Congratulations to the Class of 2024 Top 10!

As they move on to their collegiate careers, these Rockets will be challenging themselves in fields like engineering, biology, mathematics, media production, architecture, and information technology.

"These 10 students are a testament to the type of students roaming the halls of McNicholas every day, growing in Full Stature and finding their brilliance," Principal Bob Noll said. "Best of luck to these students and all our senior scholarship earners. Your futures are bright!"

Some of life's greatest lessons cannot be found in a textbook. They are discovered standing beneath the ancient arches of the Colosseum, gazing up at masterpieces in Vatican City, or watching the sun set along the Seine River.
