West Seattle schools: National Merit Scholarship semi-finalist @ Chief Sealth

Congratulations to Chief Sealth International High School student Brian Griffith – he is one of just 32 students in Seattle Public Schools who have made it into the semifinals for this year’s National Merit Scholarship Program. Nationwide, 16,000 students are in the running, with high scores on last year’s Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. He’s the only one this year from schools in our area. Next spring, more than half of them will get scholarships with a total value of about $34 million.
