AWARDS As an incentive for good scholarship, citizenship, leadership, patriotism, extra- curricular activity, an honor assembly is held each year to award honors to stu- dents who have achieved a goal in one of these fields. The F. C. Buss trophy is given to the best all-round boy, and the Creston P.-T.A. trophy is given to a girl. Scholarship cups are presented to the students who have the highest scholastic records for the current year in both the junior and senior high school. For the four years a valedictory medal is awarded. The Sons and Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution award medals to a student in 8-2 grade for patriotism and leadership and to a senior girl for patriotism and citizenship. Both boys and girls are eligible for the American Legion medal given for good scholarship and an outstanding character. At the end of the year the student with the highest point total in extra-curricular activities receives an activity award.
