I got this award in 11th grade for the first time. Totally unexpected and a huge surprise.
The biggest surprise was getting it again in 12th grade.


Anyone else get one?

It's not a real award. It's a scam. Every kid that makes a passing grade gets the same offer mailed to them if their school sells a list of students to the company. You get this "award" if you are willing to fork over the big bucks. It's total fraud for the gullible.

There's also one for poet's basically if you pay big bucks they say you are a top young poet and publish your poem in one of their books. No one else sees these poem books except for other idiots that pay to be published. I had a friend that fell for that crap hook, line and sinker.
