RECOGNIZING THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF OUTSTANDING EDUCATORS

"Thank you so much for providing funds to support our second year of this important trip. We are very grateful."

I would like to thank the National Society of High School Scholars grant committee for selecting me for this award. Everything I do, I do it for my students. There are days I feel like I am not getting it right, but when I get a message from a past student saying how what I taught them they are able to use it on their current job or in their college classes, I know I am in the right place. God has truly given me a gift to inspire the next generation and I will continue to do so until I can't anymore!

"Thank you, NSHSS, for support public school students and our Habitat for Humanity Club! I believe that the service-learning trips that our club takes to the Mississippi Delta provide one of our school's best educational experiences for students. Testimonials from the kids are always overwhelmingly positive and often very moving. These grants make a big difference!"

"Being in the education field, while rewarding, is also very challenging. I love working with children and families and this grant affords me the opportunity to excel in the field and tackle some of the most challenging situations. I am so grateful to receive this! Thank you so much to NSHSS for awarding me this grant! This is amazing!"

"I am truly thankful for this wonderful blessing that was bestowed upon me in the form of a grant. NSHSS has been a truly awesome program that I am proud to be a part of, which is why I try to share it with my students as a teacher, advisor, and coach. The available opportunities are truly top-notch. Thank you."

"Dear NSHSS, I want to thank you for providing this grant to help my students in the BSU and ASU so they may continue their work in cultivating a sense of belonging for students of all identities at our school. It warms my heart to know that NSHSS truly sees the value in investing in our youth. Please keep making dreams come true and never cease pouring into our greatest natural resource, our youth!"

"I am truly thankful for this wonderful blessing that was bestowed upon me and my cross-country team for this monetary gift in the form of a grant. NSHSS has been a truly awesome program to be a part of that I try to share with my students as a teacher, advisor, and coach. The opportunities that are available are truly top-notch. Thank you."

"After teaching for as long as I have, I never thought about applying for grants. I thought the process was way too time consuming and didn't think it would be worth the time. I was VERY wrong. The process was very easy as they explicitly tell you what they were looking for in the application and was worth the time. This was the first time I actually applied for a grant and was very fortunate to be awarded one!!! This could be you!"

"I am grateful to NSHSS for awarding me this grant. With their support, I will be now be able to provide a better cross-cultural learning experience to students in my French classes. Without the support of NSHSS, I would not be able to make mastering a second language as authentic and meaningful for students as I now will. Thank you, NSHSS, for your generosity and support of teaching and learning."
