Thank you for visiting the online home of the Hamilton Township High School National Honor Society. Here you will find details on what it takes to become a member of this exclusive student organization.
Eligibility
To be academically eligible for consideration for membership in the Hamilton Township High School National Honor Society a student must be a sophomore or junior and must meet or exceed a cumulative GPA of 3.250 on a 4.000 scale.
This is the first step in the selection procedures. In late February/early March, the eligible student will be asked to submit additional information (by a deadline at the end of March) for consideration by the chapter’s Faculty Council, which will carefully review his or her credentials.
In addition to the Scholarship standard, membership in NHS is also based on standards of Leadership, Service, and Character. To be selected as a member of NHS, the student must demonstrate on his or her Candidate Form and through the evaluations submitted by the faculty that he or she has met or exceeded these additional standards.
Selection
If a student is selected to be a member of National Honor Society he or she will be notified during the Tap Ceremony at school in April during advisory period. Following notification at the Tap Ceremony, there will be an evening ceremony in early May for these students and their parents.
If you have any questions regarding NHS or the selection process, you can contact Mrs. Heaton at [email protected].
