Hunter Chandler of Mapleton, a senior at Presque Isle High School, has been selected to receive the 2024 Principal’s Award, Principal David Bartlett announced.
The award, sponsored by the Maine Principals’ Association, is given in recognition of a high school senior’s academic achievement and citizenship.
“Throughout his years at Presque Isle High School, Hunter has exhibited excellence in the classroom. He has also been active in the school community,” Bartlett noted in making the award. “Hunter very much deserves this recognition.”
Chandler, Bartlett and other award winners attended a recognition banquet in Brewer on April 6. Ten $1,000 scholarships were drawn in the names of former Maine principals and MPA Executive Directors: Horace O. McGowan, Richard W. Tyler, and Richard A. Durost.
The Principal’s Award is presented in more than 100 Maine public and private high schools by member principals of the MPA, the professional association which represents Maine’s school administrators.
