Today in chapel, Patrick Adams '24, Barrow Solomon '24, and Shivani Swaminathan '24 were recognized as ESD’s 2024 National Merit Scholarship Semifinalists.

Each year, the National Merit Scholarship Program honors individual students who show exceptional academic ability and potential for success in rigorous college studies. Adams, Solomon, and Swaminathan are among the roughly 16,000 Semifinalists announced of the 1.5 million students who took the PSAT last fall. These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,140 Merit Scholarship awards worth $28 million that will be offered next spring. 

Congratulations, Eagles!
