Lucia Beeton, a senior at Pierson High School in Sag Harbor, has earned recognition as a "commended student" in the 2021 National Merit Scholarship Program. This honor means she placed among the top 50,000 scorers on the PSAT in her junior year, out of 1.5 million total test-takers.
Lucy, as family and friends call her, is an International Baccalaureate diploma candidate at Pierson. She is planning to pursue a college degree in animal science and possibly Spanish. She also plays in the school's chamber orchestra and is an accomplished equestrian.
