Episcopal senior Jessica Ferreyra has been recognized by the College Board’s National Hispanic Recognition Program.

The program, established in 1983, is a College Board program that provides national recognition of the exceptional academic achievements of Hispanic high school seniors and identifies them for postsecondary institutions.

Students enter the program by taking the PSAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test as high school juniors and by identifying themselves as Hispanic. From more than 140,000 students nationwide, approximately 4,200 of the highest scoring students were identified.
