McIntosh High graduating senior Alistair Plotnick has been named a 2022 Georgia Scholar by the Georgia Department of Education.

Plotnick is among 216 graduating high school seniors from across the state to have earned the designation. Students eligible for Georgia Scholar recognition are high school seniors who exhibit excellence in all phases of school life, in community activities, and in the home.

“I offer my sincere congratulations to the 2022 Georgia Scholar honorees,” State School Superintendent Richard Woods said. “These students have worked hard, become leaders in their schools and communities, and taken advantage of the opportunities offered in Georgia public schools. I wish them well as they embark on their next steps after high school and know they’ll continue to make us all proud.”

Georgia Scholars are students who have carried exemplary course loads during their four years of high school; who performed excellently in all courses, who successfully participated in interscholastic events at their schools and in their communities; and who have assumed active roles in extracurricular activities sponsored by their schools. Each Georgia Scholar receives a seal for his or her diploma.
