common app question regarding activities

<p>hey guys. i asked this question earlier on the common app thread but it got overlooked with all the other questions... so here it is again.</p>

<p>Are you allowed to add in things like awards from before high school years on the app? like if a kid was state champion/gold medalist in gymnastics or if a newspaper article featured another kid's art skills or something? or would that be irrelevant now that they are in high school?</p>

<p>thanks for anyone who can help answer this.</p>

<p>They're irrelevant.</p>
