National Merit Recognition

It is our honor to acknowledge the outstanding accomplishments of three Lisle High School seniors.  Every fall, over 1.3 million of the most academically accomplished juniors in the nation participate in the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). As a result of their achievement and success on this test, Lisle seniors Lukas Nagler and Cecilia Roth have been recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program as Commended Students, and Lisle senior, Shiv Patel has been recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program as a Semifinalist. 

National Merit qualifiers are named on the basis of a nationally applied selection index score which measures critical reading, mathematics, and writing skills. Commended Students are among the top 34,000 scorers nationwide and Semifinalists are among the top 16,000 highest scorers nationwide.  Shiv will now continue in the competition, competing for some 7,500 National Merit Scholarships worth nearly $30 million that will be offered this spring.

It is also our honor to acknowledge the outstanding work of two Lisle High School students. Each year, the National Recognition Programs honor the strong academic achievements of underrepresented students and are a great way for students to showcase their hard work in high school. We are proud to recognize Lisle senior Nicolas Bundschuh and Lisle junior Leah Kreller.

These students were recognized at the September 23 Board meeting for their outstanding work while here at Lisle. Congratulations!
