Lovejoy ISD is proud to celebrate twenty two Lovejoy High School students, out of 90,000 students from across the country, who earned academic honors from College Board’s National Recognition Programs!
The National Recognition Programs honor the strong academic achievements of underrepresented students. They’re a great way for students to showcase their hard work in high school. The programs not only benefit students, they also benefit colleges looking to recruit diverse, talented students.

The National Recognition Programs help students find ways to celebrate their achievements. Students must have a GPA of 3.3 or higher. They are the top 10% of PSAT/NMSQT® or PSAT™ 10 assessment takers in each state for each program or have earned a score of 3 or higher on two or more AP® Exams. Additionally, they must attend school in a rural area or small town, or identify as First Generation, African American/Black, Hispanic/Latino, or Indigenous/Native. They’re invited to apply during their sophomore or junior year. Students who are awarded recognition will be notified at the beginning of the next school year.
We are #LovejoyProud of these students' hard work and outstanding academic accomplishments!
