Four BHS students have achieved outstanding results on the PSAT/NMSQT and become Semifinalists in the National Merit Scholarship Competition.

• Emmanuel Dodson
• Anna Halladay
• Simon Kissam
• Elliot Montroll

Emmanuel, Anna, Simon, and Elliot have each scored highly on Reading, Writing/Language, and Math, and will join other students from around the country in competing for around 7500 National Merit Scholarships to be awarded this March.

The National Merit Scholarship Program rewards students across the country for their achievement. To be considered, students must have strong academics, extracurricular activities, and recommendation from school officials in along with their scores on the PSAT/MNSQT. Students who are selected as winners receive both prestige and $2500 towards the cost of college tuition.

In addition to competing for the scholarship, the students can select two colleges or universities for the competition to notify about their status as semifinalists.

Congratulations to our students!
