Description

Fifty-two Troy School District students were named 2021 National Merit Finalists by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. This honor is bestowed to less than one percent of students nationwide, based on their scores on the Preliminary SAT. Over 1.5 million juniors in about 21,000 high schools take the PSAT every year. Our students now advance as Finalists and will be considered for the 7,500 National Merit Scholarships of at least $2,500 each to be offered in March of 2021.

"I am amazed by the large numbers of students from the TSD who are recognized annually for this National honor," said Troy Schools Superintendent Dr. Rich Machesky. "This speaks to the dedication of our students, parents and teachers across our learning community who work together to provide the best educational opportunities for our students.
