Westminster School at Oak Mountain
One student from the Westminister School at Oak Mountain was chosen to attend the U.S. Naval Academy.
U.S. Senator Richard Shelby named the nominations from Blount, Jefferson and Shelby County students that he nominated to the United States Service Academies. Thirty-three students from the state were selected.
“I am proud to announce that these outstanding students have been selected as my nominees to the United States service academies,” Shelby said. “These young men are among the best and the brightest in Alabama as evidenced by their exemplary performance both inside and outside the classroom. It is my honor to recommend them, and I wish them the best of luck in all of their future endeavors.”
Oak Mountian High School student Russell Maraman was nominated to attend the U.S. Military Academy, and Westminster School at Oak Mountain student Thomas Lemons was nominated to attend the U.S. Naval Academy.
Spain Park High School student Morgan Whetstone was also nominated to attend the U.S. Naval Academy.
Applicants must be residents of Alabama, complete the required ACT or SAT exam. In addition they must provide letters of recommendation, a school transcript, a completed medical examination and a completed application form.
Although Shelby nominated these students, each academy will make the final admission decision.
