OUR COMMITMENT TO
SUPPORT EDUCATORS

"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 the opportunity for me to highlight my students and my career. Helping students find their passion and grow as individuals is made easier with the financial support offered through organizations like NSHSS. I appreciate the hard work and thoughtful process laid out by the Scholarship and Grants committee."

"Thank you for this generous grant. Our district is suffering a major budget crisis and these funds will help my students not feel the brunt of this. Our class can still continue our amazing activities because of this grant!"

"Receiving this grant from NSHSS is a great honor that directly supports my mission to bring science to life for my students. After 26 years in the classroom, I am convinced that when we lead with wonder—using phenomena-based storylines to anchor our learning—students don't just learn biology; they become scientists. This support allows me to continue breaking down barriers to engagement and academic success in AP Biology. Curiosity is the spark that ignites change. Thank you, NSHSS, for investing in that spark and empowering the next generation of scholars to explore, question, and impact the world."

"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."

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

"I am truly grateful for the support and opportunities provided by NSHSS. As an educator and counselor, NSHSS has allowed me to serve students while demonstrating my passion for excellence and achievement. NSHSS has been instrumental in fostering a culture of academic excellence and personal growth among students, empowering them to reach their full potential and make a positive impact in their communities and beyond. The organization's dedication to recognizing and supporting me is truly commendable, and I am honored to be a part of this organization. Receiving the grant from NSHSS has been a tremendous honor and a testament to the organization's commitment to supporting educators. This grant not only provides financial support but also serves as a reaffirmation of the importance of education and the value of investing in educators."

"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."
