STMA High School Announces

2019-2020 Academic Awards Although unable to assemble and create the fanfare that typically goes along with the distribution of academic awards, STMA High School is still recognizing approximately 470 students for their academic success during the 2019-2020 school year. The awards honor students for their commitment to learning and for their achievement in the classroom. These students are academic standouts. Congratulations to all award winners, and thank you to their parents/guardians for their continued encouragement and support of their education!

Seniors will receive their awards and programs on Tuesday, May 19 at the same time their caps and gowns are picked up. Ninth, tenth, and eleventh grade students will receive their awards and programs when they return materials such as textbooks and Chromebooks in early June. More information will follow with those details.
