What is National Honor Society?

The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students.  More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of Scholarship, Leadership, Service and Character. 

In order to be approved for membership into the Beta Omega Chapter of the National Honor Society at Manasquan High School, qualified juniors and seniors must have a cumulative grade point average of 93 or higher and are notified of their eligibility in fall of that year.  Once eligible, students are required to attend a mandatory meeting where further steps to induction are covered. 

Throughout the year, NHS members serve as peer tutors, raise funds for charities, undertake special projects in the school and community, and host the Senior Academic Awards Program.  Members must maintain a grade point average of 93 in order to remain in good standing and participate in scheduled activities, including monthly service hours and meetings.
