NHS is chartered by the National Association of Secondary School Principals for the purpose of recognizing and encouraging students who show a rare combination of outstanding scholarship, integrity of character, leadership and service. Students are given an opportunity to express in writing why they are qualified for membership and why they want to be a member. Nominees may not have more than 6 (six) detentions in a given year. Selection is then made by a seven-member faculty council and is based on the recommendation of the entire faculty with final approval given by the principal. There are approximately 100 members each year, and the cost is $10 for dues plus approximately $125 for students who choose to attend the three-day state conference at Jekyll Island. Students volunteer for the August book sale, Thanksgiving Food Drive, Induction, State Convention, book return, tutoring program, mini-class night, among other events.  At graduation, seniors wear a gold NHS cowl signifying their accomplishments and membership in the Society.

Members must attend all meetings, participate in all activities, maintain the GPA required for admission, pay dues, and maintain good character by obtaining no more than 6 detentions to remain in the National Honor Society.
