STUDENTS

HONOR JUNIORS

Every year, the Cleveland Technical Societies Council invites teachers at high schools from throughout Northeast Ohio to nominate one high school junior as the outstanding STEM student in their school.

These students are designated Honor Juniors. Due to Covid restrictions there will be no spring banquet for the Honor Juniors to attend. However, the CTSC is planning a special program to recognize this year's Honor Juniors.

The following year, these Honor Juniors are eligible to apply for a CTSC scholarship.

SCHOLARSHIPS

Every year the CTSC awards $1,000 merit-based scholarships to the top STEM students from throughout Northeast Ohio. Applicants for these scholarships have been selected by their teachers as the best and brightest of their classes.

An independent committee of CTSC representatives evaluates the scholarship applications and selects recipients. All recipients are invited to attend that year’s Scholarship and Achievement Awards banquet to accept their awards.

Only CTSC Honor Juniors are eligible to apply for these scholarships. Honor Juniors are notified in late January of their senior years with application information.
