Kayla Fraley, a Manhattan senior at Manhattan High School, will be among seniors from 10 area Kansas high schools to be honored Monday, Nov. 7, by the University of Kansas Alumni Association and KU Endowment.

A total of 87 seniors from high schools in Clay, Pottawatomie and Riley counties will be recognized for their academic achievements and named Kansas Honor Scholars at a 6:30 p.m. dinner and program at the Manhattan Country Club, 1531 N. 10th St., Manhattan.

Since 1971, the Kansas Honors Program has recognized over 114,000 scholars, who rank in the top 10 percent of their high school senior classes and are selected regardless of occupational plans or higher-education goals. Each year, the KU Alumni Association and its volunteers host 41 programs that reach all 105 counties across the state and include more than 360 high schools.
