What is the National Junior Honor Society?

 

Exemplary academic achievement at Colony Middle School will qualify you to apply to become a member of the National Junior Honor Society.  Membership in NJHS is one of the highest honors that can be awarded to a student.  Our chapter strives to give practical meaning to the Society's standards of scholarship, leadership, service, citizenship, and character.

​

These five ideals will be considered as the basis for your selection as well as a fundamental part of our chapter activities.  No student is inducted simply because of high academic average.  The National Junior Honor Society strives to recognize the total student--one who excels in all of these areas.

​

If you are chosen to be inducted into the Colony Middle School Chapter of the NJHS, you will be expected to:

​

• Maintain a GPA of at least 3.5

• Participate in all mandatory NJHS meetings

• Complete 10 hours of individual community service per quarter

• Pay an annual due of $10.00

• Participate in the NJHS Chapter community service project

• Demonstrate leadership, good citizenship, and character at Colony Middle School and in the community.

​

If you have any questions about the obligations of being an NJHS member or about the application process, please see the NJHS advisor, Mr. Anderton.
