Three students from Bonner County earned their names on the honors lists at their respective universities for the spring 2026 semester. 

From Sandpoint, Caleb Norling was named to the dean’s list at Olivet Nazarene University, a Christian liberal arts university in Illinois, earning a 3.50 GPA or higher this semester. Chase Miller, also hailing from Sandpoint, earned dean’s list honors at Cedarville University, an evangelical university in southwest Ohio, by achieving a 3.75 GPA or higher. 

On the other side of the country, Tanyr Hahn of Priest River was named to Southern New Hampshire University's President’s list. Hahn earned at least a 3.7 GPA across the 16-week spring term. 

SNHU also announced that Tanya Tatchell from Bonners Ferry made the President’s List for the spring term.
