Students must demonstrate scholarship, service, character, and leadership.
What is the application process?
Students who are eligible to apply for NHS will be notified via mail and email with the steps to apply. The application consists of a transcript, hours of service and leadership already completed, and an essay.
Applications are reviewed by an anonymous committee of staff members. There are no requirements for the number of students who can participate in NHS, so if the committee feels a student is has demonstrated the four traits and is ready to participate in NHS, the student will be invited to join.

Juniors must have 40 hours of service to continue their NHS membership.
Seniors must have 50 hours of service to earn a cord for graduation.
What do students do once they become an NHS member?
