This national recognition, along with their highly regarded diploma from a Bryan ISD high school, will help these students meaningfully connect to colleges and stand out during the admissions process.
“Bryan ISD offers students the most options in advanced academics,” says Bryan ISD superintendent Dr. Christie Whitbeck. “It is exciting to see these students from different Bryan ISD programs and high schools excelling on the national level, and representing Bryan so well. This is the result when you offer students more choices, more opportunity.”
Students eligible for this recognition have a GPA of 3.5 or higher and have excelled on the PSAT/NMSQT or PSAT 10, or earned a score of 3 or higher on two or more AP Exams.
