Membership
National Honor Society focuses on providing services within our community. Our members participate in after-school programs and support a number of charities, schools, and organizations throughout the region. Although being part of NHS is an honor, it is also a commitment. It is required that members attend the monthly meetings, fulfill service requirements, maintain a high grade point average, uphold the chapter bylaws, and positively represent National Honor Society at sponsored activities.
Who Can Apply?
Each February, students in grades 10 and 11 who have a cumulative GPA of 3.500 or higher are contacted and invited to apply for membership.
