CANTON, GA -- Twenty-four high school seniors in the Cherokee County School District have been named National Merit Commended Students by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.

This recognition, up from 13 honorees from the previous school year, is based on the high scores the students earned on the PSAT.

Although these students do not continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships, some become candidates for Special Scholarships sponsored by corporations and businesses that will be awarded in the spring (SIGN UP: Get Patch's Daily Newsletter and Real Time News Alerts.
