of the WCHS community, you are probably a candidate for NHS.
| If you focus your activities only on school and not also on your church
and community, then you are probably not a candidate for NHS.
| If you focus your energies on your church and community, but not on your
school, then you are probably not a candidate for NHS.
| Are you known for pointing out problems and being proactive in bringing
about solutions? If so, you are probably a candidate for NHS.

complaining about them, but not moving to make a difference? Then you are
probably not a candidate for NHS.
| Do those who know you speak well of you regarding your work habits, your
service and your character? If so, you are probably a candidate for NHS.
| Are you the kind of person who your parents and teachers know as one
person but your friends know as someone else? If so, you are probably not a
candidate for NHS. | |
| Has your high school career been marked by character, leadership and
service? Your student activity and information form will provide the basis
for this evaluation.
| Have you left a positive impression with those who have been your teachers
over the last four years? A list of candidates will be circulated among
administrators, and teachers, asking if they would
consider each to be a fitting candidate for National Honor Society | Do your peers recognize your character, leadership
and service? You will be interviewed by current members of the National
