In 1983, the College Board initiated the National Hispanic Recognition Program (NHRP) to identify outstanding Hispanic/Latino high school students and share information about these academically well-prepared students with colleges and universities. Students recognized by the NHRP are at least one quarter Hispanic/Latino and have achieved a minimum PSAT/NMSQT/PAA score for their region. Students with GPA’s of 3.5 or higher are designated as Scholars, and those with GPA’s of 3.0-3.49 as Honorable Mentions. This year the NHRP is recognizing 5,000 students from a pool of over 200,000 students who took the 2007 PSAT/NMSQT/PAA and identified themselves as Hispanic/Latino. Coral Reef Senior High School is proud to announce that our student, Jason V. Mills, has been selected as a 2008-09 National Hispanic Recognition Program Scholar.
