Silver Knight Qualifications The essential qualification for a Silver Knight nominee is service. A Silver Knight is one whose record of service to the school and community best exemplifies an unselfish and continuous use of one’s talents in helping others.

Judges evaluate community service during the full high school career, 9th through 12th grades. Minimum 3.2 un-weighted GPA

Silver Knight Nominee Evaluation Nominees are evaluated based on the following criteria: Service, achievements, leadership Character and interview Consistency and lasting impact of service Independent thinking Creative problem-solving Leadership in getting others involved Perseverance in overcoming obstacles Note: Most nominees will have a wide range of service activities. It is essential for nominees to document service performed outside the school.

Categories 15 CATEGORIES Art Mathematics Athletics Music Business New Media Drama Science English & Literature Social Science Foreign Language Speech General Scholarship Vocational-Technical Journalism
