They are among the 16,000 semifinalists nationwide. Last fall, 1.5 million juniors in 22,000 United State high schools took the National Merit Qualifying exams or PSAT.

“The students who have demonstrated this level of academic potential are impressive and reflect positively on our school system,” said Principal Jim Wager.

Congratulations to these students!
