HASG College Year 12 Students on HSC Distinguished Achievement Honour Roll
25% of HASG College Year 12 attained Distinguished Achievement (Band 6)
results in the HSC for 2008 and were listed on the Honour Roll. In
addition, 100% of the College students who sat for Mathematics Extension (3
Units) and Legal Studies achieved results in the top 2 Bands in the State.
"I am proud of the academic achievements of our Year 12 in 2008," said
Principal Kaylar Michaelian. "They have worked very hard throughout the
year. Whilst the HSC result is an indication of a student’s personal
academic achievements, HASG College always strives to nurture and support
each student to achieve their best academic potential.
During the course of the year, HASG College organised special HSC Workshops
for Year 12 to help them to prepare for their examinations.
"Our HSC workshops have been effective in assisting our Year 12 students
reach their individual potential and we will follow through in 2009 in
continuing and expanding these special Workshops for Years 11 and 12," added
Mr Michaelian.
HASG College Alumni Executive member, Mr Haig Kayserian said: "HASG Alumni
will be playing a greater role in 2009 in assisting Years 11 and 12 of
College in their preparation for the HSC through these dedicated Workshops."
He added: "Having recently gone through the experience of the HSC, the HASG
College Alumni can offer invaluable insights, experience and guidance for
our College students who are preparing for the HSC. This is one of the ways
the HASG College Alumni give back to their alma mater and to the Community."
Haig Kayserian was a graduate of HASG College’s Class of 2000, which
out-ranked all High Schools and Colleges in the Northern Beaches area,
including Manly Selective High School, in the HSC that year.
HASG College Board Chairman Ara Vartoukian said: "Nurturing and guiding our
students to achieve their personal best academically is one of the pillars
of our College."
He added: "We are very proud of our Class of 2008 and wish them success and
fulfilment in their tertiary studies and careers ahead."
On average, over 65% of HASG College Graduates each year enter Universities.
In some years, this figure is more than 80%. This is more than double the
state average of 30%, according to the NSW Board of Studies.
