Attaching list of awards in additional info

The Common App only has room for 5 academic awards or honors. Here, I assume academic means AP Scholar, National Merit, Intel, or career-related endeavors (HOSA, FBLA, JSA.)

What about awards and scholarships for volunteerism or leadership such as Eagle Scout? Certainly these are not "academic" honors.

Can I attach a one-paged summary of such awards under the additional information section...or would having a list of awards seem presumptuous for a high school student?

(Of course, I would filter this list to contain only the most significant honors, not just "Anytown High School Citizen of the Month.")
