The Nathan Hale chapter of the National Honor Society at Huntington High School is in the midst of its member selection process. The organization is now accepting applications from nearly 130 juniors and another dozen seniors that didn’t file during an earlier period.
Juniors and seniors who have met the academic requirements have been contacted and invited to apply. The deadline for submitting completed forms is October 23 at 4 p.m. Candidates will be notified of the results of the selection committee no later than November 20.
The purpose of the National Honor Society, a community service organization, is to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership and to develop character in the students of secondary schools.
The four areas of scholarship, service, leadership and character are the four criteria upon which the selection of an individual is based. All candidates with the academic qualifications for membership have been sent an invitation to apply. Applications must be accessed and returned through Google Slides.
The application process for invited seniors begins with a candidate accessing and completing the membership selection packet found on the candidate Google Classroom page (invitation only). Late applications will not be accepted.
Following submission of application materials, faculty members are given the opportunity to provide information relative to an applicant’s character, leadership, and service. The information is collected and presented to the Faculty Council Membership Selection Committee.
