Recently the National Merit Scholarships named 141 high school students from Arkansas as National Merit Scholar Semifinalists.
Of those students, three were home schoolers:
- Margaret Stiritz from Russellville
- Josiah Linderman from Searcy
- Christian Wilson from Sherwood
To be named as a National Merit Scholar Semifinalist is a tremendous honor.
Students vying for the National Merit Scholarships apply by taking the PSAT exam.
The Arkansas Department of Education has taken steps this year to increase home schoolers’ access to the PSAT.
Please join us in congratulating these students on their achievement!
