The National Honor Society (NHS) 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.

NHS membership is an honor and a responsibility. NHS members are counted on to lead, serve, promote learning, and achieve in our school and our community.
