Announcing Four FCS National Merit Finalists

Four Friends’ Central seniors – Mico Carpiniello, Luke Halpern, Sean Scott, and Andrew Yu – have been named National Merit Scholarship Program finalists. Students are recognized based on the top scores of the PSAT/NMSQT. Fifty thousand students are invited to apply for the program, and from that pool, 15,000 students advance to finalist standing. Of the finalists, 7,250 will be selected to receive a National Merit Scholarship award. Winners will be announced in March. Congratulations to these outstanding students on their achievements so far!
