Progress reports are now available on PowerSchool. See here for the communication sent to students and families on Thursday, November 13.

Students have received a letter indicating the status of their off-campus privileges. These privileges are re-assessed at each mid-semester and semester reporting date. To maintain privileges, students must have passing grades (no NCs) in all of their classes, be in good behavioral standing with the school, and have no outstanding items or fees with the Info Center.

Star reports were mailed home to families of 9th and 10th graders on Friday, November 14. As a school, we look forward to using this valuable information to ensure instruction is meeting the needs of students.

Two seniors are being recognized for their achievement in the National Merit Scholarship Competition - which students enter by taking the PSAT in their junior year. These are prestigious honors, and we Souhegan is very proud of both of these students!

We are proud to recognize senior Noah Fillion as a National Merit Commended Student, an honor awarded to students who score among the top performers nationwide on the 2024 PSAT/NMSQT—typically placing them in roughly the top 3% of test takers (top 50,000 out of more than 1.3 million) This distinction highlights exceptional academic promise and national-level achievement.

We are excited to announce that senior Carl Berlack has been named a National Merit Semi-Finalist, a prestigious honor reserved for students whose PSAT/NMSQT scores place them among the top 1% of test takers in their state (approximately the top 16,000 nationwide). This accomplishment qualifies Carl to continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships and reflects truly outstanding academic performance. We wish Carl luck as he moves forward in the competition!
