Congratulations to Jonathan Botek ’17, who has been named a National Merit Semifinalist!

Jonathan now has the opportunity to qualify as a finalist and will be notified about that distinction in February.
Commended Students
And Congratulations to Rachel Allen ’16, Bennett Hilkert ’16 and Nikhil Nair ’16, who were named Commended Students in the National Merit Scholarship Program.

They placed among the top five percent of test takers.
