Ward Melville's National Merit Commended Students Announced

Twenty-one students receive national honor.

Twenty-one Ward Melville High School seniors have been named Commended Students in the National Merit Scholarship Program. 

Approximately 34,000 students throughout the nation received this honor, which is based upon the exceptional academic promise they demonstrated on the qualifying test used for program entry. 

Although they will not continue in the 2014 competition, these students placed among the top five percent of more than 1.5 million students who entered the 2014 competition by taking the 2012 PSAT.
