“Just keep going! Local students honored at RJ’s Academic Excellence Awards!
Local students were honored Thursday night at the Review-Journal’s annual Academic Excellence Awards. Fourteen students from first to 12th grade received awards at the event, held at the JW Marriott in Summerlin.
“In addition to the scholarship, the academic excellence awards emphasize leadership, service, and character,” Review-Journal Executive Editor Glenn Cook said during the award ceremony. “These are the traits and deeds that will put you on a path to success.” ….
Caitlin Nguyen, the 11th-grade winner of the Academic Excellence Award, said being recognized helped her realize that all of her hard work had paid off and encouraged her to keep going.
Nguyen attends Coral Academy of Science Las Vegas and serves as the American Red Cross Club vice president and helps to organize blood drives. Her goal is to become an anesthesiologist, and she will be part of a medical summer program at Johns Hopkins University.

Viktoriia Marushchak: One of two 10th-grade winners, Marushchak just completed her first school year in the United States since her family moved from here from Ukraine. She attends Coral Academy of Science Las Vegas and served on the student council and excelled in four advanced placement classes.
Each student and their school each received $500 with the award.”
