Erath High School student, Nathan Touchet recognized as Carson Scholar

The Carson Scholar Fund recognizes students who excel both academically and in humanitarian accomplishments. 547 new students from across the country were named as 2022 Carson Scholars this year. In May, these remarkable scholars and their families were recognized at exclusive film premieres across the country. “Carson Scholars: Heroes Among Us,” featured live shots of scholars demonstrating how they are using their gifts and talents to make the world a better place. Touchet attended the premiere and award night in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where he was presented his medal and certificate from Dr. & Mrs. Carson. The Carson Scholars Fund, Inc. was founded in 1994 and has awarded more than 10,000 scholarships since it’s inception.
Nathan is the first Erath High School student to receive this distinguished award and he is one of only 2 students from the state of Louisiana to receive this honor this year. Nathan will be a Senior in the fall at Erath High School where he has maintained a 4.0 GPA. He is the Senior Class President, E-Board Parliamentarian, a member of the Superintendent’s Student Leadership Council, and a 3-sport athlete. He is the son of Theresa & Michael Touchet.
