Twenty-six HCPSS students in Grades 4–11, who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement and humanitarianism, have been named 2020 Carson Scholars.
Nine HCPSS students were named first-time Carson Scholars, and 17 students are acknowledged as Recognized Carson Scholars. Carson Scholars must have a minimum GPA of 3.75 and display humanitarian qualities through community service.
