National Merit Finalist

Two outstanding McCracken County High School seniors, Eden Bridge-Hayes and Daniel Crouse, have been named National Merit Finalists for the Class of 2025!

 

“This achievement reflects the dedication, perseverance, and excellence of our students, their families, and our schools,” said Josh Hunt, Superintendent. “We are extremely proud of Eden and Daniel for earning this recognition.”

 

The National Merit Scholarship Program is a prestigious academic competition that recognizes less than one percent of high school seniors nationwide. Earning the title of National Merit Finalist places these students among the top academic performers in the country, opening doors to highly competitive college admissions and scholarship opportunities.

 

To achieve this distinction, finalists undergo a rigorous application process, including outstanding PSAT/NMSQT scores, high academic performance, leadership roles, community service, employment history, and earned awards.

 

National Merit Scholarship winners will be announced in March!
