Shoreline, a city of 53,000, has four high schools. Shoreline Christian School is the smallest of these. However, when it comes to standardized testing, Shoreline Christian School is big indeed. 

This year thirty three percent of the students participating in the National Merit Scholarship competition at the Semi-Finalist level in Shoreline are students at Shoreline Christian School. 

Shoreline Christian has recently been notified that two of their students, Joshua Ruiter and Kevin Kredit are National Merit Semi-Finalists. 

There are only six students in all of the Shoreline schools that qualified at this level. Joshua and Kevin will now compete in the Finalist phase of this competition. For more information about these students and the school, go to their website.
