Rockwall, TX (February 26, 2025) – Rockwall ISD is proud to recognize two students who have been named finalists in the National Merit Scholarship Program by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC). This distinguished honor places Angela S. Williams from Rockwall High School and Savannah B.
