Lakeland Union High School Senior Cameron Schmidt Named 2027 National Merit® Scholarship Semifinalist
Lakeland Union High School is proud to announce that senior Cameron Schmidt has been named a Semifinalist in the 2027 National Merit® Scholarship Program.
Cameron represents less than 1% of U.S. high school seniors and was selected from a pool of over 1.2 million entrants nationwide based upon his outstanding performance on the 2025 PSAT/NMSQT®. This prestigious recognition highlights Cameron’s exceptional academic dedication and continues Lakeland Union High School’s tradition of academic excellence.
“This milestone is a testament to Cameron’s hard work, the collective dedication of our educational team, and the support of his family and friends. We are incredibly proud of Cameron and are grateful for this well-deserved national recognition.”
As a semifinalist, Cameron now has the opportunity to continue in the competition for roughly 7,000 National Merit Scholarships totaling nearly $26 million. The next step for Cameron is to complete the detailed scholarship application and outline his academic records, extracurricular activities, leadership accomplishments, essays, and endorsing test scores.
National Merit Scholarship winners for 2027 will be announced in the spring.

Check out a new course at LUHS - Introduction to Education and Teaching!
In this course, students get to explore what it’s really like to be an educator, learn about different educational philosophies, and gain hands-on experience through fieldwork at local schools.
We have Lakeland students completing their fieldwork at AV-W, LdF, MHLT, North Lakeland, and STAR this fall.
Special thanks to Mrs. Katie Goral for all of her work to get this course up and running for our students!
Learn. Experience. Explore. Inspire.
Lakeland Students! We want to see you in the weight room!

At the Class of 1986 reunion, alumni took a walk down memory lane with a tour of Lakeland Union High School this past weekend. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect, reminisce, and see how LUHS has grown while celebrating the traditions that continue to make our school special.
Thank you to the Class of 1986 for visiting; we loved welcoming you back home!
