Connor Wesley, a Lubbock-Cooper High School senior, has been named a semifinalist in the 2022 National Merit Scholarship Program.
An estimated 16,000 students were chosen for this honor based upon high school academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, honors and awards received, and highest scoring in the 2020 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. Semifinalist students in Texas had to meet a qualifying index score of 220.
"I'm thankful for this opportunity," said Connor. "It's an affirmation, like seeing the sun rise for the first time. It gives me nothing but gratitude for the supporting and inspiring people in my life and even more hope for what's to come."
Connor participates in a number of activities at Lubbock-Cooper High School, including Academic Decathlon, UIL math, UIL science, UIL computer science, U.S. National Chemistry Olympiad, and the Student Innovation Challenge. He is a NASA High School Aerospace Scholar and a chemistry intern at Texas Tech University.
He hopes to attend MIT and double major in Chemistry and Engineering.
National Merit Finalists will be announced in February 2022.
Congratulations, Connor! The Pirate family is so proud of your hard work!

On Friday, September 17, the Pirate varsity football team will host the Monterey Plainsmen at 7:00 p.m. at Pirate Stadium at First United Park.
As a Pirate Family, we are uniting with the Monterey community to white out Pirate Stadium in memory of Lataiya White, mother of a Lubbock-Cooper High School student and a Monterey High School varsity football player. Mrs. White passed away earlier this week.
Pirate fans, please wear white to Friday night's game (and spread the word) to show your support for this family!
"Why don't they teach that in school?"
We do!
Did you know that Lubbock-Cooper High School offers Adulting 101/102 to juniors and seniors? Designed around student requests, this class teaches students lessons that will help them succeed after they graduate and move out on their own. Topics include grocery shopping within a budget, basic sewing and cooking skills, changing flat tires, opening bank accounts, asking for raises, and the basics of insurance, credit, and taxes, - plus much more! Industry experts in various fields will visit with students throughout the year, and students will participate in hands-on, "real world" lessons!
Dr. Felix Morales from Texas Tech University Health Science Center brought a team to LCHS to visit with junior and seniors interested in pursuing careers in the medical field. They panel spoke about the early assurance programs into Texas Tech's medical program, and LCHS alumni Keegan Dunn and Lauren Irish, both recently accepted into TTUHSC Medical School, answered questions and shared their experiences.
Reminder: Monday, September 6 is a staff and student holiday for Lubbock-Cooper ISD.
