National Honor Society

The 2008 National Honor Society induction is at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 3.

NHS BLOOD DRIVE! The National Honor Society's Walther blood drive (operated by LifeSource) recorded 79 students, teachers and parents who came to donate blood. A lifesaving 65 pints were collected with the potential to save 195 people in need of blood.  Thanks to all for this gift of time and very personal resource for life and health.
2008 - THANKS FOR SHARING LOVE WITH SICK CHILDREN!
	Walther's 2008 National Honor Society "Baskets of Love" project was a great success, with 123 baskets delivered to six different pediatric wards in the Chicago area.  Many children will have a little extra joy as they struggle toward health.  Thanks to all Bronco fans, friends, families, students and staff for your generous contributions to support this outreach.

There are three steps considered for a student to be induction into the National Honor Society at Walther Lutheran High School.

1. The student must hold a 3.75 cumulative grade point average at the end of their 3rd, 5th, or 7th semester.
2. Once it is determined that a student meets the criteria mentioned in #1 (above), faculty approval is sought. Faculty members receive the names of all students under consideration for induction. Teachers and administrators consider the four characteristics of NHS, Scholarship, Leadership, Character and Service to determine if the student should be accepted, or rejected for membership. A two-third majority vote is the determination. Faculty members may abstain from the process on any student they feel they do not know well enough.)
3. Finally, the students who have met both of the above criteria will be asked to submit a letter of recommendation from an adult (non-family member) who can speak to their leadership qualities. Suggested individuals include pastor, former teacher, employer, volunteer organizer, youth director, neighbor, mentor, etc. This letter must be submitted by the announced deadline.
   

   Please join us to congratulate the 2008 inductees into Walther's National Honor Society on Thursday, April 3, at 7 p.m. in the multipurpose room. Refreshments will follow the ceremony.
