National Honor Society

National Honor Society
The National Honor Society was established by the National Association for Secondary School Principals (NASSP) in 1921. The principals involved aimed to create an organization that would recognize and encourage academic achievement while also developing other characteristics essential to citizens in a democracy. These ideals of scholarship, service, leadership, and character remain as relevant today as they were in 1921. As WTHS prepares future leaders for global citizenship, the opportunity to support these ideals becomes even more important.
