Wednesday, March 12, 2008

The United States Achievement Academy announced today that Drew George from Uniontown has been named an All-American Scholar At-Large Award Winner in Math. Drew, will appear in the All-American Scholar Official Yearbook which is published nationally. Drew is a student at Uniontown Jr. High. This award is a prestigious honor very few students can ever hope to attain. In fact, the Academy recognizes fewer than 10% of all American high school students.

"Recognizing and supporting our youth is more important than ever before in America's history. Certainly, winners of the All-American Scholar Award should be congratulated and appreciated for their dedication to excellence and achievement," said Dr. George Stevens, Founder of the United States Achievement Academy.

The criteria for selection are a student's grade point average, student achievements, and a well-balanced schedule of academics and extracurricular activities.

Drew is the son of Darrel and Laura George from Uniontown. The grandparents are Arlene Koester of Fort Scott.
