THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, February 21, 2020 Page 5 Everett resident named National Merit Finalist M ystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) senior David Nguyen of Everett was named a National Merit Scholar Finalist, joining just 15,000 students nationwide – well under one percent – in attaining the distinction. He becomes the sixth fi nalist in MVRCS history and looks to join Sophie Carroll ’13 and Justin Nguyen ’14 as National Merit Scholars. Bound for Columbia University to study computer science, Nguyen was one of over 1.5 million juniors in 2018 in 21,000 high schools across America who entered the contest by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which serves as an initial screen of program entrants. “I can’t say this came as a great shock to me,” said MVRCS Assistant Director Matthew Stone. “David’s intellect is matched by his willingness to be a part of our school community and make an impact on the lives of others. His academic achievements and accomplishments are what AUTOTECH 1989 SINCE Get Your Vehicle Winter Ready!

Nguyen will learn his fate in March. NMSC, a nonprofit organization that operates without government assistance, was established in 1955 specifi cally to conduct the annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Scholarships are underwritten by the NMSC with its own funds and by approximately 400 business organizations and higher education institutions that share NMSC’s goals of honoring the nation’s scholastic champions and encouraging the pursuit of academic excellence.
