<p>Hi! I am an international student. Is an acknowledgment paper for excellent grades( it looks like a diploma) given to me by a school considered an honor??</p>
<p>Yes, that is something you can list in the Education>Honors section. Most US high schools give an award like that. At our D’s high school it is called an Academic Excellence award.</p>
<p>We were given annually certificates for best performance in class, is that an honor too?</p>
<p>Yes, a certificate for the highest grade in particular subject is also an honor you could list. In our family’s HS they give a “student of the year” award annually in every subject.</p>
