High academic standing, positive student leader, great example to younger students, fine school involvement - these are just a few of the qualities that a member of the Underwood National Honor Society must possess.
The question is ofter asked, "What prevents a student from becoming a member of the National Honor Society?" That question is better answered with listing the measureable qualities:
1) Accumulate and maintain a 3.50 grade point average
2) Participate in numerous school activities
3) Have minimal discipline reports
Along with those qualities, there are also assets that are much more difficult to measure. Such as: positive attitude, fine reputation, positive conduct in the classroom, a person who doesn't complain and takes a healthy stance on any and all issues.
There is no question that becoming a member of the National Honor Society is a very high honor, reserved for the very best. Students need to ask themselves, "Do I want to be a member of the NHS?" If the answer is 'yes', the next question needs to be, "Am I doing everything I need to do to reach that goal?"
