Alexa Allen of Monmouth, a senior at Monmouth Academy, is receiving the 2022 Principal’s Award, according to a news release from Principal Ted Finn.

The award, sponsored by the Maine Principals’ Association, is given in recognition of a high school senior’s academic achievement and citizenship.

“Throughout her years at Monmouth Academy, Alexa has distinguished herself in the classroom, on the playing field, and as a leader in the school and the community,” Finn noted in making the award. “She very much deserves this recognition.”

Allen, Finn, and other award winners and their principals have planned to participate in a live virtual scholarship drawing event on Friday, April 1.

Ten $1,000 scholarships will be drawn 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.
