Class of 2022 National Merit Scholars
National Merit Scholarship Class of 2022
The National Merit® Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships that began in 1955. Of the 1.5 million entrants, some 50,000 with the highest PSAT/NMSQT® Selection Index scores (calculated by doubling the sum of the Reading, Writing and Language, and Math Test scores) qualify for recognition in the National Merit Scholarship Program. These students qualify as either Commended Students or Semifinalists. Commended Students
About 34,000 of the approximately 50,000 high scorers on the PSAT/NMSQT receive Letters of Commendation in recognition of their outstanding academic promise. Six students from Mahtomedi Public Schools were announced as commended students in the 2022 National Merit Scholarship Program. Semifinalist Students
About 16,000 students, or approximately one-third of the 50,000 high scorers, are notified that they have qualified as Semifinalists. Semifinalists are the highest scoring entrants in each state. Semifinalists have an opportunity to continue in the competition and advance to the Finalist category and compete for National Merit Scholarships worth more than $30 million. Two students from Mahtomedi Public Schools were announced as semifinalists in the 2022 National Merit Scholarship Program.

Mahtomedi Graduation Rates
In the spring of 2022, Minnesota graduation rates for 2021 were released and Mahtomedi Public Schools continues to be among the highest in the state of Minnesota. The 2021 four-year graduation rate has remained stable and around 97%. This notable achievement reflects the considerable effort our staff made during the global pandemic to support our students.
Students Demonstrate Agency Through History Day Projects
As a part of the ninth-grade social studies curriculum at Mahtomedi High School, students engage in History Day projects. History Day teaches students to conduct in-depth research, use primary and secondary sources, read a variety of texts, analyze and synthesize information, and write and present historical content. Students choose a topic that relates to an annual theme (the 2021 theme is Communication in History: the Key to Understanding), research that topic, and present their research in one of five presentation categories: Research Paper, Exhibit, Documentary, Performance, or Website. Students demonstrate agency (voice and choice) by finding their connection to the topic and using their passion for certain presentation categories to share the information. We had five students compete at the state-level competition. Mahtomedi High School students Aleila Pierre-Louis and Nikki Wuori won first-place at the Minnesota History Day competition and competed at the National History Day Competition.
