Welcome to the official website for the Sachem East Chapter of the National Honor Society.  

The members of the NHS are made up of the juniors and seniors that exemplify scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Our chapter is driven to succeed in impacting and bettering the community around us! 

Prospective candidates will be notified in March of their sophomore or junior year. At this time they will be required to complete an application verifying that they are involved in a minimum of 2 school-based activities (other honor societies do not count) as well as must provide documentation that they have completed a minimum of 30 hours of on-going community service during the current school year (July - application deadline in March).

Community service should be through a non-profit organization or facility such as a hospital, church, or retirement home.  It should be something that directly benefits either (1) people experiencing poverty, discrimination, abuse, poor health, old age, and or physical/mental limitations or (2) the protection of animals or the environment for which an individual does not receive financial compensation.
