The National Honor Society is the front runner of organizations and societies that promote appropriate recognition for students who reflect outstanding accomplishments in the areas of academics, character, leadership, and service. Thousands of schools are chartered and their chapters are following the Constitution.

College admissions officers often look for Honor Society membership as a valid indicator that the applicant will succeed at the collegiate level of post-secondary education. The Honor Society member has already proven that he or she is able to achieve with academic endeavors, leadership - either overtly or silently - honorable and admirable character, as well as service that demonstrates that the member is willing to use talents and skills for the improvement of society.

Serving one another and the community is expressed in the motto of the National Honor Society, "Noblesse Oblige." Members of the National Honor Society are obligated to fulfill the motto with behavior that is honorable, responsible, and generous to others. The Honor Society chapter provides individual members the opportunity to share their talents with other students, their school, and their community.
