordance with school absentee policy become eligible for the award.

    Due to this year’s unusual circumstances, TCP defers to educators and individual school policies regarding criteria for ATTENDANCE.

    AWARD FINALISTS are all the students who meet the above criteria.  There should be more than one student.  However, if there is only one, they are still asked to take the survey (see next).

    AWARD FINALISTS are requested to take the student survey and return the Passcode Phrase that appears at the end of the survey, to their educators.  Educators may request a list of students who took the survey.   (NOTE: If a student meets the criteria of more than one award, they only need to take the survey once.)

    THE FINAL AWARD RECIPIENT is then drawn from the group of finalists who completed the online survey. 

    SENIORS compete from the 1st marking period to the end of the 3rd marking period and will receive their awards during the school’s Senior Awards programming prior to graduation.

    UNDERCLASSMEN (Juniors and Sophomores) compete from the 1st  marking period to the end of the 4th marking period and will receive their awards in the fall of the next school term.

  • STEM AWARD CRITERIA:
    #1 ranked student in a high school’s specific curriculum for science, technology, engineering, or math  (introductory, intermediate, advanced, college, or honors).
    #1 ranked student in an AVTS/CTC’s curriculum that involves science, technology, engineering or math (cosmetology, graphic arts, construction, carpentry, IT, healthcare tracks just to name a few).

    AWARD FINALISTS are all the students who meet the above criteria.  There should one student for each class offered.

  • COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD CRITERIA:  Students submit community service hours signed by the organization or individual for whom service was provided to the appointed faculty member.
