2015-2016 Rules

Established Rules
Requirements:

  1. Every member must have a minimum weighted GPA of 3.5 (AP and Honors extra point counts toward GPA) 
  2. All general members must have at least 25 hours completed (1st and 2nd Semester). Seniors must complete their reduced 12.5 hour requirement (2nd Semester.) Lastly, half or less of your requirement hours can be outside hours.
  3. All new members must have at least 10 hours completed. (1st semester) All new members will be considered general members during 2nd semester of this school year.
  4. All general members must attend at least 3 meetings before semester 1 ends. NHS will conduct 3 more meetings in the 1st semester (10/23, 11/6, 12/4). The meeting requirement for new members is 2 meetings.  (You are exempt from meetings if you have a valid excuse. E.g. Peer counseling or other Friday cabinet meetings. Be sure to notify Secretary Calvin Phung.)
  5. At the end of each semester, every member must re-apply. Members must fill out the designated form for that particular semester (Ask Secretary for help) and must staple a copy of their recent semester's report card. 

Services:

  1. If a member (who is also volunteering)  drives a minimum of 3 NHS volunteers to an event, the driver will earn an extra hour. (No parent/guardian/non-member can help a member earn the extra hour.) 
  2. You may sign up or omit yourself from an event before the deadline date stated on every post. 
  3. If you are signed up and fail to show up, you will be deducted 1 hour.
  4. You must arrive to the service on time and stay until the the service ends. (In case of an emergency, you must notify the attending officer/leader before leaving.) 
  5. Everyone must sign in and sign out of every service. No record of your presence will result in a deduction an hour. 
  6. No double-dipping. If you are signed up with NHS and another club for the same service, and you attempt to gain hours for both, you will face further ramifications. 
  7. Outside hours from previous semester shall not be included in the current semester's hours
Face Probation:
  1. One fails to meet all the requirements (That means all hours, meeting, and GPA requirements) 
  2. One earns a D or an F on final semester report card
  3. One earns a U as a citizenship grade on final semester report card 
  4. One attends a service and sneaks out of the service early without notifying an officer 
If one is placed on probation at least once, one will be ineligible for a stole and and unqualified to run for NHS cabinet. There is no way to repeal a member's probation. 

Advantages:
  1. A 6 (consecutive) semester NHS member who is never placed on probation will earn a graduation stole. 
  2. National Honors Society is a nationally well-known organization. Be proud that you are helping the community and strengthening your abilities as you encounter more favorable chances to benefit  the world.
