Bridgeland HS Senior Selected as 2022 NASSP Ambassador

September 08 2022

Bridgeland High School senior Anish Basappa was selected to serve as one of nine 2022 National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) ambassadors.

Basappa, who is the only student ambassador from Texas to be selected for the program, is helping the organization by serving on the Student and School Leader Survey Team. As part of the team, Basappa worked in collaboration with experts from an independent research firm, principals and his fellow ambassadors to help formulate survey questions about different topics including student experience, mental health and wellness, school safety, student equity and the impact of COVID-19 on schools before sending the survey to school leaders and students across the country.

After receiving the survey results, Basappa helped sift through the data. The survey was conducted to help school leaders identify student needs and opinions.

“Although the pandemic has been hard for all of us, some positive innovations, like virtual classes and more ways to connect with peers online, have actually come out of it,” Basappa said. “We have an incredible opportunity to reimagine how schools can work best for both students and educators.”

NASSP is the leading organization of middle and high school principals, along with other school leaders across the United States. NASSP seeks to transform education through school leadership, recognizing that the fulfillment of each student’s potential relies on great leaders in every school committed to the success of each student.
