<p>Just wondering. I want to “pay back” my teacher somehow for everything she’s done for me
and obviously she’s not about to take hard cash up front :P</p>
<p>Not that I’d ever win any of them, but it’s still a pleasant thought.</p>

<p>tako,
The Presidential Scholar is the only one I know of. It has no monitary prize, just a trip to DC for the scholar and teacher to meet the President. The initial cutoff is based on SAT (M&V) scores and is sometimes 1600, depending on the state you’re from. After that, they’re based on essays and the top 2 males and females from each state attend.</p>

<p>Each Coca-Cola Scholar nominates an “Educator of Distinction” who receives a (non-cash) award.</p>
<p>Bring Up My Post, please?</p>
