| What is the
National Honor Society?
The
National Honor Society is an organization that was developed to
acknowledge high school students who have exemplified themselves in
four characteristics : Character, Service, Leadership, and
Scholarship. Unlike an ordinary honor roll, NHS is a national
organization that promotes academic excellence and service to one's
community and high school.
Each
state that is part of NHS has its own advisers and a state executive
board that will plan any state-wide service activities and the
annual state conference. Also, each participating high school has
its own elected board which plans school service
activities.
The Central High School Chapter
of the NHS currently has 92 members, all of whom are held to the
highest standard of academic merit and social responsibility.
Throughout the year, we participate in many community service
projects such as the annual Elementary School Halloween Party, the
Animal Shelter's Dog Walk, and the Tri-City's Kitchen's lunch
program. |
