Highland High School: 2023 National Honor Society Induction
On October 25, 2023, the Highland chapter of the National Honor Society inducted 63 new members. Our keynote speaker, Mrs. Mary Jackson, is a long-time member of the HCUSD 5 staff, and was chosen by the executive board of the NHS because students value her knowledge and motivation.
Members must be juniors or seniors, must have a G.P.A of at least 4.75 on the 5.0 scale, must be active at school and in the community, and must show a commitment to serving others. In all, there are about 100 members in the chapter.
To continue their membership, students must exhibit good character and must maintain a GPA of 4.75. Students also complete a minimum number of service hours each school year, which includes volunteering for the Special Olympics and with the HACSM food pantry.
