NHS Requirements PDF


NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY MEMBERSHIP:

NHS applications are issued to qualifying juniors and seniors after GPAs through the end of the 1st semester have been compiled by the registrar - usually in February. If the student has a qualifying 3.75 GPA, he/she will be invited to apply for membership.

An application form with documentation of volunteer service hours (8 or more hours since June 1 of the previous year, in or outside of school) must be completed and submitted by the deadline. Each applicant will then be rated on leadership and character by the seven teachers the student chooses as evaluators and must receive acceptable scores. The entire faculty also has the opportunity to provide feedback on the applicants and approve their admittance.

Once all these requirements have been met successfully, the applicant is invited to join NHS and will be inducted into the organization.
