Honorable Mentions

Every other week during the school year, Honorable Mentions provides current James Scholars with one place to find out about upcoming (honors point worthy) opportunities, deadlines to stay organized, honors student features so you can get to know each other, and stories about failure and resilience so we can learn from each other and realize that we’re all in this together.
