The Elwood School District is proud to announce John H. Glenn High School seniors Brennan Finnegan and Rithika Narayan as 2021 National Merit Scholarship Finalists. 

Both students are among the top 15,000 students in the nation to be acknowledged for this prestigious recognition and will compete for some 7,500 available Merit Scholarships, totaling more than $30 million.

Brennan and Rithika are both active members of the school community and have won several noteworthy accolades during their time at John Glenn High School. After graduation, Brennan is considering attending Stony Brook University to pursue a possible major in engineering and applied sciences. Rithika intends to study artificial intelligence at Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science in Pennsylvania.

Brennan and Rithika both received Certificates of Merit from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation in February in commemoration of their outstanding academic achievements.
