School District U-46 has received notice from the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) announcing this year's Illinois State Scholars. A total of 230 students from Bartlett, Elgin, Larkin, South Elgin and Streamwood high schools have been named Illinois State Scholars by the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC). The State Scholar Program is an honorary recognition that is received by approximately 10 percent of Illinois high school graduates each year.

In order to qualify for the honor, high school students must take the ACT or SAT college entrance examination, perform in the top one-half of their high school class or score in the 95th percentile on a college entrance exam, and graduate from high school during the academic year in which they are selected.

For the 2009-2010 Illinois State Scholars, ISAC is presenting each scholar with a free subscription to Encyclopedia Britannica Online through June 30, 2010.
