Each year, Alabama Public Television recognizes five Alabama high school students as Young Heroes. Each student receives a scholarship and other prizes. Selection is based on the student’s grades, school participation, community support and, most important, having overcome some sort of extraordinary difficulty or hardship.

Before you begin filling out the form, you will want to gather the following information about the student:

1. Name
2. Grade Point Average
3. Hometown
4. High School name
5. High School Activities
6. Community Activities
7. Details of the student’s story

Completion of the online form nominates your Young Hero to be recognized with this honor. If you have questions, please email Dwayne Johnson at [email protected]. Material must be received by January 31, 2025.

The winners will be notified in March, 2025.
