Reach for the Stars

The Nevada State Education Association (NSEA), in partnership with elected leaders and community members, is pleased to offer two scholarships to those applicants who are selected.  The NSEA supports students pursuing a degree in education and highly encourages these students to apply.   However, the NSEA supports all education, so the application process is not limited to education students.

To apply for NSEA’s Loretta Harper Reach for the Stars scholarship, candidates must be a graduating senior or must have previously graduated from a Nevada public high school.  Candidates must be enrolled or enrolling in a Nevada accredited:

• Community college
• 4-year university
• Career technology institution

To apply, view the Application materials online. Please feel free to duplicate the printed application or forward the link to complete the online application to all qualified candidates. Completed applications are due in the NSEA office no later than the close of business on April 15, 2026.

NSEA is excited to reach out to our state in a positive effort to increase the skills and talents of our present and future workforce.  The $2,000 scholarships are awarded annually.  If you have any further questions, please contact Lisa Toth, at (702) 733-7330.
