We are immensely proud of our Stratford Prep Blackford students recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program, a prestigious distinction awarded to less than one percent of high school seniors nationwide. This extraordinary achievement reflects not only our scholars’ exceptional academic dedication, intellectual curiosity, and rigorous work ethic, but also the vibrant community of educators, mentors, and families supporting their success.
