Honors Course

Honors Course

An honors student is a person recognized for achieving high grades or high marks in their course work.

Honors students may refer to

1. Students recognized for their academic achievement on lists published periodically throughout the school year, known as honor rolls, varying from school to school, and from different levels of education.
2. Students enrolled in designated honors courses or honors program.
3. Students who are members of the National Honor Society or other honor society.

Honors students are often recognized for their achievements. A student who has made numerous appearances on the honor roll may be awarded with some form of academic letter, or any other form of notification. A similar concept to honor rolls exists in colleges and universities in the United States, known as the Dean's List.
