1. What is National Honor Society (NHS)?
NHS is a student organization that strives to recognize outstanding students, promote service and leadership, and develop the character of its members
2. What are the Four Pillars of NHS?
-Scholarship is more than a report card; it represents a dedicated commitment to lifelong learning.
-Service represents the choice of stepping outside oneself to meet the needs of others, fueled by an unwavering passion for a cause, heartfelt empathy for others, or driven by personal circumstances.
-Leadership is more than a position or title; it means embodying the spirit of initiative, innovation, and influence.
-Character is the essence of who we are. It is about valuing diversity, building relationships grounded in empathy, and exhibiting qualities like perseverance, respect, integrity, and honesty.
