OCFSD is celebrating two students who have been named 2022 National Merit Scholarship Commended Students.

OCHS seniors Tyler Jossart and Evan Klamar are being nationally recognized for their exceptional academic promise as 2022 Commended Students.

"We are so proud of Tyler and Evan for their passion and dedication to their learning," OCHS Principal Candis Mongan said. "To be recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program is an outstanding accomplishment and is the direct result of the hard work that these students have put in over the course of their high school careers. We know this is only the beginning of great things ahead!"

''These students represent a valuable national resource; recognizing their accomplishments, as well as the key role their schools play in their academic development, is vital to the advancement of educational excellence in our nation," a spokesperson for NMSC said.

Congratulations, Tyler and Evan! We are so proud of you!
