9 Lindbergh High School seniors earn perfect ACT score

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. – Lindbergh High School is celebrating nine seniors for achieving perfect scores on the ACT.

School administrators presented each student with a “36” baseball jersey and a certificate of recognition for their accomplishment.

The ACT is broken into four parts: English, math, reading, and science reasoning. Each section is scored on its own scale of 1 to 36. A student’s overall test score is the average of those parts. The ACT is accepted by all major colleges and universities.

On average, less than one-tenth of one percent of all students who take the ACT earns a perfect score.

Approximately 0.22% of the graduating class of 2024 who took the ACT earned a perfect composite score.

“This is the highest number I can recall in a single graduating class,” LHS Principal Dr. Eric Cochran said. “It is a testament to the hard work of our students, the dedication and craft of our teachers, and the high level of expectations set by our parent community. We are so proud of each of these students.”

The nine students are as follows: Isaac Charney, Vihaan Choudhary, Holly Davis, Dylan Ellsworth, William Lin, Andrew Manaj, Samuel Ourth, Rachel Schrage, and Blake Sellers.
