NHS Selection Process
For Current Juniors:
Each junior student who has 3.300 or above cumulative GPA, as determined by the registrar, will receive a candidate form for membership in the National Honor Society (NHS). Students must have been in attendance at College Station High School for at least one full semester to be eligible. Students will be notified of their eligibility and be given access to candidate forms in the fall. Acceptance into the National Honor Society is by invitation. In addition to scholarship, students must have demonstrated evidence of leadership, service, and outstanding character in high school.
On the candidate form, students will describe their accomplishments, positions of leadership, and service through community organizations and school activities. They may include sports, band, choir, and other extra-curricular and co-curricular activities. Students will not have an opportunity to revise their candidate forms after they have been submitted.
College Station High School faculty members who have taught qualified students or worked with them in clubs or other extra-curricular activities will also have the opportunity to comment on their observations regarding each candidate's character as demonstrated by his or her academic integrity, compliance with school and district rules, and treatment of others.
Candidate Forms may be turned in early. Students must meet all deadlines. No exceptions will be made except for catastrophic events (i.e. death in the family, unscheduled surgery, etc.).
Once students have submitted a candidate form, the NHS Faculty Council will evaluate each candidate's leadership, service and character according to a predetermined scoring rubric. The NHS Faculty Council will not see student names as it evaluates the forms.
Accepted students will be notified in early January and will be required to participate in the induction ceremony.
As members of the National Honor Society, students agree to continue to excel in their service and leadership roles at the school, maintain their cooperative relationships with faculty and staff, and attend NHS meetings regularly as well as completing the chapter’s service hour requirements.
Juniors who are not accepted into NHS will be invited to submit a candidate form again their Senior year provided they maintain a GPA of 3.3 or above.
Candidate Forms for the 2023-2024 school year are due no later than 4:00 PM on Thursday, December 14, 2023.
