Sincere, Meaningful, and Fun Community!

Our subject area clubs and honor societies provide academically dedicated students with an opportunity to develop leadership skills and service skills (as would be found in traditional high school honor societies). By participating in planning and executing events and service projects, students can earn points. Ultimately these points and academic achievement provide membership and induction into the subject area honor society. (See below.)

Our teachers minister to these students by guiding them and helping them to offer interesting, fun, and meaningful programming for the club itself and the student body at large.

Club membership is open to high school students taking any of the courses listed below.

We encourage our students to join, participate, and work towards honor society induction although there is no requirement that a student must eventually be inducted. We welcome all students who wish to participate!

Subject Area Club Membership is open to high school students taking any of the courses listed below who are willing, eager, and committed to participate.

There is no initial charge to register for the club on our website, but the club fee of $50 will be billed by the club sponsor after registration.

Honor Society membership is open to students who have met the requirements below.

Applications will open in December with induction taking place in March/April of each year.

Have taken at least three full-year courses (third year progress acceptable) in the subject area (acceptable classes listed below) with an A average
