Five Ridgewood High School students have been named National Merit Scholarship semifinalists and 33 others have received letters of commendation.
More than 1.5 million students took the 2011 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) last October and entered the National Merit Program, a nationwide competition for recognition and awards.
Only some 16,000 who qualified as semifinalists have an opportunity to continue in the competition for Merit Scholarships to be offered
next spring.
