Traditional high school awards are a lot like freshman algebra—a simple formula without a lot of variables. Discus is different. We look for students who excel in more ways than one, both in and outside the classroom. If you march to the beat of your own drum, while wearing many hats, and teaching an old dog to build a better mousetrap, we want to hear from you. The Discus Awards is the only high school awards program that shows colleges that you have the passion and complexity to make your mark in the real world, not just on paper. Nominate yourself or someone you know today for this national recognition program for all-around high school students.
The Discus Awards offers students access to a unique portfolio of college scholarships. For example, throughout the school year, a panel of education professionals and others uniquely accomplished in one of the 10 Discus Awards Attributes will select ten Discus Awards Finalists as recipients of a $2000 National All-Around Student Scholarship. National All-Around Student Scholarship winners will be announced twice per program year at www.DiscusAwards.com and on the Discus Awards Facebook Page. Your first step to winning a national college scholarship and to getting help paying for college is to submit a nomination for Discus Awards recognition. Get started now!
