Carmel Students in the Spotlight
Class of 2007: Graduates To Be Proud ofA number of Carmel School students continued our long-standing tradition of academic excellence achieving excellent results in the 2007 Tertiary Entrance Examinations.
Certificates of Excellence for achieving 10 A grades over the two years were also awarded to Alyssa Kaplan, Rachel Solomon, Yonit Stoch and Michal Stone. Students Win Scholarships
Carmel School was the only school in the entire state where every Year 12 student attempted the TEE. The significance of this is that in all other schools their non-TEE students are not included in the statistics calculated. Of the 21,186 Year 12 students in the State 10,757 attempted the TEE (approximately 55%). Of our 52 students: TER score Carmel School State
Over 98 7 students Top 2% Carmel School was listed in Economics, History, Physics and Beliefs and Values as a school of outstanding performance. As you need a minimum of 12 students to qualify for this accolade, many of our subjects cannot be included, so to have 4 subjects listed is truly outstanding.
Well done to all our students and their hard-working teachers. |
Special mention should be made of our Dux Naomi Altman who scored the highest possible 99.95. Naomi was awarded Certificates of Distinction in Applicable Mathematics and Physics and a Certificate of Excellence. She joins Ryan Steed as a recipient of a prestigious Fogarty Scholarship to UWA where she will study Engineering.
