Membership in the CYHS chapter of the National Honor Society is open to juniors and seniors who are academically eligible. In addition to scholarship, all applicants must demonstrate all of the other standards of the National Honor Society, including leadership, service, and character.
Membership in NHS is a privilege. All four standards have equal weight in determining whether or not a student becomes a member. Induction takes place in the fall semester. All members are expected to continue to exhibit the four standards of the National Honor Society in order to maintain membership.
Regular NHS meetings are held in the auditorium on the first and third Wednesdays of the month. Meetings start promptly at 7:15 am. Make-up meetings for those who cannot attend a regular meeting are held in room 605 on the Monday following the regular meetings (or the next available school day). Make-up meetings begin promptly at 2:01 (start of Flex). Late arrival to either the regular or make-up meeting will count as an absence.
There are four meetings every month in order to allow members some flexibility in attending meetings. Members who have college classes are still obligated to attend 2 meetings each month. If they have morning classes, members may leave the meetings at 7:30, which will allow enough time to get to York College or PSU York.
More information, including policies on missed meetings and weather delays, can be found in the Bylaws.
