22 Antelope County Students Earn Academic All-State Awards

Twenty-two Antelope County students were recognized by the Nebraska School Activities Association (NSAA) as recipients of the 2018 Spring Academic All-State Awards. 

Each year, the NSAA and the Nebraska Chiropractic Physicians Association recognize students during Fall, Winter and Spring Seasons who are nominated by their schools for their individual academic excellence, leadership and significant contributions in their NSAA activity. The following leadership and scholarship guidelines apply: 1. A nominated student must be a varsity player or organizational leader who has played a significant role on the team or in the organizational activity during the seasons for which nominations are accepted. 2. A nominated student must have a minimum cumulative Grade Point Average, in all curricular subjects, of 93% or 3.7 on a 4.0-point scale or the equivalent. 3. NSAA high schools or their cooperative sponsorship may nominate a maximum of two students per NSAA activity program.
