Hicksville Public Schools: National Merit Scholarship Program Honorees

Press release from Hicksville Public Schools:

10/28/2021

Translate Hicksville High School students Aryan Jain, Jaskaran Kohli, Daniel Rivero, Sam Zhen and Sean Zhen were named Commended Students as part of the 2022 National Merit Scholarship Program. Of the 1.5 million entrants to the program, 50,000 with the highest Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) scores qualify for recognition. That places these five Hicksville students in the top 3% of test takers. Although Commended Students do not continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships, some of these students do become candidates for special scholarships sponsored by corporations and businesses. While adapting to the “New Normal” in this 2021 – 2022 school year, we are making every attempt to provide our student performers with the best opportunities to present high quality and safe performances.  While limitations will be in place, we look forward to inviting families to view these live performances in a safe manner. With this in mind, please note the following schedule adjustments: High School Tri-M Recital:   Originally scheduled for October 28th at 7:30pm, will now be held on November 30th at 7:30pm.  Additional information to be provided. High School Fall Drama: Originally scheduled for November 18-20 is being rescheduled to 2022.  Additional information to be provided. The Fine Arts Department thanks the Hicksville Community for its continued support, and our students are eager to hear the applause once again.  Information regarding our Winter concerts will be available soon.
