Senior Jonathan McElroy has been named Live Oak's first National Merit Finalist. About 1.5 million high school juniors enter the
National Merit Scholarship Program each year by taking the PSAT/NMSQT, but only about 15,000 (less than one percent) are named Finalists, and Jonathan is one of only five from the Waco area for 2012. In addition, senior Stephen Carter has been named a National Merit Commended Student for also being one of about 50,000 high scorers on the PSAT/NMSQT.
