SP Bookprize for outstanding performance?

I've always longed for some sort of "monetary award" one can always get from being just the plain top few in class.

School at Such, Thoughts on Leadership

School feels very slow on my side, but in the number of weeks of passed school terms, 4 terms had already passed with week 5 starting next.
