OUR COMMITMENT TO
SUPPORT EDUCATORS

"I am deeply grateful for the the NSHSS grant awarded to my class. This funding will make a significant impact, providing my students with enhanced learning opportunities and resources that will foster their growth and engagement. Your support empowers me to create a more dynamic and inspiring learning environment, and for that, I am truly thankful."

"I can't wait to share this wonderful news with the amazing student leaders of our school's Model United Nations (MUN)! This NSHSS grant will enable our group to attend more conferences. My students are enthusiastic and driven. They are also not your typical MUN club. My students will be the first in their families to attend college. Often, our students are the only African American or Latinx students at the conferences we attend. I support MUN because it fosters diplomacy, and an understanding of international issues, and encourages young people to become global citizens. On a personal note, attending MUN conferences also gives my students the space to meet and interact with academically motivated young people, something of a precursor to the students they will encounter in college."

"I am deeply honored to have received this grant, which not only supports my students' artistic journey but also reinforces my commitment to nurturing the next generation of creative minds. Art has the unique power to inspire, heal, and connect us, and with this grant, I am excited to create new opportunities for my students to explore their voices and visions. To all the aspiring scholars and artists out there: your passion and dedication are the seeds of change. Keep pushing boundaries, exploring new ideas, and believing in the impact of your work. Together, we can transform our communities and the world through the beauty of art. Thank you for believing in the power of creativity!"

"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."

"NSHSS is incredible. They are at the forefront of supporting schools, students, and educators. Having a group that truly cares about equity and access for students to achieve is praiseworthy in a world where people don't always see the value in education."

"Receiving the NSHSS School Supplies Grant means so much to me, both personally and professionally. As a teacher, I often find myself wanting to do more for my students than my resources allow, so this support truly makes a difference in what I can provide in my classroom each day. My students are curious, hardworking, and full of potential, and this grant allows me to give them more opportunities to explore, question, and connect their learning to the real world—especially in STEM. It also reassures me that the work we do as educators is seen and valued, which is incredibly meaningful. To other educators, I would encourage you to keep pursuing opportunities like this. Even small additions to your classroom can have a big impact on your students. And to students, know that there are people who believe in you and want to invest in your future—keep pushing yourself and stay open to new possibilities. I am truly grateful to NSHSS for this opportunity and for supporting teachers in a way that directly impacts students. This grant will not only provide resources but also inspiration and motivation for my classroom."

"I am eternally blessed to have received this grant. I am excited at the prospect of providing my students with new resources that can pique their interest and encourage them to pursue a higher level of learning."

"I am so thankful to have been awarded the NSHSS Dual Enrollment Educator Grant. This grant will help pay for my teacher licensing program so that I can continue doing the work that I love."

"I am deeply honored and grateful to have been selected for the $500 School Supplies Grant. This award greatly boosts my efforts to foster a love for English and Science fields. Your recognition and support affirm the importance of our work in education and inspire me to continue pushing boundaries in learning. The grant will greatly enhance my ability to implement innovative projects and provide valuable resources for my classroom. I am excited to channel this funding into initiatives that will engage and inspire the next generation of innovators. Thank you for believing in my work's impact and investing in the future of education. Your generosity will make a significant difference in my students’ learning experiences. I look forward to sharing the positive outcomes and successes that arise from this grant. Once again, thank you for your support and for making this opportunity possible."
