Thank you for being part of the 37th Annual Student Recognition Program, where we came together to celebrate graduating students from elementary, middle, and high school across Santa Clara County.
Students were recognized for excellence across seven categories—from academics and the arts to civic leadership and athletic achievement—alongside outstanding educators and community leaders whose contributions uplift and inspire.
This year’s celebration was a powerful reflection of what’s possible when the community comes together in support of our students.

Everyone involved with educating our children, teachers and administrators alike, must know that success is the only option.”

Research shows that students perform better in school when they possess a positive attitude about themselves and their cultural heritage. With this in mind, SCCABE organizes multiple events to enrich, educate, and prepare students for the present and future.
