Dual Enrollment

Westside works in conjunction with UNO, Nebraska Wesleyan and Metro to offer dual credit classes.  In addition to successfully completing the classes at Westside, students do have to complete the "dual enrollment" applications during the application window (October-1st semester, February-2nd semester). Click the following link for more information. Dual Enrollment 

National Honor Society

Westside’s Honor Society is a chapter of the national organization and is bound by its rules and regulations. Juniors and seniors who have a mark point average of 6.40, eligible for induction into the Society. In addition, Juniors must have completed 60 hours and Seniors must have completed 80 hours of Service Learning. These requirements must be completed by the date required on the form (end of January). No exceptions will be made for this deadline. Selection further depends on consideration of character, leadership and service. Staff members are given National Honor Society definitions of character and leadership and are asked to give specific evidence of how any eligible student has not demonstrated these qualities. In the spring, students are asked to complete a Student Activity/Service Information Form and complete an essay on leadership. School activities/service and community service are recorded by the student and rated by the appropriate sponsor. A total of ten points on this form is required for induction. Seven of the ten points must come from activities at Westside High School. A faculty committee then reviews each student’s qualifications and recommends accordingly.
