Five Students Earn Hawkeye Ten Academic Honors

Jaxson Eden

Five Atlantic students received Hawkeye Ten academic honors with one of them earning the Character Award. The five seniors were Megan Behrends, Sam Coder, Emily Hohenberger, Tori Krogh, and Anna Iekel.

Emily Hohenberger was honored with the Character Award it is an award that is someone who is proficient in academics and the five pillars of character.

In order for these kids to be selected they have to score a 29 or higher on the ACT. Once they have done this the school nominates individuals that meet this criteria. Then they go to anonymous board who selects 22 students out of the entire 2017 class in the Hawkeye Ten.

This is a step up from last year when only one student represented AHS and now we have five students.
