The NHS Club of Chaparral High School is a duly chartered and affiliated chapter of the prestigious national organization. NHS elevates a school’s commitment to the values of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These four pillars have been associated with membership in the organization since its inception in 1921.
Today, it is estimated that more than one million students participate in NHS activities. NHS chapters are found in all 50 states, US Territories, Canada, and around the world. Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but also challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service.
For general information, see below the picture.
Chaparral High School's NHS application process takes place during the spring semester. At the end of January, invitations are sent to current sophomores and juniors who have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5 (unweighted) or higher. Students are selected for membership by majority vote of a five-member principal-appointed faculty council. Students must have 2 positions of leadership and 25 hours of community service, with 5 of the hours dedicated to Chaparral or its feeder schools.
