Important Reminders, Upcoming Events, and Celebrations

Good afternoon, Mustangs!

I am so proud to recognize and celebrate the academic accomplishments of 3 students!

Congratulations to Lucy Jorgenson for scoring a perfect 36 on her ACT test! The average nationwide composite ACT score is 19.4. Only 2,958 of the approximately 1.38 million (0.21%) students who took the ACT test in 2025 scored a perfect 36.

I am also very pleased to congratulate Stella Buisson and Renata Turska on earning "Commended Student" status in the 2027 National Merit Scholarship Program. The exceptional academic promise demonstrated by their outstanding performance on the qualifying test placed them in the top 50,000 students who entered the 2027 competition. While they will not continue in the 2027 competition for National Merit Scholarship awards, these students represent a valuable national resource and we are so proud to call them Mustangs!

Have a great weekend, Mustangs!
