LaVozColorado (La Voz) kicks off the 16th annual Student of the Week (SOTW) program. We are excited to once again feature Colorado’s top seniors for the school year. The program features Colorado’s top students from statewide high schools.
Student of the Week is one of our most popular features and in recent years it has become one of our busiest times of the year for LaVozColorado. Our internal committee narrows down the list of the quantity of qualified nominations. The internal committee reviews nominations where students are measured by their academic achievements and their presence in the community.
Historically, we receive nominations for students who attend Colorado high schools, and we challenge and encourage school administrators, counselors, and teachers across the state to send us nominations of your top students who deserve public praise and accolades. We remind everyone, including parents, to reach out to your student’s counselors, teachers, coaches etc. about your student or someone you may know who qualifies.
Our 2023-2024 feature begins Wednesday, Nov. 22, and will run through mid-May 2024. In mid-June 2024, our internal committee will choose one student for a scholarship award of $1500, then, we will feature that outstanding student in mid-June.
The Student of the Week program winners have a great opportunity to add their featured publication to their student college portfolio and resume.
Our Student of the Week nomination packet is available for download on our website at www.lavozcolorado.com. You may also view last years’ featured students, and the Student of the Week scholarship winner online in the Student of the Week section of our website.
