The Miami Herald Silver Knight Awards is one of the nation’s most highly regarded student award programs.
These awards recognize outstanding students who have not only maintained good grades, but who have also unselfishly applied their knowledge and talents and contributed service to their schools and communities.
• Minimum 3.2 unweighted GPA
• Strong records of community service to your school and local community
* Service is the most essential qualification *
The student’s record of service to the school and community best exemplifies an unselfish and continuous use of one’s talents in helping others.
Service does not have to be related to a nominee’s category, but some achievements both in and out of the classroom must be related to the category.
