<p>Assuming your question is for college applications - anything from middle school will be left off the application. It’s a question of “what have you done for me lately.” My daughter has the congressional gold medal. I have no idea if it helped her in college acceptances but the award ceremony/weekend was so worthwhile. She went by herself to DC, stayed in a college dorm with the other kids, they got to tour DC and they got VIP entrance to every single memorial/etc. In other words they skipped all the lines. She absolutely had the experience of a lifetime. So be sure she finishes up that one, it is so worthwhile. Plus there are opportunities for alums forever. My daughter hasn’t benefitted from any of them - yet - but they are there. Internships, jobs, etc. And congratulations to your daughter - it’s a LOT of work.</p>
