Three students named Presidential Scholar Candidates

Seniors Erin Finn and Rohan Nambiar were named semifinalists for the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program for their outstanding academic achievement and performance on their ACT or SAT tests. Senior Evan VordemEsche was named as a candidate. Finn received a perfect score on her ACT while Nambiar and VordemEsche both got perfect scores on the math portion of the SATs. “We are delighted that three members of the Class of 2023 — Erin, Rohan, and Evan — have received this wonderful national recognition,” Director of College Counseling Susan Marrs said. Each year up to 161 students are named U.S. Presidential Scholars and awarded the Presidential Scholars Medallion in June. The Presidential Scholars program began in 1964 and honors students who demonstrated excellent scholarship, leadership, and selfless service to others. It is one of the national’s highest honors for high school students.
