Students Receive
Prestigious Awards
Rachel Williams and Hayden Peaslee, students at Gilmanton School in
Gilmanton, NH, were honored at the Thirteenth Annual Scholar Leader
Awards Banquet, held at the Center of New Hampshire in Manchester,
NH, on May 31, 2012. Each student was presented with a plaque
recognizing his or her achievements.
The criteria for being chosen to receive the Middle Level Scholar
Leader Award include demonstrating academic initiative and
scholarship, providing service to classmates and school,
exemplifying positive attitudes, and demonstrating leadership in the
classroom and school activities.
Over three hundred fifty guests, including students, educators, and
parents, attended this year’s banquet, which celebrated the
achievements of middle level students who are representative of the
many outstanding young adolescents in middle level schools in New
Hampshire. The guests included seventy-six students from
thirty-eight schools from all over the state.
The Middle Level Scholar Leaders Award is organized annually by the
New Hampshire Association for Middle Level Education (NHAMLE) and
the New England League of Middle Schools (NELMS), with supporting
sponsorship from Lifetouch National School Studios.
For more information about the Scholar Leader Award program, please

2012 Selection Criteria
All decisions concerning selection have a certain subjective
element. However, the New Hampshire Association for Middle Level
Educators and the New England League of Middle Schools urge schools
to follow the recommended criteria described below. Procedures for
selection used at the school must be fair, non-discriminatory, and
consistently applied.
It is suggested that two students, one male and one female, from
eighth grade be selected (unless your school has all female or male
students). Seventh grade student recipients are appropriate if that
is the highest grade in your school.
The following criteria are suggested:
• Excellent attitude towards learning
• Provides service to classmates and school
• Is a positive role model for peers
• Takes responsibility for own behavior and learning
These additional indicators may be of assistance:
• Exercises influence on peers in upholding school ideals
• Contributes ideas that improve the civic life of the school
• Shows leadership in group situations
• Shows respect for self and others
• Exemplifies positive attitudes and inspires positive behavior in
others
• Demonstrates academic initiative and is willing to uphold
scholarship
• Demonstrates leadership in the classroom and school activities
• Is dependable in any responsibility undertaken
• Volunteers and is gladly available and willing to sacrifice to
offer assistance to others
• Accepts criticism willingly and recommendations graciously
• Exemplifies desirable qualities of character and integrity
