The Academic Recognition Banquet, an annual event sponsored by the Cherry Hill Education Foundation for the Cherry Hill Public Schools, was held on Sunday, June 14 at Lucien’s Distinguished Catering. The event honored 299 graduating seniors from Cherry Hill High Schools East and West and formally recognize the students’ academic achievements.
The highlight of the program was the awarding of special plaques to all senior honorees after an invited alumnus, Dr. David Horowitz from the Cherry Hill East Class of 1981, addressed the audience of 576 guests. The guests included parents, students, school administrators, teachers and representatives of the Cherry Hill Education Foundation.
In addition to the plaques, each senior received a gift of the game of Cherry Hill-opoly, a game developed by the Foundation in cooperation with Mayor Chuck Cahn, Cherry Hill Township, and the Cherry Hill Public Schools. The gift was made possible through the generosity of Mayor Chuck Cahn and his wife, Stephanie.
The Cherry Hill Education Foundation paid all of the event’s expenses for the students.
