This award is presented annually to a high school junior who has shown intellectual promise, significant involvement in extracurricular activities, and community service.

• This year’s book is Benjamin Franklin, by Edmund S. Morgan.
• Currently, the Yale Book Award is offered at twenty six local high schools. Periodically, at the recommendation of a Yale parent or Alum (and after the recipient school approves), additional schools are added to our list.
