Eligibility Requirement |
L'Anse Creuse High School NHS members must be Juniors or Seniors with a 3.5 grade point average on new weighted GPA system.
Also, prior to acceptance into the NHS, Juniors must have completed 20 hours of the required community service for graduation. NHS members must perform additional community service hours above and beyond the 40 hours required for graduation. The requirement is 10 hours per year of membership. In order to maintain membership in the NHS, members must participate in additional hours of NHS community service activity above and beyond the graduation requirement of 40 hours, attend meetings, help with fundraising, and maintain good citizenship (including following the LCPS code of conduct) and the required GPA.

Meetings |
NHS meetings are held usually after school on the third Thursday of each month. They provide opportunities to share information and to get involved with community service projects. Students who have a conflicting obligation and must miss a meeting are responsible for making up that time. Those students will be required to complete an extra 1/2 hour of community service for every meeting that they miss.

Graduation Awards!
There are 2 types of NHS graduation awards for eligible members:
NHS Stole - this is earned if a member maintains a GPA of 3.5 or higher and has completed a minimum of 20 hours of NHS community service. (Stole picture on the right) LCHS Honor Cord - this is earned ONLY if a member has earned an NHS Stole plus completed an additional 10 hours of NHS community service. In other words, members in good standing who complete at least 30 hours of NHS community service will receive this additional recognition. |
