They joined current members, bottom from left, Adviser Miss Westphal, Secretary Hope, President Hunter, Parliamentarian/Historian Nicole, Treasurer Ethan and Vice President Delaney.
 
In order to be selected as a member of the North Central Chapter of NHS, students need to portray the four pillars of NHS: Character, Scholarship, Leadership and Service. Juniors and Seniors need to maintain a 3.3 GPA, while early admission sophomores require a 3.5 GPA. All students who are eligible solely based on GPA are given an application packet. After the packets are turned in, a faculty council of five teachers meets to vote on students for membership and schedule interviews for candidates as well. Seventeen students applied for the honor, with 9 students chosen for membership this year.
