What is the National Honor Society?

The National Honor Society (NHS) is an international student organization that elevates a school’s commitment to the values of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These four pillars have been associated with membership in the organization since its inception in 1921 by the National Association of Secondary School Principals in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service. NHS members are involved in school activities and fundraisers that foster school spirit.

Eligible students in grade 10 – 12 will receive an invitation to apply to the NHS for this school year on Thursday August 15, 2024. The application period will end on Thursday August 29, 2024. Applications will then be reviewed by the faculty council with successful members announced during the NHS Tapping in Chapel on Thursday September 12, 2024.  The Induction Ceremony will follow in the MPH on Tuesday September 17, 2024 at 6:30pm.
