2024 Golden Citrus Scholar Nominees

Citrus County Schools’ 2024 Golden Citrus Scholar nominees have been announced, and it’s time to extend our heartfelt congratulations to these outstanding students! This prestigious recognition, sponsored by the Citrus County Education Foundation (CCEF), celebrates the exceptional achievements of graduating seniors across various categories.

On Friday, schools across the county unveiled their nominees for the Golden Citrus Scholar Awards. These nominees represent the epitome of academic excellence, leadership, and service within our community. Each high school has the honor of nominating one student per category, spanning categories of English/Literature/Journalism, Fine/Performing Arts, Leadership/Service, Mathematics/Engineering, Science, Social Studies/Civics, World Languages/Foreign Studies, and Career/Technical.

Following the nominations, a distinguished panel of judges, comprising local Rotary members, Chamber of Commerce representatives, and CCEF members, meticulously assesses the nominees’ accomplishments. Their task is to select winners in each category, as well as an overall Golden Citrus Scholar Hall of Fame recipient.

This recognition program not only showcases the remarkable talents and dedication of Citrus County’s graduating seniors but also serves as a testament to the unwavering support of the community. Scholarships, generously funded by donors including the CCEF, are awarded to all nominees, further empowering them to pursue their academic and career aspirations.

As we applaud these remarkable students, we also commend the educators, families, and community members who have contributed to their success. Together, we celebrate the bright futures ahead for these Golden Citrus Scholars and the positive impact they will undoubtedly make on our community and beyond. Congratulations once again to all the nominees for their remarkable achievements!
