OUR COMMITMENT TO
SUPPORT EDUCATORS

"I am incredibly honored to receive this NSHSS grant and truly grateful for its support to my students and UI. This opportunity will allow members of our DECA chapter to travel and compete at the DECA International Conference, giving them invaluable experiences that will enhance their leadership, business skills, and future careers. Thank you, NSHSS, for investing in educators and students—your support makes a lasting impact!"

"I really appreciate being awarded this grant for my garden club! I have so many enthusiastic students who really love working in the garden this year - and our projects always cost money to complete! This money is really going to help set us up for successful winter gardening, as we are using it to construct cold frames for the exisiting beds!"

"Thank you so much for this generous grant, which affirms the time and heart I invest in striving to make my classes meaningful."

"NSHSS provides numerous opportunities for students and educators to receive the resources they need to implement innovative teaching in their classroom."

"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."

"I am very appreciative of NHSS! My first experience with the group was as a high school student but was reintroduced when a student nominated me for Educator of Distinction in my 8th year of teaching. I have since applied for grants and have received much-needed funding for my dance classes. NHSS has been a wonderful resource for me as an educator."

"Mr. Ukaegbu began his teaching career in the United States, specifically in California, but later transferred to Maryland where he landed at Duval High School, Prince George's County Public School. Though he has taught various subjects, his expertise lies in Mathematics and Physics. He possesses a deep understanding of Math concepts and delivers them with enthusiasm."

"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!"

"Receiving the NSHSS STEAM Educator Grant is an incredible honor and a meaningful investment in my students. For more than 20 years, our Science Expo has allowed high school students to become teachers, leaders, and role models while inspiring younger students through hands-on science. This grant will help remove financial barriers and provide materials so that more students can participate, create, and share their ideas. I am deeply grateful to NSHSS for supporting educators and believing in the potential of our students. This recognition reminds my students that their ideas, leadership, and hard work matter. Thank you for helping us empower the next generation of scholars to be curious, take risks, serve their communities, and recognize that they have the ability to make a positive impact on the world."
