National
Honor Society
Selection to NHS is a privilege, not a right. Students do not apply for
membership in the National Honor Society; instead, they provide information
to be used by the local selection committee to support their candidacy
for membership. Membership is granted only to those students selected
by the Faculty Council in each school. This is not an election, nor is
membership automatically conveyed simply because a student has achieved
a specific level of academic performance.
The Selection Process:
The chapter advisor reviews student academic records to determine those
students who are scholastically eligible for membership (i.e. those
students with a 3.00 or higher cumulative G.P.A.).
Students who are eligible scholastically will be notified and informed
that for further consideration for selection they must complete the
Student Activity Information Form, outlining their accomplishments in
the areas of Service and Leadership.
Next all faculty and staff will be invited to evaluate the candidates
in the areas of Character, Service and Leadership and pass those evaluations
to the chapter advisor.
The actual selections will be made by five faculty members appointed
by the High School principal as members of the Faculty Council.
The Faculty Council will review the Student Activity Information Form
along with the faculty and staff evaluations and any other verifiable
information about each candidate - Leadership, Service & Character of
all candidates will be reviewed carefully. Candidates receiving a majority
vote by the Faculty Council will be inducted into the chapter.
Selected candidates and their parent(s) will be informed in writing
of their acceptance and the date and time of the induction ceremony.
Students who are not selected will be informed in writing by the chapter
advisor and invited to discuss the areas of growth they should work
on during the following year.
