X had 34 in 1999, not sure about most in state
X had 26 in 2001, "
X had 22 in 2000, "
X had 27 in 2002, most in state
X had 32 in 2003, most in state
X had 28 in 2004, most in state
X had 25 in 2005, most in state
X had 23 in 2006, 2nd in state
X had 16 in 2007
So they have 16 this year - a school doesn't go down hill in one year, the most anyone had was 20 - down year for everyone in Ohio.
Sycamore had 12 in 2000
Sycamore had 31 in 2001
Sycamore had 15 in 2002
Sycamore had 25 in 2003
Sycamore had 16 in 2004
Sycamore had 22 in 2005
tired of looking for 2006
Sycamore had 20 in 2007
Before this year X had a 30 yr ave. of 24 NMSF a year, as you might notice by Sycamore (as the example I've included, though there are others), the number of national merit semifinalists a school has is not usually terribly consistent 12 - 31 - 15 - 25 - 15 - 22, so now St. X is inconsistent. I'm not worried, 16 is a lot, especially this year, other schools have dropped off worse than that and come right back the next year many times...besides, they should be congratulated, not compared to other St. X classes.
