Nine Penn Manor High School students received medals for their participation in the annual AATG National German Exam (NGE).
The students receiving the medals were from German 3 and AP German. They were tested on their comprehension of spoken and written German. There were a number of participating PM students from German 3 and German 4 that performed above average with a very satisfactory showing.
Over 15,000 high school students of German are administered the NGE each year. In its 66th year, it provides individual diagnostic feedback, rewards students through an extensive regional and national prized program, and creates a sense of accomplishment.
Across the country, there were 4,000 students that took the German 3 exam and 3,000 students that took the German 4 exam.
Natalie Aungst, Everyleigh Hunter, and Eliza Myer were recipients of the gold medal. The three PM students are among 481 that received a gold medal for the German 3 exam.
Gold medal recipients are eligible to interview in front of a panel. If selected, they would win a study abroad trip to Germany during the upcoming summer months.
Anna Mincemoyer and Laney McCanna are among the 377 silver medal winners for the German 3 exam.
Amelia Fetter and Maryam Alfayyadh were honored with a silver medal for the German 4 exam. They were among the 320 silver medal winners.
Matthew Palmeri was one of 357 students receiving the bronze medal for the German 3 exam, while Gage Myers was among the 276 students to receive the bronze medal in the German 4 exam.
Congratulations to these students for their hard work and success!
