We Are Proud: Midwest Academic Talent Search
October 10, 2016
We Are Proud of Horizon Middle School students who had outstanding achievement in the 2015-16 Midwest Academic Talent Search sponsored by Northwestern University. The Talent Search identifies academically talented students to provide them with recognition, information and opportunities to help them develop their talents. Qualifying seventh- and eighth-graders choose to take either the ACT or SAT to gain a more accurate understanding of their academic potential.
Emma Pranger and Bianca Turman had outstanding performance on the ACT test. Other Horizon students were recognized last spring for outstanding performance on either the ACT or SAT. Some scores weren't available until summer.
This fall Emma Pranger was invited to the Northwestern University Recognition Ceremony for students who scored in the top 3 percent of participating students, and she was invited to the Minnesota awards ceremony on Oct. 1 at Hamline University for being a high scorer in Minnesota.
The Midwest Talent Search is coordinated at Horizon Middle School by Leigh Dornfeld.
