Paws Applause:

Morgan Benedik, a 2017 graduate of Shippensburg High has been named a National Merit Scholarship Finalist!

Another Greyhound making us proud!

National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) was established in 1955 — a time in which there was concern that the United States was lagging behind in the cold war scientific race, but the public was indifferent to rewarding intellectual accomplishment. In response, the National Merit Scholarship Program was founded to identify and honor scholastically talented American youth and to encourage them to develop their abilities to the fullest. Through this nationwide competition National Merit Scholarships are awarded to program Finalists and Special Scholarships are awarded to other high performing participants who meet a corporate sponsor's eligibility criteria.

 

Morgan will be attending West Chester University in the fall!
