Scholar-Athlete of the Year Program Celebrates Excellence

What is the Scholar-Athlete of the Year Program?

The "Scholar-Athlete of the Year" program isn't just about recognizing great football players; it's about celebrating well-rounded individuals. We're searching for student-athletes who demonstrate a genuine commitment to academic excellence, actively contribute to their school and community, and showcase exceptional leadership qualities. These are the individuals who understand that being a student-athlete means balancing rigorous training schedules with demanding coursework and actively engaging in positive community involvement. Their achievements reflect a powerful combination of talent, hard work, and character.

A Weekly Spotlight

Throughout the upcoming football season (beginning this fall), News 4 San Antonio will shine a weekly spotlight on a nominated Scholar-Athlete. Each week, we'll share their stories through features on our website, across our social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter), and directly during our "Thursday Night Lights" broadcasts. These features will delve into the nominees' academic pursuits, explore their community involvement, and highlight their athletic achievements. We aim to showcase the multifaceted nature of these exceptional individuals, inspiring others to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives. Expect to see interviews with athletes, coaches, teachers, and community leaders who have witnessed their positive impact firsthand.

More Than Just Football: A Holistic View

This program reflects a growing recognition within the San Antonio community of the importance of holistic development in young people. While athletic performance is undeniably exciting, News 4 San Antonio believes it's equally crucial to acknowledge and celebrate the academic rigor, personal growth, and community contributions that contribute to a student-athlete's overall success. We're keen to highlight the sacrifices these athletes make to balance their commitments and the positive influence they have on those around them. This initiative seeks to foster a culture of appreciation for well-rounded individuals who contribute to the vibrancy of our city.

Nominate Your Outstanding Student-Athlete!

Do you know a student-athlete who exemplifies these qualities? We encourage you to nominate them! Sharing these incredible stories is essential, and it all starts with a nomination.
