(BREVARD, NC) - Scholars Recognition Evening is the height of the school year and student's career, as they prepare and await their graduation. Congratulations to our many sophomore, junior, and senior "TC Scholars," scholarship recipients, and their families who enjoyed a celebration of dedication, achievement, and community on May 17, 2018, at Brevard High School.
The pinnacle of the evening, owing to their academic success, is when graduating TC Scholars are asked to call up their most "Memorable Educators" to the stage and present tokens of their appreciation. We honor and remember all these great educators, from the classroom and laboratory to the field, track, and even the SRO's office. Thank you teachers, and congratulations on your well-earned recognition by those who matter most: our students!
