Malverne BOE honors student Maxwell Henry
The Malverne Board Education presented Malverne High School student Maxwell Henry with an award for his achievements during its monthly meeting on Oct. 13.
Henry was recently selected as a commended student in the 2010 National Merit Scholarship program. Commended students, school officials said, are recognized for their exceptional academic promise, as demonstrated on the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying test. Out of the more than 1.5 million students who entered the nationwide competition, only the top 5 percent are given the commended student distinction, according to the program's Web site.
