A.C.E. Award (Accepting the Challenge of Excellence):
This program recognizes high school students who have made a dramatic change in their attitude and performance or overcome some type of adversity during their high school years. These changes have enabled the students to overcome their adversities and prepare for graduation. Students from local area high schools are invited to a club meeting to be recognized. Also invited are the student’s family, and school counselor.
