Where can one find the list?[/quote]

Who are the local education reporters in DC?

This is honestly so depressing. Lauren Lumpkin is supposed to cover education for the Post but she clearly doesn't really want to, and most of her articles more nationally hooked.

I can't find any other dedicated dc education reporters at any publication.

We are so screwed. Not bc of this particular small topic, but it's a canary in a coal mine -- there is NO media paying any attention to what's going on in DC schools. So all changing curriculum etc, will happen with no scrutiny.[/quote]

Ok, i emailed the media contact for NMS and they responded really quickly! Hopefully they will offer something, and then maybe I'll send the list to.... Popville? the 51st?[/quote]

Update, this is the response:

"It appears that the Catholic Standard, The Washington Times, and the Washington Post all received releases for your area. Those outlets may not yet have published the list, or may not publish unless someone first requests that they do so."

Isn't Lauren Lumpkin supposed to be covering local education issues for the Washington Post?  You would think this at least warrants a small article (DMV semifinalists).[/quote]
I just did a search on the WaPo app and the most recent list of semifinalists that I could find was published 11 years ago. [/quote]

Maybe the poster in contact with the national merit people can suggest they send the release to Jeff of DCUM, Prince of Petworth and the DC Patch.  I'm not sure why the Catholic Standard gets the press release, when no one has ever heard of it.[/quote]

Um, Catholics have heard of it.[/quote]
