Hogarth receives national honor

The National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS) has selected Starr’s Mill High School student Meagan E. Hogarth from Fayetteville for membership. The society recognizes top scholars and invites only those students who have achieved superior academic excellence. The announcement was made by NSHSS Founder and Chairman Claes Nobel, a senior member of the family that established the Nobel Prize.

“On behalf of NSHSS, I am honored to recognize the hard work, sacrifice, and commitment that Meagan has demonstrated to achieve this exceptional level of academic excellence,” said Mr. Nobel. “Meagan is now a member of a unique community of scholars – a community that represents our very best hope for the future.”

“Our vision is to build a dynamic international organization that connects members with meaningful content, resources, and opportunities,” stated NSHSS President James Lewis. “We aim to help students like Meagan build on their academic successes and enhance the skills and desires to have a positive impact on the global community.”

Membership in NSHSS entitles qualified students to enjoy a wide variety of benefits, including scholarship opportunities, academic competitions, free events, member-only resources, publications, participation in programs offered by educational partners, online forums, personalized recognition items, and publicity honors.

Formed in 2002, The National Society for High School Scholars recognizes academic excellence at the high school level and encourages members of the organization to apply their unique talents, vision, and potential for the betterment of themselves and the world. Currently, there are more than 300,000 Society members, representing 20,000 high schools in over 120 countries. NSHSS provides scholarship opportunities for deserving young students.
