✨National Merit Scholarship Program Finalists✨

Three GAHS seniors have been named National Merit Scholarship Program Finalists! This distinguished honor places them among the top 1.2% of high school seniors in the nation, representing the top 15,000 students nationwide.

Out of more than 1.3 million students who enter the program each year, advancing to finalist standing reflects outstanding PSAT performance, exceptional academic achievement, strong leadership, and a commitment to excellence both inside and outside the classroom.

At the Warrior Way Breakfast yesterday, GAHS Principal Lusk announced this year's finalists are:

🌟 Lanie Jonas

We are of you all for your hard work and accomplishments. Congratulations on this incredible achievement, Warriors!

Some things never change.

Pennsylvania's state parks and forests are still open, still awesome, and are still free to enter.
