Hamilton County commissioners recognized some of the area's brightest minds on Thursday.

Fifty Hamilton County students earned at least a 30 on the ACT or at least 1,400 on the SAT college entrance exams.

That puts them in the Top 3 percent of the nation.

Students earned full ride scholarships to Harvard, NYU and appointments to West Point just to name a few.

Superintendent Scales: "These are the youngsters that we're all gonna be working for in a few years, if we live long enough. This is our future, and these youngsters deserve the kind of recognition that they're getting."

One of the students scored both a 30 or higher on the ACT and a 1,400 or more on the SAT.
