The Princeton Prize in Race Relations recognizes high school students who are combating racism in their schools and communities. Each region selects a winner who receives $1,000 and an all expense paid trip to Princeton for a national leadership conference. In addition, other outstanding students are recognized with a certificate of recognition and local awards ceremony. Several Montclair students over the last several years have received this honor. More information is available at https://pprize.princeton.edu/. The deadline for application is January 31, 2022.
