The National Junior Honor Society (Grades 6–9) and National Honor Society (10–12) are national organizations that recognize students for outstanding academic achievement. Students looking to participate in either chapter go through an application process which includes a teacher evaluation based on criteria such as leadership and character. A 3.5+ GPA is also required for consideration. 

Both programs pride themselves on being built upon the Four Pillars (Scholarship, Service, Leadership, Character).

These Pillars are “transformative keys that unlock potential, enhancing every student’s educational journey, and ultimately empowering them to make profound, enduring contributions to our world” 

Here at Maranatha, we also believe that students who dedicate themselves to lifelong learning, have a passion for helping others, live to inspire those around them, and  practice compassion should be highlighted.
