Membership in the National Honor Society is
based on a student’s performance in the areas of scholarship, service,
leadership, and character. In order to
be eligible, students must first have a grade point average of at least 3.2 and
have made significant contributions to their school and community, as well as
maintain a strong moral character. NHS
members are pictured above in the Rossville City Park for the annual “Get Down
and Get Dirty” Keep America Beautiful project in which they cleaned and weeded
the park and other areas of the city.
