Elgin Area School District U-46 recently announced that 264 high school students were named 2014-2015 Illinois State Scholars by the Illinois Student Assistance Commission.
The winners rank in the top 10 percent of high school seniors and selection is based on SAT, ACT, and/or Prairie State Achievement exam scores and/or class rank at the end of the student’s junior year.
U-46 Illinois State Scholars include 80 students from Bartlett High School, 52 from Elgin High School, 33 from Larkin High School, 29 from Streamwood High School, and 70 from South Elgin High School.
