National Honor Society

   
     National Honor Society is an organization that is the largest student recognizing group, giving students a brighter future, and preparing them for service, learning, and success. NHS has awarded more than $10 million dollars in scholarships to outstanding students, since 1946.
     To be inducted into National Honor Society you must have a GPA of at least 3.65, and must be voted in by the faculty of your school. Freshmen are not able to apply, and you must be in the second semester of your sophomore year to apply.  Juniors can apply all year round, but seniors are only eligible their first semester.
     Chadron High School teacher Mr. Willie Uhing is a sponsor, along with Mrs. Lorrie Bauer. Mr. Uhing says, "NHS honors holistically 'good kids.' They do not just look at grades but rather service, character, and leadership skills. One of the best things about National Honor Society is that it looks extremely good on resumes, and accentuates other activities in and out of school."
     Every year Chadron High has students apply and be accepted. There are currently 15 Chadron High students enrolled in NHS. Chadron High School's new induction ceremony will be held on November 10th at 7 PM in the auditorium.
