Scholarship Recipients
Announced
NSHSS is proud to honor the academic strength and community leadership of our
many scholarship recipients. At our annual Scholar's Day
celebration, Mr. Nobel said of our awardees, "What these
students are doing in their schools and in their hometowns is
truly admirable, and each of them highlights the hope and
confidence we all have in our young people." We are
expanding our scholarship program each year, and are excited
to exceed a cumulative $100,000 in member scholarships in 2005.
Congratulations to our 2005 scholarship recipients.
