Meharry Medical College, Chairman "Grambling State University is proud to be included annually in the United States Achievement Academy Program. The advantages that the students receive through your publicity and the opportunity to apply for scholarship grants serve as incentives for them to strive to do their best in college. Students have come to my office "in all smiles" showing me the letters of congratulation they received from the USAA Program" Helen Richards-Smith Grambling State University "Our school is most proud to be associated with the United States Achievement Academy. Opportunities have been afforded many of our students because of the Academy. Students are able to achieve their dreams as a result of the scholarships that are available through the Academy. We are grateful to the Academy and we wish continued success." Mrs. Emmarene Streeter Americus, GA "The Academy has afforded tremendous honor to our area. In Southern West Virginia, there are many outstanding minds. Geography and the media often cause small town areas to be stereotyped. You have given these young people a chance to shine. They are the future of our country and we need to emphasize the positive qualities. Continued effort in this area will help solidify a future that is promising for them and all of us. A teachers reward comes from the achievement of the minds they touch. Everybody wins!" Karen Perdue Iaeger, WV "I love this program! It gives worthy students the recognition they deserve, and colleges look very favorably on these awards! I will continue to nominate my top students as long as the Academy continues to send me nomination forms!" Jeffrey D Suhr Sioux Falls, SD "The recognition our students receive serves as a fine motivator and encourages higher self-esteem and achievement promoting continued success." Grace L. Helly Honeoye, NY "We were pleased that one of our students did win scholarship money from IFLA." Diana M Colozzi Peabody, MA "The United States Achievement Academy has provided my cheerleaders, mathematics students, and club members with the recognition that they deserve yet often goes unnoticed in this day and age. Too often, high school students are recognized in the news for extremely negative acts or abnormally advanced academic accomplishments. The USAA provided my vocational-technical high school students with recognition for being above average students with good moral, social and community values. Too often, today's society places emphasis on the 15 minutes of fame rather than on the building of strong universal foundations which lead to a lifetime of rewarding experiences. By honoring my students for their work in the classroom and the community, the USAA has helped to develop a new generation of solid citizens with strong self esteem rather than the mundane attitude that average means insignificant." Michele Bonner-Cerisano "The United States Achievement Academy allows students to be recognized for their outstanding academic intra curricular and extra curricular efforts. Student recognition is a great way to inspire youth to achieve their goals as well as setting new and higher goals. This type of motivation helps prepare students for post high school schooling and careers." Brian Hendrichson "I have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity I have had over the past ten years to nominate my students for recognition of this scholastic achievement by the USAA. This program is valuable to students who seek scholarship opportunities, and recognition in this academy is valuable for mention on college application, job resumes, etc." John R.
