Stay Connected to NTHS – Use Personal Emails!
|
|
|
When you joined NTHS, you were required to provide an email address—but if you used a school-issued email, you might run into problems down the road. Many school districts block external messages, which could prevent you from receiving important scholarship notifications. Even more concerning, school emails are often deactivated after graduation, making it difficult to log into your NTHS portal without assistance.
To avoid these issues, we strongly recommend updating your NTHS account with a personal email address. This simple step ensures that you’ll continue to access your benefits, scholarships, and alumni opportunities long after high school.
Take action today! Log in to your NTHS account and update your email to a personal one before graduation to stay connected to all that NTHS has to offer.

March Honor Roll: Adam Pearish
|
|
|
|
|
Adam Pearish may be fairly new to Career and Technical Education (CTE), but he has jumped in with both feet to improve outcomes for the 12 school districts served by Area 31 Career Center in Indianapolis, where he works as a counselor.
“Career and Technical Education is important to me because it provides students with the tools they need to be successful in life,” says Adam. “Whether they enroll in a post-secondary institution, secure employment in the workforce, or enlist in the Armed Forces, the skills they learn in their CTE program translate far beyond the classroom.”
|
|
|
Since becoming the NTHS advisor at Area 31 last year, Adam has doubled the size of their chapter. By sharing the benefits of NTHS, he saw an enthusiastic response from students eager to be part of the organization. He notes that students enjoy being recognized for their hard work and value the sense of belonging NTHS brings to campus.
