Through the grant awarded by the Texas Women's League in May 2025, La Grange High School was able to acquire three sets of rechargeable calculators. These calculators are now available for use in the Learning Center, Learning Lab, After School Testing Center, and for academic testing throughout the year. Classroom sets have already been provided to the Math and Science departments. The addition of these devices has been well received, and the participating classes are enthusiastic about integrating them into daily instruction. La Grange High School sincerely appreciates the ongoing support and grant opportunities provided by the Texas Women's League, which have significantly contributed to the resources available for our teachers, students, and classrooms.

Principal John Pineda of La Grange High School announced today that Eleanor Carey has been named a Commended Student in the 2026 National Merit Scholarship Program. A letter of Commendation from the school and the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), which conducts the program, was presented to this scholastically talented student.

About 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Although they will not continue in the 2026 competition for National Merit Scholarship awards, Commended Students placed among the top 50,000 students who entered the 2026 competition by taking the 2024 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT).

“Those being named Commended Students have demonstrated outstanding potential for academic success,” commented the NMSC spokesperson. “These students represent a valuable national resource; recognizing their accomplishments, as well as the key role their schools play in their academic development, is vital to the advancement of educational excellence in our nation. We hope that this recognition will help broaden their educational opportunities and encourage them as they continue their pursuit of academic success.”
