Meetings
Next meeting: November 12, 2025 in the Lecture Hall, 3:15 - 4:30 PM.
Attendance at the meetings is a requirement for membership. If you cannot attend a meeting for school-related reasons (e.g. - a soccer game, not practice), contact Mr. Chamberlin at least one day before the meeting. Failure to inform Mr. Chamberlin about your absence prior to the meeting will result in an unexcused absence for that meeting. If you missing a meeting for any reason, you need to complete one additional service project that semester for every missed meeting.
Officers normally meet a week prior to the general assembly meeting.
Membership Requirements
Membership in NHS has its requirements:
1) Maintain at least a 3.6 overall GPA (weighted). If your GPA falls below 3.6 you will will be placed on NHS Probation and have one semester to bring is back up to 3.6 to remain in NHS.
2) Dues. The NHS officers and I are still deciding the best strategy for NHS Dues and T-shirts. Stay tuned . . . we will have more information on or before the November meeting.
3) Attend monthly meetings. If you need to be absent from a meeting (doctor appointment, sport game - not practice, etc.), contact Mr. Chamberlin (michael.chamberlin@d11.org) prior to the meeting. You will need to complete an additional service project for every missed meeting.
4) Service Projects - You need to complete at least two NHS-sponsored service projects each semester. If you want to complete a service project that's not a NHS-sponsored activity, contact Mr. Chamberlin (michael.chamberlin@d11.org) for approval.
You will need to take a selfie while participating in your service projects and post them to the media folder on the NHS Schoology Group. This is used to keep track of your service requirements, but also used for the annual scrapbook. Near the end of each semester, you will complete a form documenting your service projects.
GPA, meeting attendance, dues, and community service will be tracked and monitored.
