To obtain the STAR nomination, high school students must meet or exceed the national average score on all three parts of the SAT, have the highest score on the SAT through November of their senior year, and be in the top 10 percent or top 10 students of their class based on grade point average. High school STAR students then compete for system titles; and system STAR students in turn compete for region-wide honors in the 12 STAR Regions. Region winners and their STAR teachers are invited to Atlanta to compete for the state STAR scholarships and awards.
Each high school STAR student is asked to name his/her STAR teacher. Mr. Walt Watson has been chosen by Ms. Ficklin as her STAR teacher. Mr. Watson teaches math at Warren County High School and was chosen by Ficklin for her love of math.
