Student Honors

While learning and growing in one’s academic studies are often reward enough, Wood Acres is proud to participate in several national honorary programs that recognize students for their academic excellence.

Fifth and eighth graders are tapped for membership in the President’s Education Award Program, jointly sponsored by the National Department of Education and the National Association of Elementary and Secondary School Principals. Students qualify based on nationally set academic and conduct requirements. Students receive certificates, presidential letter, and awards pins to commemorate this outstanding accomplishment. It is with pride and honor that Wood Acres students have qualified for either the silver or gold award each year in a decade of our participation.

With support and documentation from Wood Acres, qualifying seventh graders apply to take the SAT or ACT two years out of sequence and can qualify for some outstanding summer learning opportunities throughout the United States with other students as bright and charming as they are. With multiple years of participation, Wood Acres is so proud of the number of qualifying seventh grade students.

The receipt of their graduation diploma from The Wood Acres School, is an outstanding honor and is recognized by both private and public high schools as a symbol of excellence in academics.
