2. The National Honor Society is the nation's organization established to recognize outstanding high school and middle school students. More than just an honor roll in most schools, NHS serves to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of Scholarship, Leadership, Service, Citizenship and Character.

6. Please take a moment to look at some of the amazing projects completed by your NHS members by going to http://www.leaders4earth.org/ and clicking on “Student Work.”

7. This Wednesday is Veterans Day in the U.S. and Remembrance Day in Canada. As part of Honor Society Week, the NHS students would like to join the school in celebrating veterans all over the world. Tuesday, students in grades 7-12 are invited to join NHS in celebrating and remembering our veterans. Please participate in our MyLaurelSprings blog about Veteran’s Day by creating a poem or short story, or creating lyrics to a song, based on Veterans day. You might even have a personal experience with a veteran in your life that you wish to share. We look forward to reading what you have to say.
