The John L. Miller-Great Neck North High School presents the prestigious Alan L. Gleitsman Outstanding Graduate Award at its graduation ceremony each year. (The school’s other awards are given at the school’s Senior Awards Event, prior to commencement).

The late Alan Gleitsman, a 1947 graduate of then-Great Neck High School, established the Alan L. Gleitsman Outstanding Graduate Award in 1988 to be given annually to a North High School graduating senior. This year’s recipient of the Gleitsman Award is Raymond Lin. Raymond was featured previously as the North High Valedictorian.

Gleitsman Award winners must place within the top 10 percent of their graduating class, uphold a high level of quality involvement in student activities, be dedicated to the school and the well-being of fellow students, and have a commitment to pursue further education on the college level.
