Eleven SVHS students were recently designated as Illinois State Scholars: (not in order) Anna Bradle, KJ Chavers, Charlie Drake, Braden Engel, Parker Genler, Ada Haner, Haley Jones, Joshua Reisinger, Holland Reynolds, Jacob Rhodes, and Braden Rogers.

    Stillman Valley High School Principal Leslie Showers is pleased to announce that 11 students from the SVHS graduating class of 2024 have been designated as Illinois State Scholars. The Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC), the state’s college access and financial aid agency, presents this important recognition of academic achievement to exceptional Illinois high school students annually. The following students were named 2024-25 Illinois State Scholars: Anna Bradle, KJ Chavers, Charlie Drake, Braden Engel, Parker Gensler, Ada Haner, Haley Jones, Joshua Reisinger, Holland Reynolds, Jacob Rhodes, and Braden Rogers.

    The State Scholar Program publicly and personally identifies graduating high school seniors who possess superior academic potential. Students from nearly every high school in Illinois compete in the program. State Scholars can be found on the campuses of nearly 200 public and private institutions of higher education in Illinois. The combination of students’ exemplary college entrance examination scores and record high school achievement indicate an especially high potential for success in college. To be named an Illinois State Scholar is an outstanding accomplishment that will be a highlight of the recipient’s academic record.

    The Illinois State Scholar program is awarded to high school seniors based on ACT or SAT test scores and the sixth semester* class size and unweighted class rank and Grade Point Average (GPA). ISAC gathers student data during one academic year that is used in making student awards for the following academic year (e.g., data gathered during the current academic year is used in making awards for the following academic year). Test scores are gathered from the testing companies for the ACT and SAT exams taken during the student’s third and fourth semester prior to graduation.

    ISAC supports high schools and students statewide, offering free assistance with college and career exploration, and in completing financial aid forms and college applications. Local ISACorps members, who are recent college graduates expertly trained to serve as near-peer mentors to assist high school students and their families in navigating education after high school and the financial aid process, offer free in-person and virtual workshops, as well as direct one-on-one assistance in communities statewide.

    “It is an honor to recognize such an outstanding group of high performing scholars; we are so proud of their academic success,” said SVHS Principal, Leslie Showers.
