have been associated with membership in the organization since 1929.
Requirements: Students in grades 6-9 who participate in the NJHS must have a
3.5+ GPA, complete an application, and demonstrate excellence in Scholarship,
Service, Leadership, and Character. Students in the society must also participate
in two NJHS community service activities with a minimum of four hours of service
time.
Schedule: Candidates will be informed of their status in December and inducted
in January. The society will meet every month to conduct meetings and schedule
service projects.
Fees: $30.00 (Members will also have the option to purchase an NJHS
shirt/sweater designed by chapter leadership)
