NHS stands for National Honor Society, and recently sophomores were sent an e-mail if they held a 3.4 or above\u00a0GPA that they had been accepted\u00a0as a candidate for the program.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0NHS application is composed of three things, a letter from the applicant, a letter from an adult reference, and an activity sheet. The application board processes each one of the applications, what they are looking for students that have a well rounded life. They search for students who don\u2019t just do one thing. Doing well academically is important for the application, but so is being apart of the community at Dow High.<\/p>\n
“We look for students who have found ways to be apart of the school community,” Application Board chair member and teacher Mark Pickering said.<\/p>\n
Pickering’s main role in NHS is looking for possible candidates and processing applications. NHS might be a nice thing for college applications but it’s more than that.<\/p>\n
“It’s a service organization,\u00a0it’s an honor society, and it’s been Dow high’s tradition since the beginning of the school,” Pickering said.<\/p>\n
This opportunity is more than proof that you had a good GPA throughout high school, it’s states that you were willing to do the extra 10 percent and put in the work to help one’s\u00a0community. Ultimately if students are looking for a away to make\u00a0them\u00a0their best selves while also helping the people around them then NHS is a good choice for them.<\/p>\n
