News: FHS senior named to National Hispanic Recognition Program
posted: October 6, 2011

          FHS Senior Elizabeth Del Toro was selected as 2012 National Hispanic Recognition Program (NHRP) Scholar.
          The NHRP was initiated in 1983 to identify outstanding Hispanic/Latino high school students. This year, the NHRP is recognizing nearly 5,000 students selected from a pool of more than 235,000 students who took the 2010 PSAT/NMSQT/PAA and identified themselves as Hispanic/Latino.
          Although the College Board is unable to provide monetary awards for this, it is a privilege to recognize these outstanding students. This list of recognized students is distributed to subscribing four year postsecondary institutions in September. This gives the students an opportunity to hear from colleges that are particularly interested in communicating with academically outstanding students of Hispanic/Latino heritage.
