The academic abilities of WCS high school students are continuing to break records. This year, 138 students were named National Merit Commended Students. The previous record, 94, was set in 2022.
Each year, about 34,000 students receive this honor based on their high PSAT/NMSQT exam scores, putting them among the top five percent of test-takers in the nation. The Commended Students are chosen based on a nationally-applied Selection Index score, and, though they do not continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships, some of the students still have the possibility of getting corporation or business-sponsored scholarships.
