Chiefland High School graduate Roger Sliney was selected as a Santa Fe College Ambassador for the next school year.

Sliney was recognized as one of the top students at Santa Fe and passed an intense interview process to be picked as one of the top representatives of the school.

Sliney joins 15 other students from throughout the state to be part of the Student Ambassador Program.

In the three-round interview process, candidates went through group interviews, individual presentations and interviews and teamwork activites.

As school starts to s-l-o-w-l-y wind to a close, awards, scholarships and honors start coming students way.

But the first academic awards were bestowed at the "Night of Excellence" hosted by the Levy County Schools Foundation and the Levy County School Board at Bronson Elementary School on the evening of April 22.
