National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service and character. Our chapter of the NHS at Lake Catholic requires that members take on additional responsibilities of leadership and service, as explained below.
Requirements
You must meet these requirements in order to apply for NHS membership:
- You have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher.
- You have completed 40 service hours and submitted them to Campus Ministry by March 15 of the current school year.
- You have a good disciplinary record at Lake Catholic (no suspensions).
Responsibilities of Members
Once you are accepted into the NHS, you must fulfill the following responsibilities in order to maintain your membership in the NHS:
- Attend monthly meetings.
- Maintain a good disciplinary record.
- Maintain a 3.5 GPA or above.
Failure to fulfill these responsibilities will render you ineligible to continue your membership in the NHS for the following school year. Seniors who do not fulfill these requirements will not wear the NHS stole at graduation.
Application process
Applications are open in March for interested sophomores and juniors.
