Nouvel Catholic Central is proud to announce that senior, Kathryn (Katie) Messana has been named semifinalist in the 2022 National Merit Scholarship Competition. Every October, approximately 1.6 million juniors across the country take the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT). Students who score in the top one percent achieve the distinction of National Merit Semifinalist. Most of these students move on to become Finalists, with some winning scholarship money for college. Additionally, students designated as Commended Students will be announced at a later date.
Katie is the daughter of Drs. Sigrid and Stephen Messana. She is involved in National Honor Society, Marching Band, Drama and Horseback Riding/Dressage. Katie and her family are members at Holy Spirit Catholic Church.
