National Honor Society  (NHS)

The National Honor Society is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to recognize those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921. Today, it is estimated that more than one million students participate in NHS activities.

Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments but challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service.  Four main purposes have guided chapters of NHS from the beginning: to create enthusiasm for scholarship; to stimulate a desire to render service; to promote leadership, and to develop character in the students of secondary schools.

Sage Oak students in grades 10th - 12th are invited by their Educational Advisors to recognize students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of academics (unweighted 3.0 GPA or higher), leadership, service, and character.
