To qualify for the National Honor Society at Goshen High School, students must demonstrate a cumulative, weighted grade point average of 3.75 on a 4.0 scale. Additionally, candidates are evaluated based on their service, character, and leadership qualities by teachers, culminating in a final selection made by a faculty committee moderated by the NHS sponsor.
Membership in the National Honor Society carries prestigious honors, including the wearing of a white NHS stole at graduation and a special designation on diplomas. Members are also required to complete two hours of volunteer service per month and actively participate in the chapter’s monthly service projects.
