Alumni Network

The continuation and success of our programs rests on the efforts of our alumni volunteers. Alumni are needed for support in many program areas: judging, speakers, program “guests” to encourage program participation, registration, advisory boards, and spreading the good word!

If you've benefited from participating in an Academy program as a student, we've got some great opportunities for you to give back and help us help those youth who follow in your footsteps. Give us a call or drop us and email and we'll find the perfect opportunity for you!

To get involved please contact us at or by phone at (603) 228-4530.

social networking

Support the Academy's efforts by sharing links to our web site and the Academy Facebook and JSHS Facebook pages with friends in your social network. Help us spread the word!

From our alumni

In the 30-plus years we've been fueling the spark of genius in America's youth and connecting the most promising with great careers in the vital STEM-related fields, we've enjoyed wonderful successes. Read about some of them on our SUCCESSES page.

Kevin reports (January 2011): “I am currently a sophomore, with junior standing, at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I am a double major with my primary major as Zoology and pre-med focus, and my secondary major as Spanish. I am also pursuing a minor in Latin American Studies. In terms of research, I am part of the Miami University Undergraduate Research and Mentoring (URM) program. I also have just been accepted into a summer internship program run by Miami University. I spent some time in the Air Force ROTC program which destracted me from research for a little; I soon realized I missed research.”

Keith reports (January 2011): “I am now a 2nd year studying astrophysics, Math minor and African Studies minor at Ohio University Honors Tutorial College. I have been very busy over the past 6-8 months. During the summer, I was awarded a research position at the National Optical Astronomy Observatory in Tucson, AZ as a freshman so I worked there all summer. I came home in September for 2 days and then I left for Ghana. I was actually teaching middle school mathematics and science in Ghana. I returned to the US in late December and now I am back at Ohio University. Most recently I have a job offer from Caltech for the summer working on finding exoplanets. So it has been an exciting couple of years.” (Photo Caption: Keith at the observatory out in Kitt Peak, AZ. He filling the CCD (camera) on the back of the telescope with liquid nitrogen.)
