Borger High School is proud to announce that Lars Nelson is one of approximately 16,000 Semifinalists in the 65th annual National Merit Scholarship Program (NMSC). These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,600 National Merit Scholarships worth more than $31 million that will be offered next spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, Semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. Over 90 percent of the Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and about half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title. NMSC, a not-for-profit organization that operates without government assistance, was established in 1955 specifically to conduct the annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Scholarships are underwritten by NMSC with its own funds and by approximately 400 business organizations and higher education institutions that share NMSC’s goals of honoring the nation’s scholastic champions and encouraging the pursuit of academic excellence.
Over 1.5 million juniors in about 21,000 high schools entered the 2020 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2018 PSAT which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of Semifinalists, representing less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state. The number of Semi-finalists in a state is proportional to the state’s percentage of the national total of graduating seniors. To become a Finalist, the Semifinalist and a high school official must submit a detailed scholarship application, in which they provide information about the Semifinalist’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and awards received. A Semifinalist must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, write an essay, and earn SAT or ACT scores that confirm the student’s earlier performance on the qualifying test. From the approximately 16,000 Semifinalists, about 15,000 are expected to advance to the Finalist level, and in February they will be notified of this designation. All National Merit Scholarship winners will be selected from this group of Finalists. Merit Scholar designees are selected based on their skills, accomplishments, and potential for success in rigorous college studies, without regard to gender, race, ethnic origin, or religious preference. Three types of National Merit Scholarships will be offered in the spring of 2020. Every Finalist will compete for one of 2,500 National Merit $2500 Scholarships that will be awarded on a state representational basis. About 1,000 corporate-sponsored Merit Scholarship awards will be provided by approximately 220 corporations and business organizations for Finalists who meet their specified criteria, such as children of the grantor’s employees or residents of communities where sponsor plants or offices are located. In addition, about 180 colleges and universities are expected to finance some 4,100 college-sponsored Merit Scholarship awards for Finalists who will attend the sponsor institution. National Merit Scholarship winners of 2020 will be announced in four nationwide news releases beginning and concluding in July. These scholarship recipients will join more than 345,000 other distinguished young people who have earned the Merit Scholar title.

The Velma Freeman Gillespie and Zelma Freeman Root Foundation was established in 1995 by Mrs. Gillespie’s family to honor a deserving teacher at the end of each school year. Velma Freeman Gillespie and Zelma Freeman Root were twin sisters who both taught in the Borger ISD system for over twenty-five years each. Mrs. Root came to Borger in 1944. Mrs. Gillespie came to visit her from Arkansas in 1946 and never went back. Mrs. Gillespie taught in Borger Junior High School for 25 years. Mrs. Root taught at Borger High School for 26 years. Both retired in 1971. After retiring from BISD, Zelma Root taught at Frank Phillips Junior College for five years. Mrs. Gillespie had two sons, Dr. Hamp Gillespie and Dr. Mike Gillespie, who both graduated from Borger Independent School District. After Velma Gillespie passed away in October 1994, her sons wanted to honor their mother and aunt by establishing the foundation. The award is given to a deserving teacher in the academic field who possesses the following: A concern for students and the capability to inspire them
The ability and willingness to work cooperatively with colleagues
A drive to initiate activities that improve instruction for students
An ability to work effectively with different groups in the community
The desire to stay informed of current educational theories and practices
An ability and willingness to make meaningful contributions to education
Examples of innovations started in the nominees’ classrooms.
The 2021-22 campus nominees included Kathryn Sims from Borger High School, Angelica Garay from Paul Belton Elementary, Charissa Drake from Gateway Elementary, Katie Rodriguez from Crockett Elementary, Lauren Hays from Borger Intermediate, and April Couch from Borger Middle School. This year the decision was very hard for the committee. They could not choose one winner so the award was presented to two teachers. The Root-Gillespie award went to Charissa Drake and Lauren Hays. The nomination form for Mrs. Drake described her as ever-changing, charismatic, effective, influential, energizing, and transformative! Also said of Mrs. Drake, “Have you ever crawled into an igloo to read a book? Crept on all fours into a dark bat cave for a day of learning by flashlight and glow sticks? Entered a pizza parlor to be inspired to write? Mrs. Drake’s classes have! She has a never give up attitude and cheers on her students to do the same!” Mrs. Hays is described as an energetic, fun-loving asset to her campus and district. The nomination form also stated, “A strength of Lauren’s philosophy of teaching is that she does not only teach students for one year, but she cares for and plays a role in their lives after they leave her classroom and campus. She has served two campuses, Gateway, and BIS. It has been fun to watch her be able to teach all her former students again at a different stage of their lives. Her classroom is a safe place for students to be themselves and have a positive relationship with peers and teachers, while effectively interacting with literature.” Congratulations to all the candidates! Thank you for your service!
