Students were recognized for their overall academic and extracurricular achievements in high school.

Four Dearborn high school students have been named to the 2013 "Brightest & Best" list of students in the Detroit Metro area.

The students are Lara Fawaz of Dearborn High School, Jennifer Cimino of Divine Child High School, Ali Elreichouni of Fordson High School, and Matthew Krawczyk of the Henry Ford Academy.

Each year, Channel 7 hosts a special event at WXYZ-TV and invites more than 250 honorees and their families to attend. The station teamed up with Gardner-White Furniture again this year to present the awards.
