Dublin High School Senior Awards Night Class of 2016: “I am Dublin High”

DUBLIN, CA–Dublin High School’s annual Senior Awards Night filled the Dublin High Student Union with students, parents, educators and members of the community. Over $2.9 million in scholarships and awards were presented to Dublin High School Class of 2016 students for their academic achievements, including over 50 merit scholarships for colleges nationwide and a U.S. Air Force ROTC Scholarship awarded to Sung Han Lee and a U.S. Army ROTC Scholarship awarded to Grant Lemen.

Included in the event was the traditional passing of the gavel ceremony where outgoing senior and student body president Nicholas Padnos introduced incoming student body president Jennifer Dyer.

Students were recognized for academic achievements across a wide variety of subjects and interests (full list below) and one student, senior Michael Henry, received the Best Attendance Award for not missing a single day of school throughout all four years of high school. The Dublin High School Class of 2016 also featured seven National Merit Scholarship finalists.

OneDublin.org prepared the seventh annual edition of the popular “I am Dublin High” video (see below) featuring over 140 Dublin High School Class of 2016 seniors sharing their post-high school plans.
