Montrose National Merit Honors For 5 Seniors
National recognition!
Five Montrose seniors were honored as National Merit Semifinalists, out of only 282 in the entire state– over performing by a factor of 10. Massachusetts has the highest score cutoff for honors of any state in the U.S., so the 3 seniors had to receive near-perfect scores on the qualifying test to earn this distinction.
In addition, 2 Montrose seniors were honored as National Merit Commended Scholars, after scoring among the top 3% in the U.S. on the qualifying test. Almost 14% of the senior class received National Merit honors.

Congratulations to Semifinalists Gabriella D. ‘26, Carolina F. ‘26 and Sanya N. ‘26, and Commended Students Kayla D. ‘26 and Callie J. ‘26!
To qualify, students must take the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) during their junior year, achieve a high score in their state, and complete several steps to become a Finalist, including submitting a scholarship application, an essay, and SAT/ACT scores, all while maintaining a strong academic record and receiving principal endorsement.
