Nov. 10, 2020

Congratulations to Mineola High School student Yesenia Hanif, who was invited to participate in the College Board National Hispanic Recognition Program.

The College Board National Recognition Programs create pathways to college for students from underrepresented communities. The programs award academic honors and connect students to universities and scholarship opportunities around the country.

Students who take the Preliminary SAT, or PSAT, and identify as Hispanic American or Latinx are considered for the Hispanic Recognition Program. They must earn a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher by the middle of their junior year to qualify, as well score in the top 2.5% of PSAT test takers in the country.

Mineola student Ana Victoria Serna was also recognized in this year’s program.
