Teen All-Stars is the O-D's annual recognition of 30 of the region's top high school seniors.

Criteria to consider are: academic records, student participation in extra-curricular activities, volunteer efforts and participation in other programs. Part-time employment also is noteworthy.

Letters from nominators should be personal and sincere and reflect the individuality of the candidate, not formatted letters that might be used to nominate others. We also encourage one nomination per student.

A special section will be published Wednesday, June 4. If you have any questions, call Dave Dudajek at 792-5090 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays or e-mail ddudajek@uticaod.com
