INDUCTION OF NEW MEMBERS

Honor Society Membership

Membership in the National Honor Society is one of the highest honors that can be earned by a high

school student. It carries a responsibility to continue and promote the qualities of Character,

Scholarship, Leadership, and Service. The keystone of the emblem bears the letters C, S, L, and S,

which stand for these principles. The torch symbolizes the searching for light or truth. The

Society’s motto, “Noblesse Oblige”, signifies that those of high rank have the obligation to behave

honorably, generously, and responsibly to others.
