The Fine Print

Standout seniors featured in this section were selected by The Times from nominations made by schools in the areas of leadership, academics and arts.

Senior names were supplied by schools based on computer records. The lists may contain the names of some students who, for various reasons, will not be in the graduating class.

Schools with fewer than 25 students in their senior class and continuation and alternative schools are not profiled separately. Some small specialty schools declined to or were unable to participate.

Not all valedictorian names were available. Those included are based on academic work completed through the third quarter.
