Rome High School’s Isaac Roberts was recently named a National Merit Commended Student.
Commended Students are named by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) on the basis of a nationally applied Selection Index qualifying score. Students earning this designation have placed in about the top 34,000 scorers on the PSAT out of more than 1.5 million test-takers.
In recognition of their outstanding ability and potential for academic success in college, NMSC honors these students by sending letters of commendation to them. Although commended students do not continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships, some may be candidates for scholarships offered by corporate sponsors.
