What an honor - Eastlake High School senior awarded National Honor Society scholarship

The National Honor Society (NHS) announced that Advaith Shyam, a high school senior at Eastlake High School and member of NHS, has been selected as an NHS Scholarship semifinalist. As a national semifinalist, Shyam will receive a scholarship award of $3,200. Recipients are selected based on their demonstrated work to support the four pillars of NHS: scholarship, service, leadership and character.

Since 1946, more than $30 million in scholarships have been awarded by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) to outstanding NHS senior members to support college access and student success. The NASSP is the parent organization of NHS.

In the 100+ years since NHS was founded in 1921, members have been making a difference in their schools and communities, and the NHS Scholarship is NASSP’s way of recognizing the most exceptional of these student leaders.
