Archmere Academy senior Raylin Xu has been named one of 53 state winners of a National Honor Society Scholarship from the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP). A total of 200 NHS finalists were first chosen from among nearly 6,800 applicants. From the 200 finalists, 53 state winners were selected. Each state winner receives a $1,500 college scholarship.
Participating National Honor Society chapters from across the country nominated at least two senior members to compete in this year’s program. Finalists were selected on the basis of their leadership skills, participation in service organizations, clubs, and other student groups at school and in the community, and their academic record. As a state winner, Raylin is recognized as one of the top 53 NHS members in the nation this school year.
