Benjamin Terril, a senior at Sanford High School, has been selected to receive the 2025 Principal's Award, Principal Tracy Gibson. The award, sponsored by the Maine Principals' Association, is given in recognition of a high school senior's academic achievement and citizenship.
"Throughout his years at Sanford High School, Benjamin has distinguished himself in the classroom, in the theater program, on the playing field, and as a leader in the school and the community," Principal Gibson noted in making the award.
Benjamin, Principal Gibson and other award winners and their principals will attend an Honors Luncheon at Jeff’s Catering on Saturday, April 5, 2025 at 12:30 p.m.
The Honors Luncheon recognizes these outstanding students with the presentation of an individual plaque and the awarding of ten $1,000 scholarships in the names of former Maine principals and MPA Executive Directors: Horace O. McGowan, Richard W. Tyler, and Richard A. Durost.
