What if I don't qualify for Honors Day?
Students who do not qualify for Honors Day will very likely qualify for other scholarship money based on ACT and GPA, along with other considerations such as community and campus involvement. Need-based aid is also available for many students. The first step in getting that scholarship money is to apply online and then send your ACT/SAT scores and high school transcript to Lyon at:
