Eligibility Requirements
Students in grades 10–­­12 who meet the requirements for membership outlined by their school’s chapter are eligible to be invited for membership.

Each chapter is required to publish its qualifications for membership, which is based on the four pillars of NHS:
  • Scholarship Per national guidelines, at a minimum, students must have a cumulative GPA of 85, B, 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, or equivalent standard of excellence. (Each school chapter is allowed to require a higher cumulative GPA.)
  • Service This involves voluntary contributions made by a student to the school or community, done without compensation.
  • Leadership Student leaders are those who are resourceful, good problem solvers, and idea contributors. Leadership experiences can be drawn from school or community activities while working with or for others.
  • Character The student of good character is cooperative; demonstrates high standards of honesty and reliability; shows courtesy, concern, and respect for others; and generally, maintains a clean disciplinary record.

Students who meet the scholarship requirement will have an opportunity to complete a form detailing their accomplishments in and commitment to service, leadership, and character.

​Understanding the Obligations of Membership
Students who accept membership and are inducted into the chapter should be aware of the time and commitment involved with this honor. For example, there will be chapter meetings. The chapter bylaws should articulate the yearly meeting schedule and member attendance obligations. Members also must participate in chapter and individual service projects to benefit the school and community. Contact the chapter adviser to obtain a full list of the obligations of membership for the school’s chapter.

Bravery Buddies Project (Jan 1, 2026 - May 1, 2026)

Our NHS chapter is launching a new service project to support emergency responders and the children they serve. We are collecting items and monetary donations to create "Bravery Baskets"—special kits that first responders across the state can give to children during traumatic events.

​Your generosity can provide a much-needed distraction and a sense of safety for a child in a scary situation. Check out the flyer on the following page to see our "wish list" and learn how you can contribute!
  • Purchase items and have them sent directly to us: Amazon List
  • Give dollars and we will purchase what we need: Donation Link
  • Check back on this page to watch our progress: ​glconnectionsacademy.org/nhs
