Senior Martha Putman is an excellent ex- ample of a scholar. At Woodward since the eighth grade, Martha has annually received a Gold Eagle, Woodward ' s award tor aca- demic excellence. Martha is a member of the Phoenix staft. She also belongs to Junior Civitan and Na- tional Honor Society. Martha is active in the French Honor Society as well as participat- ing on the Math team When asked about her secret for main- taining good grades and study habits, Mar- tha stated that once a student knows a teacher and what t hat teacher expects from students then you know exactly how and what to study. To keep those high grades will depend on how much time is dedicated to that study. SCHOLARS: Academic Example Matt McGuire is a continuation of the Woodward desire for excellence. Matt is a proven scholar In his seventh year at the Academy, he has spent all ot those years on Eagle Roll, with five of them on Gold Eagle- Matt is involved in mam aspects ot the Woodward experience.

His secret for studying is simple: he does not spend a lot of time in studying, but establishes goals for that peri- od of time in which he does study. Matt is a prime example that it is never the quantity ot time spent, but the quality.
