Villa Alumni on the National Merit Semi-Finalist List
Three Villa Academy Alumni are semifinalists for the National Merit Scholarship Program, making them among the top 1 percent of high school seniors. This week the program named 16,000 students as top scorers on the 2008 Preliminary SAT, and among the names were Villa Alumni, Andrew Kaluzny, Michael Penuelas, and Daniel Stewart.
Three students is a very strong showing for a class of only 40 students! These numbers give Villa’s 2007 graduating class a semifinalist percentage of 7.5!
Students that make the semifinalist level may become finalists eligible for scholarships from National Merit Scholarship, colleges and universities and corporate sponsors.
Congratulations Andrew, Michael, and Daniel!
