What sorts of activities do you get to do in National Honors Society?

Yo, I’m thinking about joining the National Honors Society at my school but kind of want to get a sense of what I’m signing up for. What kinds of stuff do members actually do? Is it all just community service or are there other projects and events?

Hey there! Joining the National Honor Society (NHS) is a fantastic way to engage in a variety of activities. While community service is a big part of NHS, the experience includes much more. Members often participate in leadership activities, scholarship events, and sometimes, fundraising projects for local charities or school initiatives. NHS chapters typically hold regular meetings where members can plan and execute different projects that benefit the school and community. For instance, our local chapter recently organized a tutoring program to assist underclassmen with their studies, as well as a successful canned food drive. Each NHS chapter has its own set of unique offerings based on what the members and school community value, so you'll definitely have a chance to shape and partake in diverse events. It's also an excellent addition to your college applications!
