The NHA CollegeBound™ Scholarship

The NHA difference is about preparing students for a lifetime of success. For elementary students, college opportunity means building a solid foundation in the important formative years, creating unlimited potential for the years ahead. For middle school students, college opportunity means making sure they are prepared to excel in high school. This sets students up for their post-secondary education. Since NHA's commitment extends beyond the 8th grade, the NHA CollegeBound™ Scholarship (CBS) was established to provide four of our eighth-grade students with a one-time $5,000 college scholarship.

Read on to learn how you can take advantage of this amazing opportunity.
