National Honor Society

Request a NHS Tutor

GRACE students may request a NHS tutor using the Request a GRACE Tutor Form. Your tutoring needs will be matched with an available NHS student by the officers of the GRACE chapter.

National Honor Society Eligibility

At GRACE Christian School, rising juniors, and seniors will be assessed for National Honor Society (NHS) eligibility at the beginning of August. An overview of the eligibility requirements includes: 

• Must be selected as a candidate by GRACE's faculty based on their service, leadership, and character.
• Must have a weighted minimum cumulative GPA of 3.7
• Must have demonstrated commitment to community service, with all required community service hours up to date as of July 31

After being notified of eligibility, a student may submit the candidate application to be considered for induction.

To learn more about the GRACE Chapter of the NHS, please read the GRACE National Honor Society Chapter Bylaws. This document includes more details about NHS eligibility and ongoing requirements and includes important dates and deadlines. 

In addition to maintaining the standards that earn membership, NHS members attend chapter meetings; perform service projects that benefit their school and communities; and fulfill other responsibilities as required by GRACE Christian School including the following:

Chapter Community Service Project

At GRACE, we have created the tutoring program to meet the NHS requirement for all chapters to have a community service. Tutoring requirements for GRACE's NHS students include:

• a minimum of 10 hours/year
• must be with a GRACE student (to specifically impact this community)
• tutoring a sibling is only permitted if sibling's teacher has signed the Sibling Tutoring Confirmation Form

Students must log all hours on the NHS Tutoring Form and have a supervising adult sign-off that they witnessed the tutoring being completed.

Individual service hours

In addition to the chapter service hours, NHS students will need their individual service hours to include: 

• a minimum of 10 hours/year of community service of their choice

  • This is in addition to the 20 hours required by all GRACE students to graduate.

Students must log all completed hours on NHS Individual Service Form and submit it to their NHS adviser by the due date.

Students who consistently fulfill all of these requirements will be allowed to wear the NHS cords at GRACE Christian School’s graduation ceremony.
