St. Michael Catholic High School Junior Andrew Kiernan Earns Perfect Score on ACT

FAIRHOPE, AL — St. Michael Catholic High School is proud to announce that junior Andrew Kiernan achieved a perfect composite score of 36 on the ACT during the in-school testing session this March. Andrew’s outstanding performance places him among an elite group of students nationwide.
In 2024, only approximately 0.3% of ACT test-takers nationwide earned a perfect score, meaning fewer than 4,000 students out of over 1.3 million achieved this distinction. In March 2025, according to Quad Education, around 5,579 students out of over 1.6 million test-takers reached this benchmark, representing just 0.33% of all examinees. The national average ACT score currently stands at 19.9, further highlighting the exceptional nature of Andrew’s accomplishment.
“We are incredibly proud of Andrew and his hard work,” said Mrs. Dena Caldwell, College Counselor at St. Michael Catholic High School. “A perfect ACT score is a rare and remarkable achievement that speaks not only to his academic ability but also to his focus, perseverance, and drive. We are excited to see what the future holds for him.”
St. Michael Catholic High School—where education meets formation and students are Formed to Fly—is proud to celebrate Andrew’s success alongside the entire school community. His achievement reflects the dedication of our students, the commitment of our teachers, and the supportive environment cultivated at St. Michael.

St. Michael Senior is Winner of Prestigious Edgar Welden Scholarship

St. Michael Catholic High School is proud to announce that senior Cooper Kurth has been named the male recipient of the prestigious W. Edgar Welden Scholarship, a $5,000 award presented through the Bryant-Jordan Student-Athlete Program. In addition to this statewide honor, Cooper was also recognized as a 4A Regional Achievement Award winner, earning a $3,000 scholarship.
The Bryant-Jordan Foundation, in partnership with the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame and the Alabama High School Athletic Association, annually honors student-athletes who exemplify excellence in athletics, academics, and character. Cooper is the second consecutive student from St. Michael to earn the W. Edgar Welden Scholarship and the 4A Regional Achievement Award winner; last year, they were awarded to Samir Crooker—marking a tremendous achievement for the growing Catholic high school.
Cooper will apply his scholarship funds toward his tuition at Auburn University, where he plans to enroll this fall. His success story is particularly inspiring. A childhood cancer survivor, Cooper was diagnosed with leukemia in kindergarten. While undergoing treatment, he received academic support from his teachers and community at Christ the King Catholic School in Daphne. He returned to campus part time in third grade, full time in fourth, with his original class and set his sights on one day becoming a high school athlete—a dream he has since fulfilled with remarkable dedication.
During his time at St. Michael, Cooper has been a standout contributor to both the varsity football and basketball teams.
“Cooper is the kind of player every coach wants—tough, dependable, and selfless,” said Head Football Coach Phillip Rivers. “He’s overcome adversity with grace and has led our team through his quiet strength and work ethic. I’m incredibly proud of him.”
Head Basketball Coach Daniel Nolan added, “Cooper is a true competitor and teammate. His determination to grow as a player and leader has been inspiring to watch. This recognition is well-deserved.”
Principal Dr. Andrea Williamson praised Cooper’s achievement:
“We are beyond proud of Cooper—his academic excellence, athletic discipline, and strength of character are a testament to who he is. To have St. Michael students receive this prestigious scholarship two years in a row is a powerful testament to the caliber of young men and women we are forming here.”
