The National Honor Society is the leader among organizations that promote recognition of students who reflect our outstanding accomplishments in scholarship, character, leadership and service. This organization sponsors thousands of chapters across the nation and St. Peter’s is proud to be a chartered member.

Membership in the society begins with the application process wherein the student supplies documentation of academic achievement, extracurricular activities and a record of service that demonstrates the willingness to use his talents and skills for the improvement of our school and the community to assume all of the responsibilities associated with membership.

Our students serve as administrative office assistants and as hosts and guides at Open House and all major school events. The members of the society assist our student body as peer tutors and also serve as teaching assistants for after-school programs at neighboring parochial schools. Society members also serve at St. Peter’s Church and sponsor various drives during the year that have offered material and monetary resources for Good Counsel Home for mothers and children located in Rosebank and sponsored a student at St. Mary’s School, Kenya — these are just a few of the society’s endeavors.

Membership is open to qualified Juniors and seniors who have a cumulative GPA of 92 or above with no grade below 80 and exhibit the virtues of scholarship, character, leadership and service. Accepted students must maintain first honors and commit to the Society’s responsibilities and service projects to remain in good standing. Applications are submitted during the third quarter of 10th and 11th grades for admissions review. Our induction ceremony is held in May. The National Honors Society meets weekly on Wednesday mornings at 7:50 a.m. in Room 202.
