NSHSS at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
The National Society of High School Scholars is teaming up with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and ALSAC to bring a group of our members to the St. Jude campus in Memphis, Tennessee, for a member event designed specifically to explore all aspects of careers in healthcare.
At 211 degrees, water is hot. At 212 degrees, it boils, and with boiling water comes steam, and with steam, you can power a train. One extra degree makes all the difference! Since its inception, ALSAC SJCRH has always embraced the extra degree, going above and beyond with the patient family experience, medical research, sharing information, volunteer/donor experience, and employee experience.
Participating members will have an opportunity to visit the St. Jude campus, learn about St. Jude's history, leadership, career paths at ALSAC SJCRH, and the extra effort it takes to be truly successful. Students will hear from St. Jude Faculty, ALSAC Fundraising Staff, and the ALSAC Global team. They will enjoy a walking tour of the hospital campus, participate in a team event and have the opportunity to gain insights on career paths and the research hospital's service model. At the end of the event, all NSHSS Members will be recognized on stage during the Member Recognition Ceremony and receive an honor medallion for academic excellence!
