🎉 Congratulations to Evan Chowanec! 🎉

We are proud to announce that Johnson Creek High School Senior Evan Chowanec has been named a Semifinalist in the 2026 National Merit Scholarship Program!

This honor is reserved for fewer than 1% of U.S. high school seniors. Over 1.3 million students entered the program by taking the PSAT/NMSQT, and only about 16,000 earned Semifinalist status.

Semifinalists now have the opportunity to compete for nearly $26 million in scholarships next spring. To advance to Finalist, Evan must submit a detailed scholarship application, provide a stellar academic record, write an essay, and confirm his scores with the SAT or ACT.

About 95% of Semifinalists become Finalists, and roughly half of Finalists will be awarded National Merit Scholarships, earning the prestigious Merit Scholar® title.

Jersey Mike’s Subs in Johnson Creek has teamed up with Johnson Creek Schools to treat one lucky student and one lucky staff member to a free sub each month. The rule is simple: you must be present to win!

This month’s winners were Ms. Braunschweig and Paige Wittchow. General Manager Cory Kaschub joined us today to surprise them right in class with their prizes!

A big thank you to Jersey Mike’s for supporting our school and community. We appreciate your partnership!
