RECOGNIZING THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF OUTSTANDING EDUCATORS

"Receiving the NSHSS grant is truly appreciated and meaningful. This support allows us to better serve our students by expanding access to leadership, academic, and career-readiness opportunities. I am grateful to NSHSS for investing in educators and students and for recognizing the impact of this work on the next generation."

"I love the networking opportunities. Being a member of NSHSS has impacted my ability to fund industry-level chemistry investigations to my students. Without NSHSS, these rigorous investigations into chemistry would not be possible."

"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!"

"Working with NSHSS has empowered me to be a creative and compassionate teacher. As an educator, it can feel like I'm always trying to perform an infinite number of miracles with a finite supply of loaves and fishes. The grant I received this year from NSHSS has quickly been converted into a garden for our environmental science elective targeted towards kids with learning disabilities. For this and so much more, I would like to give a heartfelt thanks to the people and organizations that made this possible. Let's keep the miracles flowing!"

'Thank you for this opportunity to use the grant funds to continue the pursuit of my EdD in Educational Policy and Organizational Leadership. This degree is deepening my understanding of myself as an educator and how I can directly impact change in the communities I serve."

"We are so thankful for your kindness and support. We have a Science Fair coming up in February, and finding sponsors has been a difficult one. Non-traditional students have limited resources in many communities, and we want to equal the playing field. No child should be left behind, meaning public school and non-traditional students. Thank you!"

"I would like to thank NSHSS for the generous grant that will enable me to purchase lab materials for my students. This support is invaluable, as it allows me to transform theoretical concepts into hands-on, inquiry investigations. With these new resources, my students will have the opportunity to explore, experiment and engage with STEM in a way that makes learning both dynamic and meaningful. Your contribution will not only enhances their classroom experiences but also empower them to develop essential skills, where they think and act like true scientists. Thank you for investing in their future and for helping me create an environment where curiosity and discovery thrive. I am excited about the significant impact this will have on their educational journey and future endeavors."

"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."

"Receiving this grant from NSHSS is a profound honor. It is incredibly validating to be part of an organization that so clearly values the hard work educators put in every day. This support doesn't just benefit me because it directly impacts my students by providing resources that would otherwise be out of reach. I am grateful to NSHSS for their commitment to excellence in education and for empowering teachers to dream bigger for their classrooms."
