History of the National Honor Society
When the National Honor Society was established in 1921, the hope was to create an organization that would recognize and foster academic achievement while developing other characteristics essential to good citizenship and democracy. Scholarship, leadership, character, and service are ideals that remain as relevant today as they were in 1921. Now, more than 90 years later, the National Honor Society has established a reputation among administrators, faculty members, students, parents, and residents of the school community. This reputation is the result of years of commitment on the part of everyone involved. Membership is thus an honor and an obligation. Through their activities, the members of Greendale High School’s chapter of the National Honor Society have maintained and extended the qualities that garnered their selection.
Requirements for Membership at GHS
Students with at least a 3.5 cumulative grade point average after three semesters at Greendale High School are invited to learn more about membership in NHS. Those who are interested must submit an application and new members will be selected by a Faculty Council based on their leadership, character, and service. Along with maintaining high academic standards, NHS is a service organization. Each year, members must earn 50 hours of service through their school, church or community.
