11 HONOR SOCIETIES James. M. Bennett High School students have several opportunities to participate in nationally recognized Honor Societies. Honor Societies National Honor Society Membership is an honor bestowed upon a student at an induction ceremony. Selection for membership is by a faculty council and is based on outstanding scholarship, character, leadership, and service. Once selected, members have the responsibility to continue to demonstrate these qualities. Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors (registered in Wicomico County Public Schools for a minimum of one semester) with a cumulative, unweighted GPA of 3.4 at the end of the first semester are academically eligible for consideration. Students who meet the academic criterion will be informed and asked to submit evidence of Service, Leadership, and Character that is then considered by the faculty council. A majority vote-of approval by the faculty council earns a student an invitation to join the National Honor Society. A National Honor Society member who transfers to another school and brings a letter from the former principal or chapter advisor shall be accepted automatically as a member in the new school's chapter. Transfer members must meet the new chapter's standards within one semester in order to retain membership.
