The National Honor Society (NHS) is one of the most well-known and respected student organizations in American high schools, with more than 1.4 million members. Its mission is to recognize students who demonstrate excellence in scholarship, leadership, service, and character. NHS also encourages academic achievement, inspires students to serve their communities, and helps develop strong leadership skills and positive personal values.
The National Honor Society is built upon four main pillars; all members of the National Honor Society are expected to exemplify the following.
Scholarship — Commitment to academic growth.
