President’s Volunteer Service Award

The President’s Volunteer Service Award program is on a temporary pause. At this time, Sage Oak is unable to participate in this program. We are working on an internal community service tracking system to continue encouraging community service efforts.

President’s Education Awards Program

Sage Oak is proud to honor deserving students at the end of each year through the President’s Educational Awards Program. Founded in 1983, the President’s Education Awards Program honors graduating elementary, middle, and high school students for their achievement and hard work. The program has provided individual recognition from the President and the U.S. Secretary of Education to those students whose outstanding efforts have enabled them to meet challenging standards of excellence. Each year, thousands of elementary, middle, and high schools participate by recognizing deserving students. Upon teacher nomination, the principal selects recipients based on school-set criteria.

  • Report cards/GPA
  • Standardized test scores (CAASPP) and local assessments (iReady)
  • Participation in academic activities inside or outside of school
  • Teacher recommendation
  • Other adult  recommendations
