Congratulations to seniors Sadie Piatt and Sydney Manista on being named semifinalists in the 2014 National Merit Scholarship Program. Over 1.5 million students entered the National Merit Scholarship program by taking the PSAT with only 16,000 advancing to the semifinals. These semifinalists represent less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors. To advance to the finalist levels, semifinalists must complete a detailed scholarship application and must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school. Semifinalists that advance to the Finalist level will be notified of this designation in February.
