German National Honor Society

The German National Honor Society serves to honor students for excellence in high school study of German. To be selected as a junior, a student must have completed eleven quarters of German in Watertown with a straight A average. They must also have a 3.0 overall GPA and the recommendation of the German teachers. For selection of seniors, the above requirements apply, except that a student may have two B grades among the 15 quarters which are considered.  The selection of juniors and seniors (German I, II, and IV students) is made in the final quarter of each school year and announced in the Awards Assembly program.

National Honor Society

The National Honor Society was established 66 years ago to promote and emphasize scholarship leadership, character and service. The intent is to recognize and foster academic excellence while developing the other characteristics so essential to citizenship in a democracy. Academic achievement needs to be the forefront of any educational system, not to be overshadowed by other activities. The National Honor Society is an organization that recognizes those who strive for academic excellence. The criteria for membership includes: a grade point average of 3.65 or higher; enrollment in two honors level classes; demonstration of good character; participation in community service; involvement in at least two extracurricular activities; and demonstration of leadership.

Advisor: Scott Shephard
