Scholarships are reward for many worthy students Many students were chosen as outstanding in their fields at Skyline and were given the chance to go on in further competition. Others were award winners or honored with certificates of achievement. Among these latter award winners were California Scholarship Federation Sealbearers. Students achieved this status and gold seal on their diploma by being members of CSF for four semesters, one of which must have been in their senior year. A junior girl was honored by being chosen representative to Girls' State, a program held at Squaw Valley for the purpose of developing a deeper interest in the problems of government. Girls formed a mock government electing Congressmen and a governor. Six juniors were nominees from Skyline for the National Council of Teachers of English Achievement Award. Students were Barbara Winslow, Ann Scherer, Ron Goetz, Greg Bowers, Doug Bartholomew, and Steve Brittenham. Two American Field Service finalists were Philip Chan and Shari Smith. Skyline had a National Achievement finalist. All Skyline semi-finalists became finalists in the National Merit Scholarship program. The seven finalists were judged on the basis of their NM test scores, one other examination and teacher-counselor evaluation. ln rugged competition between other outstanding Skyline economics students, a winner and one alternate emerged to go on in regional competition for a sizable scholarship. The contest was sponsored by the Gemco Department Store Foundation in hopes of developing better business and economic consciousness in students and future businessmen. Chosen as outstanding by faculty and counselors, the Bank of America awarded plaques to four general field winners. With the chance to win S50 to S1000 in regional competition, the students participated in group discussion before a panel of judges. Winners were judged on grades, activities.
