Congratulations to Izaak Montoya - National Merit Semi-Finalist
Congratulations are in order for LMHS Senior, Izaak Montoya! Izaak has earned the recognition of National Merit Semifinalist, an achievement only 16,000 high school students across the nation earned this year.
Izaak is among an elite academic group of high schoolers, who represent less than 1% of seniors nationwide and include the highest scoring teens on the 2019 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.
About 90 percent of the semifinalists will be named finalists in February. That makes them eligible for $2,500 scholarships awarded by National Merit and other scholarships awarded to semifinalists by colleges, universities, and businesses.
Altogether, about 7,600 scholarships worth more than $30 million are expected to be awarded in four increments between April and July 2021.
Congratulations Izaak! We are proud of you!
