For the past 6 years, the Hawai`i Hotel & Lodging Association, The Honolulu Advertiser and the Department of Education has been honoring one outstanding senior from every public high school throughout the state who best exemplifies citizenship in school and in the community.  These public high school students are honored with the CITIZENSHIP AWARD that is a $1,000 continuing education scholarship, a feature in a special tabloid section in The Honolulu Advertiser and a framed copy of their tabloid feature. 

These CITIZENSHIP AWARD winners are not necessarily the most academic or the star athlete, but the student who has given back to make our state a better place, and who best exemplifies the Department of Education's Vision of a Public High School Graduate.  This vision is for all students to (1) realize their goals and aspirations; (2) possess the attitude, knowledge and skills necessary to compete in a global society, and to be an effective family member; (3) exercise the rights & responsibilities of citizenship; and (4) pursue post-secondary education and/or careers without the need for remediation.   

These 42 winning students were honored and recognized at an awards luncheon on April 28th at the Sheraton Waikiki. 

 

We congratulate the following students on winning the 2010 CITIZENSHIP AWARD and we say Mahalo to the companies for sponsoring these amazing high school students.
