2024-2025 Requirements and Dates
Fall Semester
Juniors and any new seniors admitted : 6 hours due December 13
Returning Seniors: 8 hours due December 13
Fall hours can consist of any volunteer activities completed over the summer or through clubs like NCL or YMSL There are also multiple volunteer opportunities suggested in the fall semester that students can participate in to receive credit for their hours.
Spring Semester
All members: 8 Hours due May 2, 2025
Students cannot use outside volunteer opportunities for spring semester hours. Spring hours should consist of volunteering to better our school and or our community. Students should work to plan their own projects or opportunities for service hours this semester. We will provide volunteer opportunities but it would be more meaningful if students were more engaged in service opportunities through NHS. Students can also plan a volunteer opportunities with their friends or club group. Have a service project idea, then propose it to the NHS officers.
National Honor Society
The National Honor Society was founded in 1921 by a group of principles that felt there should be a way to honor academic achievement while also develop citizens that had qualities essential to democracy. These characteristics of scholarship, service, leadership and character
are a fundamental part of NHS.
A membership in NHS is a promise to honor these characteristics while also helping our local committees.
