The Brockton High School community celebrated 220 seniors who earned the John and Abigail Adams Scholarship in a ceremony held on Thursday, January 12, in the Fine Arts Auditorium.

The John and Abigail Adams Scholarship covers tuition for up to eight semesters of undergraduate education at a Massachusetts state college or university. Eligibility is determined by students’ scores on the 10th grade Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) test. Students must score in the Advanced category on English Language Arts, Mathematics, or STE (Biology, Chemistry, Introductory Physics or Technology/Engineering) and in the Proficient or Advanced category on the remaining two test areas. The students must also have a combined MCAS score that ranks within the top 25 percent of their school district.

“Any student who receives an Adams Scholarship deserves high praise, but I am especially proud of this group and the way they persevered under really difficult circumstances in spring 2021. Let’s not forget that these students were participating in hybrid learning until May of that year,” said Principal Cynthia Burns.

During Thursday’s ceremony, each student received a certificate of recognition and a t-shirt to be worn in the Adams Scholarship photo taken each year at the conclusion of the celebration.

“When the pandemic disrupted their academic careers, our Class of 2023 Adams Scholars possessed the self-determination to achieve their goals,” said Superintendent Mike Thomas. “Our students’ commitment to themselves will take them farther than any standardized test could quantify.”

 

Congratulations to our Adams Scholarship Recipients in the Class of 2023:
