About

"The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation's premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginnings in 1921."

To become a member

Candidacy for Manor's chapter of the National Honor Society is open to junior and senior students who have achieved a 3.5 weighted GPA. In the spring of their sophomore or junior year, candidates meeting the GPA requirement will receive a membership application with a deadline for submission. After this date, all submitted forms will be reviewed by an anonymous faculty committee which will decide which candidates will be offered membership and inducted. NHS seeks out members who represent our four pillars: scholarship, service, leadership and character, so keep in mind that this is what the membership form will consist of and what the committee will be looking for. All candidates will be notified of the state of their acceptance before the end of April. Those offered membership to NHS will be inducted in mid-March.

Note: NJHS membership from middle school does not transfer to NHS membership in high school and will have no impact on the application process or the state of acceptance. However, NHS membership from another high school's chapter that a student may have previously attended can be transferred to the Manor High School's NHS chapter, pending sponsor approval.
