Schools need to be safe spaces for our students. They should be able to reflect, question, and develop their viewpoints in their classes. We can’t help them become leaders if we only look at schools from an academic perspective. The whole student matters. #MentalHealth

The scholars’ “pursuit of knowledge, generosity of spirit, & exceptional talents bring our nation tremendous pride," said @SecCardona. "These remarkable young people have so much to contribute to our country, & thanks to them, I know America's future is bright." [ 🧵 🔚 ]
Since 1964, the program has honored 7,900+ of the nation’s top-performing students. In 1979, it was expanded to recognize students in the visual, literary & performing arts; in 2015, it was extended to recognize students in career & technical education fields.
As directed by @POTUS, the 2022 U.S. Presidential Scholars are comprised of one young man & woman from each state, DC, Puerto Rico, & U.S. families living abroad, as well as 15 at-large recipients, 20 arts scholars & 20 career & technical education scholars.
The @WhiteHouse Commission on Presidential Scholars then selects the 161 scholars based on:
📚 Academic success
🎨 📏 Artistic & technical excellence
📄 School evaluations & transcripts
🤝 A commitment to community service & leadership
To confirm their interest and assist in the selection process, Presidential Scholar candidates submit materials, and a review committee names approximately 600 as semifinalists.
Of 3.7 million high school graduates this year, ~5,000 qualified for 2022 Presidential Scholar awards through:
✔️ Outstanding SAT/ACT scores
✔️ Nominations from CSSOs & partner orgs
✔️ Nominations from @YoungArts, the National Foundation for the Advancement of Artists
Congratulations to the 58th class of 2022 U.S. Presidential Scholars, announced today by @SecCardona! go.usa.gov/xusMh
