Thanks to all of you that played a part in their academic journey as well. Wish our Semifinalists luck as they continue in the competition to be a National Merit Finalist.
Semifinalists for the Class of 2023 are Ethan Bui Matthew Coffman Isobel Li Eve Loehrer Meirah Paul Jackson Stephens Joseph Wiltanger Over 16,000 semifinalists were announced this week representing schools throughout the country. Olathe North was once again on the top of the list for Olathe, having the most semifinalists in the district. It is amazing every single year to see our students get this recognition. They have worked hard for this honor, their families have supported them throughout their educational path and our staff has prepared them for the high pressure exams that they take each year. With this news, we celebrate the Olathe North community on what we can accomplish. Great day to be an Eagle!!

Kansas CTE Scholar Information9/12/2022 Eagle Families,
On Friday any Senior currently enrolled in a Career & Technical Education (CTE) course(s) (see attached for detailed list) this semester was invited to hear a presentation on information about the process for applying for Kansas CTE Scholar. This annual award recognizes students who have indicated a well-rounded demonstration of knowledge and skill according to their experiences within Career and Technical Education. Achievement by senior students indicates academic achievement, CTE knowledge with excellence, community engagement through leadership demonstration, documentation of skill attainment and ability to verbal their career vision. Any Senior who meets the criteria and applies to be a KS CTE Scholar will receive the award and recognition. In addition to statewide recognition and a graduation cord, Olathe's Class of 2023 will receive a full ride scholarship to JCCC (up to 15 hrs per semester & books) for two years! Last year over 70 Seniors in Olathe were awarded this honor, we are looking forward to doubling that this year. This is the final year for the JCCC scholarship, and we are hoping students take advantage of this amazing opportunity! It is a great personal marketing tool! For more information or questions, please reach out to your student's counselor, CTE teacher or our district Career Pathway Facilitators.
