Elevate Your Students With NJHS

The National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) strives to develop a culture of inclusion, service, and achievement while removing barriers to student success—goals that closely align with your own as an educator. And while NJHS membership is the true mark of academic achievement for your highest-achieving students, it is so much more than an honor roll. An NJHS chapter brings with it exclusive tools and resources for your students that not only help them in their endeavors as NJHS members, but leave a lasting impact on them as active citizens with long-term aspirations.

NJHS Outstanding Achievement Award

Because it’s never too early to start planning for higher education, NJHS presents this award to 500 middle level members annually. Each recipient is recognized with a $500 award placed in a college savings account program-managed by Oppenheimer Funds (OFI Private Investments) as part of the New Mexico Education Trust Board’s 529 college savings plan: The Education Plan.

Service Mindset and Action

Individual, chapter, and schoolwide service projects are what NJHS students are known for. That’s why members get unlimited access to service planning templates and resources, including nearly 10,000 project ideas in the National Student Project Database. This creates a “give back” mindset and weaves continued service into the everyday of a learning community.

College and Career Readiness Webinar Series

Live and on-demand webinars on the college admission planning process give student members and their parents access to valuable advice directly from admissions experts, allowing them to get a jump-start on next steps in their academic journey.
