Jessica Copenhaver, a senior at Brazoswood High School, has been selected as one of only twenty seniors from across the state as a member of the Texas Association of Secondary School Principals (TASSP) All-State Academic Excellence Team.
This prestigious award was designed to recognize Texas high school seniors for their outstanding academic achievements and the rewards of superior scholarship. Many outstanding senior students were nominated by their high school principals based on their SAT or ACT scores, academic grade point average, pursuit of advanced diploma, and other evidence of exceptional academic ability. Each student nominated was asked to write a 300-500 word essay to submit with the application. From this group of outstanding young scholars, only 20 were chosen for the TASSP All State Academic Excellence Team.
“Jessica is one of our most exemplary students. Her transcript reflects high success in the most rigorous courses BISD has to offer, stated Brazoswood Counselor Felicia Burgess. “She has consistently maintained a GPA in each of these courses that has ranked her in the top 1% of her graduating class and is currently in contingency for valedictorian for the Class of 2017. She is a dedicated member of the Buccaneer Swim Team and actively involved in the community as well.”
As a member of the TASSP All-State Academic Excellence Team, Jessica will be awarded a $500 scholarship and formally recognized at the TASSP Summer Workshop in Austin, Texas.
