[May 06, 2015]  LINCOLN - Zion Lutheran School eighth-grader, Katie Lynn, is the ZLS nominee for the Illinois Elementary School Association Scholar Attitude Award.

Requirements for eighth grade student nominees are that they must have a minimum 3.5 grade-point-average (on a 4.0 scale), and participation in at least one IESA activity during each of his or her junior high years and demonstration of outstanding citizenship during their tenure. In addition, each student is required to submit a typed essay titled "The Value of Sportsmanship."

"The IESA Scholar Attitude Award recognizes the academic success, activity participation, and community involvement of the students in our member schools. The students who are honored as the IESA Scholar Attitude Award winners are among the best and brightest in Illinois. They are the young leaders in their school and community who dream to do great things as junior high school students and become the leaders in their high school years and beyond," said IESA Executive Director Steve Endsley. "Truly, every student who applies for the award is a winner and is an outstanding candidate. Unfortunately, only one student from each membership division will be chosen and recognized. In many cases, it is an honor to be the school's nominee." (https://www.iesa.org/citizenship/sca/)

Katie was chosen as the ZLS nominee by the school faculty based on her academics, citizenship, leadership, and school involvement.
