National
Honor Society (NHS) is an organization devoted to acknowledging high
school students who have excelled in four characteristics during their
high school years. These four characteristics are Leadership, Service,
Character, and Scholarship. NHS members make every effort to work for the
betterment of their community.
Every
high school that is part of NHS has its own set of rules and standards
that are laid down by its advisors. In addition, each state that has
schools that are part of NHS has a state board and state advisors. The job
of the state advisors is to make sure that each school follows the
national charter of the National Honor Society.
Any
student who is a candidate for the Lexington High School Chapter of NHS
must have attained a unweighted GPA of 3.33 in their sophomore or junior
year. Secondly, they must exhibit outstanding leadership qualities,
character, and service during their years in high school.
Once
the student has become a member, they must retain their GPA and attend all
NHS meetings as well as complete a service requirement during the school
year.
