Nina Nicole Maratita Sablan, a student at the Saipan Southern High School, has been included in the 38th annual edition of Who’s Who Among American High School Students, 2003-2004.
Sablan is the daughter of proud parents Frank R. and Vicky M. Sablan of Saipan.
Who’s Who, published by Educational Communications Inc. in Austin, Texas, is the largest recognition program and publication in the nation honoring high achieving high school students.
Students are nominated by high school principals and guidance counselors, national youth groups, churches and educational organizations based upon students’ academic achievement and involvement in extracurricular activities.
Traditionally, 97 percent of Who’s Who students are college-bound.
The 38th edition of Who’s Who Among American High School Students®, 2003-2004, published in 15 regional volumes, features nearly 600,000 students or just 5 percent of the nation’s 15 million high school students. They represent approximately 20,000 of the 24,000 public, private and parochial high schools in the country.
Who’s Who students also compete for $20,000 in scholarship awards and participate in the publication’s Annual Survey of High Achievers, an annual opinion poll of teen attitudes.
