STUDENT: Duke TIP Honors P.K. Yonge Students

Two 7th-grade students from P.K. Yonge were among the students being honored by the Duke University Talent Identification Program (Duke TIP) for their exceptional scores on the ACT or SAT.

Valentina Carton de Grammont and Tupelo Hostetler qualified for the state ceremonies by earning scores that are approximately equal to the 50th national percentile rank for college-bound seniors taking the tests. To qualify for the 2017–2018 school year, students had to meet at least one of the following criteria:

Duke TIP’s 7th Grade Talent Search identifies students across the United States who have scored at or above the 95th percentile on a grade-level standardized test. As part of the program, these academically talented students take above-level college-entrance exams to learn more about their abilities.

Congratulations Valentina and Tupelo!
