After the conclusion of the 2025-26 school year, Bret Harte had a total of 71 students that earned and maintained a perfect or better grade point average. Of the 71, seniors account for 20, juniors 14, sophomores 17, and freshman 20.

“We are incredibly proud of the 71 students who earned a GPA of 4.0 or higher this school year,” shared superintendent Scott Nanik. “Reaching this milestone takes hard work, focus, and a lot of heart. This achievement reflects their dedication and also shines a light on the amazing support from our teachers, staff, and families who cheer them on every single day. 

Nanik added, “To our students: thank you for inspiring us and showing what is possible when you give your best. We are so glad you are a part of our school community, and we cannot wait to see what you do next!”
