George School is proud to announce that senior Theresa Williamson is among approximately 3,000 outstanding National Achievement Scholarship Program participants being referred to United States colleges and universities in recognition of their potential for academic success in college. These students scored in the top five percent of more than 120,000 Black Americans who requested consideration in the 2005 National Achievement Program when they took the 2003 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT).

The National Achievement Scholarship Program, founded in 1964, is a privately-financed annual academic competition established specifically to honor outstanding Black American high school students.
