NJHS Bulletin Board
Just outside room 212, on the science hallway, is a bulletin board. NJHS members should check the board every week to see what is going on in the club. This is a great link to meeting reminders and service opportunities.

Officer Meetings
All meetings begin at 8:00 am and are held in the library. They will precede the general meetings.
Membership Requirements
Membership is based on high academic achievement and teacher recommendations. The induction for new members is usually held in April
7th grade students who have a 90 or above average will receive a letter in February. They will need to fill out a Student Activity form and return it to Ms. Granier in room 218. Those students who meet the deadline for returning the activity letter will then move on to the next phase. In the second phase the teachers evaluate the student in the four areas: citizenship, service, leadership, and character.

Service Requirements
Members are required to complete a MINIMUM of three hours of service a month. This is an average so it is acceptable to get service hours in a lump (ten hours one month will cover a member for three months). Many members complete a large portion of their service during the summer, please feel free to do so. However, completion of the minimum is not an excuse for not continuing service throughout the year.

This past year, we went to the Houston Food Bank on two different occasions. While these trips did not give members enough hours for their total obligation, they were a fun way to complete a portion of the member's service for the year.
