Telstar senior Emily Hanscom received this year’s MPA Principal’s Award.
Kenney said, “Emily is very deserving of this recognition, and I am honored to be recognizing her for her achievements during her time at Telstar. Emily exemplifies what Telstar High School wants for all of our students and that is someone who is a leader in the classroom, on her athletic teams, in her extracurricular groups, as well as out in the community. Emily has worked hard over her school career here at SAD 44 and this is a fitting tribute to her efforts.”
