The George Ranch High School chapter of the National Honor Society is a select group of students who have prioritized the organization’s four pillars in their lives during high school including service, scholarship, leadership, and character. The purpose of NHS is to develop students into productive members of society by encouraging them to see beyond themselves and engage in their school and community through positive, character-building interactions.
Members are expected to seek excellence in all areas of their life and serve as role models for their student body. As such, members are required to maintain a 104 GPA on a 100 point scale (this is the official weighted GPA calculated by our registrar when determining class rank), participate in at least ONE NHS sponsored group service project each semester, devote a minimum of 12 individual service hours EACH semester to the organization(s) of their choice, participate in at least ONE fundraiser per year, pay yearly dues, and maintain impeccable discipline and character at all times.
Invitations to join NHS are delivered to eligible GRHS students with a minimum of a 104 GPA and a clean discipline record during the spring semester of their sophomore or junior year. Applications will be reviewed for evidence of excellence in a student’s service, leadership, school involvement, and ability to articulate their understanding of the four pillars. Once applications are reviewed, students exhibiting the highest standards will be invited to join NHS. As our NHS students are looked upon as role models for the student body, failure to uphold the four pillars of the organization will result in probation and/or dismissal.
