This award is a reminder that the passion we pour into our classrooms and communities resonates beyond the school walls. This grant will allow me to bring cutting-edge technology into my classroom and expand our community outreach programs while exposing my students to a world of endless possibilities.

"I am truly grateful for being selected as a recipient of this grant. Your support will help cover the remaining costs of attending the CyberCon conference in Chicago, allowing me to take full advantage of this valuable professional development opportunity. This experience will not only enhance my knowledge but also enable me to bring new insights back to my students and colleagues. Thank you for investing in my growth and supporting educators in advancing their fields. I deeply appreciate your generosity."

"There will always be a new idea that teachers have that can make the classroom a more meaningful and exciting place for students. There is not always district funding. NSHSS has provided my classroom with funds more than once over the course of my entire teaching career. Whether it's an expanded film library or more production equipment, my students have had more opportunities to do college level work and feel like professionals because of NSHSS grants. Thank you, NSHSS! Please keep supporting teachers! Teachers, if you have an exciting idea and need support—apply!"
