National Junior Honor Society

Welcome to the Prairie View Middle School Honor Society!

National Junior Honor Society is modeled on five areas for students to follow. Below, the five parts of NJHS are explained for Prairie View Middle School Students.

Scholarship: Student who have a cumulative grade point average of 3.80 (or higher), meet the scholarship requirement for membership. These students are then eligible for consideration on a basis of service, leadership, character and citizenship. Students are invited to be considered for membership after third quarter grades are posted in their seventh grade academic year.

Service: This quality is defined through the voluntary contributions made by a student to the school or community, done without compensation and with a positive, courteous, and enthusiastic spirit.

Leadership: Student leaders are those who are resourceful, good problem solvers, promoters of school activities, idea-contributors, dependable and persons who exemplify positive attitudes about life. Leadership experiences can be drawn from school or community activities while working with or for others.

Character: The student of good character upholds principles or morality and ethics, is cooperative, demonstrates high standards of honesty and reliability, shows courtesy, concern, and respect for others. Students with school suspensions will not be considered for membership.

Citizenship: The student who demonstrates citizenship understands the importance of civic involvement, has a high regard for freedom, justice and democracy, and demonstrates mature participation and responsibility through involvement in community organizations and school clubs.
