Jha’s leadership in the Model United Nations and Asian Culture Club are exceptional, and she is commended by the NJCSS for her hard work and passion for studying the many areas of social studies, as well as her depth of inquiry and research. As an Honors World History, AP US History I, and AP Us History II student, Jha was identified as a scholar who targets the skills that make a stellar scholar in social studies: asking questions, making presentations, analyzing documents, comparing perspectives, cause and effect relationships, and understanding cultures. Skills which prepare students for active roles in their community and college.
