NEHS

The National Elementary Honor Society (NEHS) was established in 2008 by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) in partnership with the National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP). NEHS recognizes elementary students for their outstanding academic achievement, responsibility, leadership, and service. Through NEHS, students engage in meaningful projects that benefit both the school and the community while developing essential leadership skills.

 

At Chamlian, 6th Grade students with a GPA of 3.5 or higher and in good disciplinary standing are eligible to apply for NEHS membership. Applicants must also demonstrate good character, citizenship, leadership, and service. Accepted members attend regular meetings and participate in service projects throughout the year.The opportunity to apply is open to students who meet the eligibility criteria above. The Chamlian NEHS Faculty Council will review applications based on the information submitted, their personal knowledge of the student, and input from other teachers.

 

Application submissions begin Monday, October 27. Interested students should carefully review the NEHS bylaws and complete the application provided. All applicants must submit the completed application along with a personal statement by Tuesday, November 5th, at 4:00PM. Hard copies should be turned in to Ms. Ana Sirabionian in the school library. Upon acceptance, members will be required to pay a one-time $20 fee, which will be charged to their tuition account.

 

Applications should be completed thoughtfully, as they play an important role in the selection process. Incomplete or late applications will not be considered. Once members are selected, an induction ceremony will be held (details to be announced). Following the ceremony, NEHS members will determine their meeting schedule and begin planning service projects that support the school and the broader community.
