Courtney Whitmore of Caribou, a Junior at Caribou High School, has been selected as the Caribou High School’s Student of the Month for the Month of November, Principal Dr. Eric McGough announced today. The award, sponsored by the Caribou Chapter of the National Honor Society, is given in recognition of a high school student’s academic achievement and citizenship. The Student of the Month program is meant to promote success in and out of the classroom. For a student to be a well-respected citizen, they must be able to balance many different areas of life. They must exemplify outstanding characteristics both as a student and as a citizen of the community. The student must be able to handle many different aspects of student life while maintaining excellence in the classroom. This award is designed to nominate and select students who promote and take pride in Caribou High School and in themselves. To be nominated as Student of the Month the candidate must be a current high school student. The student will exemplify character in and out of the classroom. Students are nominated by Caribou High School Faculty and Administration each month. The selected student's picture and name will be showcased during the month of recognition both at school and on the school website. The administration will also present a Student of the Month Certificate to the student. Congratulations Courtney Whitmore!
