NTHS has meant so much to me. It has made me realize just how much of a difference a small community can make. I love getting to be a part of UPchieve and being able to maintain educational equity. As the founding president of our NTHS chapter, starting this community from the ground up taught me the true meaning of initiative, collaboration, and shared purpose. That same passion for empowering others is what draws me to UPchieve. This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in community service!

Founding an NTHS chapter, recruiting members, going to events, making flyers, and managing documentation and communication is some of the most realistic and enriching leadership experiences ever.

Chapter President, Class of 2029 - Houston Homework HelperZ: A Chapter of NTHS

NTHS has been an amazing way for me to guide others in serving our wider community to help students across the nation prepare and succeed in their academics and in college preparation. I am so blessed I was allowed to become a President alongside my friend and I think that this is an experience nobody will forget as we all help every single student be the best versiones of themselves possible!

Chapter President, Class of 2029 - Alpharetta High School NTHS

Tutoring has been a really rewarding experience for me. The best part has been seeing a student finally understand something they once struggled with and knowing that I played a small part in that moment. It’s taught me that everyone learns differently, and sometimes all someone needs is a little extra patience and encouragement. :D
