Greetings!

The Midland Chapter of the National Honor Society of Midland Senior High School will hold an induction ceremony Tuesday, November 15th. Student attendance at the ceremony is a requirement for membership. Parents are cordially invited to attend the ceremony which will be held in the auditorium at 7:00 pm with a PTA reception to follow.

 

Students will have an assigned seat in the auditorium and are asked to be in their seat by 6:30 p.m. Tuesday night. On Monday, November 14th, we will have a practice run-through during 3rd period for students invited to join.

 

Letters were mailed out the week of October 31st to all students* eligible for induction. Applications were distributed through junior English classes on Monday, Nov 4th. Applications and $10.00 induction dues are to be turned in to Mr. Rangel in room 216 on or before Friday, November 11th. Any eligible student who cannot attend the ceremony on the 15th due to extenuating circumstances will need to notify Mr. Rangel in writing by Friday, Nov 11th (there will be an alternative procedure for induction). Appropriate student attire for the induction ceremony is semi-formal.

There is a difference between being an "Honor Grad" and being a member of the NHS. During commencement, Honor Grads are recognized with a cord, while NHS members are recognized with a cord and a stole. Honor Grads are those that graduate with a 4.5 GPA on the 6.0 scale. Active NHS members graduate with a 4.5 GPA in addition to meeting the requirements for membership based on Service, Leadership and Character.
