A Portrait of a Graduate is a shared vision developed with input from educators, families, students, and community members that defines the skills and attributes students need to succeed beyond the classroom.
Each month, the District proudly recognizes students who exemplify the skills outlined in our Portrait of a Graduate. At this month’s School Board meeting, teachers honored students in grades K–2 for their outstanding critical thinking skills, celebrating those who ask thoughtful questions, analyze information, and make well-reasoned decisions by considering multiple perspectives and possible solutions.

At the middle school level, students in grades six through eight were recognized for their strong problem-solving skills. These students were celebrated for their ability to identify challenges, think critically, and take purposeful action toward effective solutions.

At the high school level, Students of the Month—one student per grade—were recognized for going above and beyond through academic achievement and active involvement in their school and community. These students exemplify the qualities of the Portrait of a Quakertown Graduate.
Congratulations to our Portrait Leaders, and thank you for your continued hard work!
