BASHA HIGH SCHOOL - Chandler Unified School District



PERRY HIGH SCHOOL

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY

2020

National Honor Society is proud to include students who maintain standards of excellence in the areas of scholarship, citizenship, leadership, service to community and school, and character.

Students seeking membership need to demonstrate strengths in the above-mentioned areas as well as have a 3.8 cumulative grade point average. As a student with at least a 3.8 cumulative grade point average, you have met the minimum requirements in one of the areas. Therefore, you are receiving an invitation for the selection process of National Honor Society.

In order to become a member, you must follow the process below:

Complete the NHS Application Packet. This packet can be found on the PHS website tab “Programs” and “National Honor Society” then “Future Members.” We highly recommend you download and type your application. Any clubs, sports or activities need to list the sponsor or coach’s name (in case the selection committee needs to verify your participation in the activity). Each coach or sponsor must provide a signature and a phone number for contact purposes. If no signature is possible, indicate why on the application form.

Once you have turned in your application packet, your name will be added to a list of candidates applying for membership. This list will be reviewed by all Perry faculty who will offer feedback concerning your character. You will not contact teachers for a recommendation.

An invitation to become a member does not guarantee selection to National Honor Society. A candidate must follow the process and be selected by the committee.

Applications are due by 3:00 to Mrs. Tonnemacher in C302 on Friday, February 28th, 2020.

*LATE FORMS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR MEMBERSHIP***

Thank you for your interest in National Honor Society. Good Luck!!!

Sincerely,

The Selection Committee, Mrs. Rowe, Mrs. Tonnemacher, & Mrs. Cooper - NHS Advisors
