Freshman Induction Ceremony
The 170 students in NDCL’s class of 2021 celebrated their role in living out and advancing NDCL’s mission and core values during the Freshman Induction Ceremony in the Notre Dame Educational Center Chapel the evening of Sept. 20.
Senior Sarah Sahlani, Student Activities Board president, challenged the freshmen to take advantage of every opportunity to grow and develop during their high school years.
“The one thing I want you to remember is that you are now where you belong. At times, there might be some doubts in your head about who you are, who you want to be, and what your next steps should be. This school will help you become who God intends you to be,” Sarah stressed.
National Merit recognition
Based upon their outstanding performance on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) last October, seniors Hailey Oppenlander, Gregory Owendoff and Lillian Martin have earned national recognition from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.
Hailey has been named a National Merit semifinalist, which is a distinction earned by less than 1 percent of all high school seniors in the United States.
She will now compete for finalist status in the National Merit Program by submitting a comprehensive application documenting her academic achievements. Finalists are eligible for scholarships sponsored by the National Merit Program as well as by businesses and colleges throughout the country.
Gregory and Lillian have been named commended students. They scored among the top 3 percent of more than 1.6 million students nationwide who took the PSAT. While commended students do not continue in the National Merit scholarship process, their elite academic status positions them well for college admission and scholarships offered by individual universities.
“We are very proud of Hailey, Greg and Lilli,” commented Principal Joseph A. Waler. “Their rank among the very best students in the entire nation is a testimony to their hard work and to the quality of NDCL’s academic program.”
