PURPOSE
It is with Great Pride that we celebrate the 37th Annual Silver Medallion Academic Excellence Awards. The purpose of these awards has remained unchanged throughout these 37 years – to honor the high school graduates that have achieved the highest standing in their respective high school class. Only the top 8% of each graduating class will receive the Silver Medallion Award for Academic Excellence.
It is our hope the public recognition and the connotation of excellence will encourage these students to continually strive for quality in every endeavor.
The Telegraph, The Edwardsville Intelligencer, Phillips 66 Wood River Refinery, 1st MidAmerica Credit Union, Carrollton Bank, Wieland, First Community Credit Union, Dieterich Bank, Auto Butler Car Wash, and Lewis and Clark Community College take great pride in honoring these outstanding scholars.
