(SANFORD) Aidan Gendron of Sanford, a senior at Sanford High School, has been selected to
receive the 2024 Principal's Award, Principal Amanda Doyle announced today. The award,
sponsored by the Maine Principals' Association, is given in recognition of a high school senior's
academic achievement and citizenship.
“Aidan’s contributions to the SHS community are numerous and impactful. He’s an excellent
student, a leader among his peers, and a steward of our core values,” Principal Doyle shared.
“For all of his efforts at school, representing SHS well in extracurriculars, and in service to the
greater community, Aidan is most deserving of this recognition.”
Aidan, Athletic Director Mr. Zach Lemelin, and other award winners and school administrators
will attend an Honors Luncheon in Brewer in early April.
The Honors Luncheon recognizes these outstanding students with the presentation of an
individual plaque and the awarding of ten $1,000 scholarships in the names of former Maine
principals and MPA Executive Directors: Horace O. McGowan, Richard W. Tyler, and Richard A.
Durost.
The Principal's Award is presented in more than 100 Maine public and private high schools by
member principals of the MPA, the professional association which represents Maine's school
administrators.
