Is Honor Roll as rewarding as Principal’s Honor Roll?
The Pepper Bough interviewed an honor roll student, Matthew Perez, and a Principal’s Honor Roll student, Christian Morales. Both have received awards for their grades. But, should they categorize them on different levels, or just let everyone feel as accomplished as the other?

In the long run, many of the ideas are similar whether it is about studying or college and so on. So should we separate them? Think about the student with a 3.49999… so close to getting Principal’s honor roll or the student that barely made it with a 3.51 being rewarded for being smart and then being smarter is not right if they’re both smart. So should there be a separation?
