Arndt receives honors
The United States
Achivement Academy
announced that Shayna Marie
Arndt from Cuba, Missouri,
has been named to a United
States National Award Winner
in Honor Roll.
This award is a prestigious
honor very few students can
ever hope to attain. In fact, the
Academy recognizes fewer
than 10% of all American High
School students.
Arndt's name will appear in
the United States Achievement
Academy Official Yearbook,
which is published nationally.
Arndt was also named an
All-American Scholar by the
United States Achievement
Academy.
The USAA has established
the All-American Scholar
Award Program to offer
deserved recognition to superi-
or students who excell in the
academic disciplines. The All-
American Scholars must earn
a 3.3, or higher, grade point
average. Only scholars selected
by a school instructor, coun-
selor, or other qualified sponsor
are accepted. These scholars
are also eligible for other
awards given by the USAA.
Arndt's name will appear in
the All-American Scholar
Yearbook, which is published
nationally.
Arndt, who attends
Crawford County R-II School
was nomintated for both
SHAYNA ARNDT
awards by Terri Carty.
"Recognizing and supporting
our youth is more important
than ever before in America's
history. Certainly, winners of
the the All-American Scholar
Award and the United States
Achievement Academy should
be congratulated and appreci-
ated for the dedication to excel-
lence and achievement," said
Dr. George Stevens, Executive
Director of the United States
Achievement Academy.
Arndt is the daughter of
John and Delilah Osborn of
Cuba. Her grandparents are
Dan and Lona Goins of
Houston, Texas, John and
Sharon Redmond of Kewanee,
Illinois and Rosa Arndt of
Hillsboro, Missouri.
