Crystal Forbes of Fort Fairfield, a senior at Fort Fairfield Middle High School, was selected to receive the 2024 Principal’s Award, Principal Garrett Martin announced.
The award, sponsored by the Maine Principals’ Association, is given in recognition of a high school senior’s academic achievement and citizenship.
“Throughout Crystal’s years at Fort Fairfield Middle High School, Crystal has placed great emphasis on academic achievement, but just as importantly she has been an active leader in both the school and the community,” Martin noted in making the award.
“She very much deserves this recognition and I am privileged to be able to present her with this honor,” he said.
Forbes, Martin and other award winners and their principals attended an honors luncheon and scholarship drawing event in April.
Ten $1,000 scholarships were drawn in the names of former Maine principals and Maine Principals’ Association 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 Maine Principals’ Association, the professional association which represents Maine’s school administrators.
