Why NHS?
Listening to kids makes us stronger.
Whether your school’s student leadership is flourishing, emerging, or somewhere in-between, NHS is for you.
The NHS program empowers and equips your students with the knowledge and skills to be transformative leaders in your school, community, and beyond. In addition, it provides a necessary bridge between students and school leaders—helping you to engage and hear what students think, feel, and need.
With an active NHS chapter membership, your school and students have access to:
- LEAD Conferences
Designed to help good student leaders become exceptional, LEAD Conferences provide NSC, NHS, and NJHS members national-level leadership training. Students will return with new ideas, skills, and energy to affect positive change in their school and community. - NHS Scholarship
Each year, NASSP awards more than $2 million to NHS senior members who have demonstrated a commitment to the four pillars of NHS. The top 25 scholarship recipients and their advisers receive an all-expense paid trip to Washington, D.C. - College and Career Readiness Series
Live webinars on the college admission planning process give student members and their parents access to valuable advice directly from admissions experts.
