A total of 170 students from the area are included in the 31st Annual Edition of "Who;'s Who Among American High School Students, 1996-97."
The largest high school recognition publication in the country features more than 700,000 students or just 5 percent of the nation's high school students. They represent approximately 18,000 of the 22,000 public, private and parochial high schools in the country.

Traditionally, 99 percent of Who's Who students have a grade point average of "B;" or better and 97 percent are college bound.

Students are nominated by high school principals and guidance counselors, national youth groups, churches and educational organizations based on the students' academic achievement and involvement in extracurricular activities.

The students also compete for $200,000 in scholarship awards and participate in the publication's Annual Survey of High Achievers, an opinion poll of teen attitudes.
