An Elizabethtown High School student has been named a National Merit Finalist.
Reid Lunsford, 18, currently is in Bowling Green where he attends Gatton Academy of Mathematics and Science at Western Kentucky University.
The academy, for high school juniors and seniors, is where they get to live on campus and take up to about 60 hours of college credit while simultaneously finishing high school.
Lunsford has attended the academy the last two years and has been on campus the last two semesters after that not being the case previously because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He took the PSAT his junior year and because of his score, he was named a National Merit Semifinalist last year. He sent in an application, and two weeks ago he was selected as a finalist. Later, heâll possibly be selected for a scholarship for college.
