Goals

Membership in the National Honor Society (NHS) & National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) is one of the highest honors that can be awarded to a middle school and high school student. Our chapter EXCELSIOR of Cap Cana Heritage School has worked hard to bring the accomplishments of outstanding students to the attention of parents, teachers, peers, and the community. 

 

The purpose of this chapter shall be to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in students of CAP CANA HERITAGE SCHOOL.

 

Our chapter strives to give practical meaning to the Society’s standards of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These four ideals are considered as the basis for selection. No student is inducted simply because of a high academic average. The National Honor Society & National Junior Honor Society strives to recognize the total student—one who excels in all of these areas. Membership, however, is more than an honor. It is an ongoing responsibility and an obligation to continue to demonstrate those outstanding qualities that result in a student’s selection. Membership also carries a responsibility to the chapter. If our NHS & NJHS chapter is to be effective and meaningful, each member must become involved.
