DANVERS — The North Shore Chamber of Commerce presented its 2026 Honor Scholars Recognition Dinner on Thursday, May 14, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the DoubleTree Hilton in Danvers.
The North Shore Chamber’s Honor Scholars Recognition Dinner celebrates the top 3 percent of students in the graduating classes of public and private high schools on the North Shore. This year, just over 200 graduates from more than 30 high schools earned this special recognition.
This longstanding tradition is celebrating its 58th year. It began in 1968 when the honorees were only Beverly High students, because the Chamber served only the city of Beverly. Today, with the growth of the Chamber, the event has grown to encompass the entire North Shore.
Tim Collins, Founder of EBSCO Publishing and ex-CEO of EBSCO Information Services, was the event’s keynote speaker.
We were also thrilled to be joined by Todd Angilly, official singer of the National Anthem for the Boston Bruins, who performed the Anthem prior to the program.
All Honor Scholars were presented with certificates and recognized by name on stage.
Thank you to the Premier Sponsor — EBSCO Information Services. Platinum Sponsors included Wellpoint, Beth Israel Lahey Health/Beverly Hospital and Addison Gilbert Hospital, Institution for Savings, Rockland Trust, Windover and Eastern Bank. The Chamber is grateful to numerous businesses who supported the event at the Gold, Silver and Bronze Sponsor levels.

The Chamber congratulates the 340 Honor Scholars for 2025 and thanks all family and friends for joining us to celebrate these seniors who are graduating with top honors.
Highlights of the event included Todd Angilly, official Anthem singer for the Boston Bruins, kicking off the evening by performing the National Anthem, followed by keynote speaker, Jake Thibeault – a remarkable young man whose story is a testament to resilience, determination, and purpose. Jake delivered a passionate message, born out of his journey through a paralyzing hockey injury during his senior year of high school. He inspired the crowd with his story of perseverance and no-quit attitude. Following dinner, all Honor Scholars were recognized on stage.
