I wish them well as they embark on their next steps after high school and know they’ll continue to make us all proud.”

Georgia Scholars are students who carried exemplary course loads during their four years of high school, performed excellently in all courses, successfully participated in interscholastic events at their schools and in their communities, and assumed leadership roles in extracurricular activities sponsored by their schools.

The Georgia Scholar program is coordinated by GaDOE’s Office of Communications in partnership with local school districts and schools.
