National Honor Society
The eAchieve Chapter of the National Honor Society celebrates students for their commitment to and demonstration of the four pillars:
Scholarship - Scholarship is more than a report card; it represents a dedicated commitment to lifelong learning. It’s about optimizing the educational opportunities offered and pursuing knowledge within and beyond academic confines. Scholarship necessitates a consistent effort, with an aspiration to contribute positively to the world through one’s own knowledge, skills, and experiences.
Service - Service represents the choice of stepping outside oneself to meet the needs of others, fueled by an unwavering passion for a cause, heartfelt empathy for others, or driven by personal circumstances. It’s about performing selfless acts that transcend the ordinary, engendering transformative changes that resonate through our schools, ripple across our communities, and reverberate on a global scale. In the noble act of service, we sculpt a better world with our hands, our hearts, and our humanity.
Leadership - Leadership is more than a position or title; it means embodying the spirit of initiative, innovation, and influence. It’s about inspiring peers through actions, nurturing a collaborative environment, and championing positive change. Student leaders embrace the responsibility of shaping their academic community, all while fostering personal growth and development. It’s an interplay of intellect, empathy, and resilience, guiding others while continually learning and evolving.
Character - Character is the essence of who we are. It is about valuing diversity, building relationships grounded in empathy, and exhibiting qualities like perseverance, respect, integrity, and honesty. Character lies not in public acts of virtue or visible mistakes but in the consistent commitment to ethical and compassionate decision-making that positively affects both oneself and others.
Juniors are nominated and then apply for acceptance to the National Honor Society. If accepted, they will be inducted during our virtual NHS ceremony in June.
All NHS members create a collaborative service project during their senior year to benefit their local community or communities across Wisconsin, as they demonstrate the four pillars in action!
