Nine Madison School District students named All-State Scholars

Nine students from the Madison School District have earned the All-State Scholars honor out of 120 so named in Wisconsin. In addition, the nine Madison students comprise 60% of the 15 students chosen from the six-county Second Congressional District.

The All-State Scholars from Madison are:

• Lauren Brown, La Follette HS
• Brian Lee, Memorial HS
• Adeyinka Lesi, West HS
• Neil Liu, Memorial HS
• Edson Makuluni, Memorial HS
• Alexander Pinigis, East HS
• Yaoli Pu, West HS
• Mitchell Shanklin, La Follette HS
• Mary Thurber, West HS

Selection as an All-State Scholar is based primarily on a student's overall high school grade-point average and ACT or SAT scores. In the event of a tie, judges consider student statements, extracurricular activities, and leadership.

All-State Scholars receive a $1,500 one-year scholarship which can be renewed for an additional three years.
