Bar Pins are given to students who earn Optime Merens consecutively in one academic year. Students who earn Optime Merens for all eight semesters in Grades 9 through 12 are awarded four bar pins.
Cum Laude awards are given to students who are enrolled in at least two academic semesters in one year in a particular department and who earn a GPA of at least 95 for all courses in that department that year.
