The ceremony recognized not only these top academic performers but also celebrated the District's four National Merit Finalists and one Commended Scholar, who have demonstrated outstanding academic prowess on a national level.

In addition to the medals of excellence, the ceremony included the awarding of a range of scholarships to deserving students. Recipients included those honored by the Lakewood Leadership Team, Lakewood Rangers Education Foundation (over $64,000 worth!), winners of various Lakewood High scholarships, and the Governor's Merit Scholarship.

The audience and students also enjoyed some beautiful music from the Lakewood High Chamber Choir. Such a wonderful evening to celebrate our student successes!
