National Junior Honor Society Highlights:

 

2023/24 National Junior Honor Society

 

The application process for the National Junior Honor Society for the 2024-2025 school year is officially open. 

Your students are eligible to apply and have the opportunity to be admitted to the Lutz Preparatory Chapter as long as they meet the following criteria:

  • Students must be in the 7th or 8th
  • Minimum of a 3.75 grade point average or no more than 1 “B” from each quarter of the 2023-2024 school year (or four B’s total for all four quarters)
  • 0 Behavioral Infractions – includes: lunch detention, detention, in-school suspension, out-of-school suspension
  • Completed Application

If your student is interested in applying, please have them pick up an application from Ms. Murphy in room 401 in the MOD.

All applications must be turned in (via hard copy) to Ms. Murphy by Monday, September 16th.  Applications that are incomplete or turned in after the deadline will not be accepted.

If admitted into this prestigious organization an induction invitation will be sent out.  At that time a fee of $75 (yearly) will also be collected.  Please wait to turn in the fee, until your student has received their invitation to the chapter.

If your student is an 8th grader who was admitted into the chapter last year and ended the year in good standing, your child does NOT need to reapply.  You can tell if your student ended in good standing if they were added to the NJHS 2024-2025 canvas page.

However, the yearly fee of $75 is still needed.  This fee covers ceremonies, celebrations, our subscription renewal and t-shirts!

We hope to admit as many new members as possible and hope that every 7th and 8th grader who meets the above criteria applies!
