40 LPS students have been recognized by National Merit Scholarship Program
Seven students from Littleton Public Schools’ three high schools have been named National Merit Semifinalists, an additional 31 were named National Merit Commended Scholars, 1 was named National Hispanic Scholar and 1 was named Achievement Scholar. More than 1.3 million students in 21,000 U.S. high schools entered the 2006 Merit Program, and about 16,000 nationally qualified as National Merit Semifinalists. To be named a Semifinalist, a student must score in the top range of the PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test), which is given nationally. LPS Semifinalists will now compete with other students nationally to become National Merit Finalists and for a share of more than $30 million in scholarship money.
