National Merit Scholars by Design, Not by Chance.
Potter, Paula B.; Dawson, Julie W.
Educational Leadership, v46 n2 p54-56 Oct 1988
In 1982, the Duvall County Public Schools in Jacksonville, Florida, launched the Potential National Merit Scholars Program because the superintendent believed that students could qualify by intent, not accident. Several special programs to identify and prepare students, including the superintendent's 100 Super Scholars and summer think camps, are described. (MLH)
