National Honor Society - Attention Parents/Guardians

We are pleased to share an update about the National Honor Society (NHS) at North Atlanta High School. To ensure our program continues to reflect the highest standards of excellence, we are refining our selection process and eligibility criteria. As part of this update, the induction ceremony has been rescheduled for next semester.

Moving forward, the updated requirements for NHS membership are as follows:

• Students must be juniors or seniors with a minimum unweighted GPA of 93 after the end of the first semester. Once grades are finalized in January, students may consult their counselor if they are unsure of their GPA.
• Students should maintain strong attendance with no excessive absences or class cuts.
• Students must have a positive discipline record with no major referrals during the school year (major referrals include those resulting in out-of-school suspension).
• Students must have been enrolled at NAHS for at least one full year.
• Students must have completed their MYP project.
• Students who meet all eligibility requirements will receive an NHS application via their APS email by the end of January 2026.

We appreciate your continued support as we strengthen our process to recognize the outstanding scholarship, leadership, service, and character of our students. Additional details regarding the induction ceremony will be shared next semester.

NAHS Parking Payment
Students Driving-  

• All student drivers (and visitors) should enter the garage via the entrance NORTH of the school (see yellow arrows.) They should NOT enter with Carpool and buses to attempt the U-turn into the Garage.  This entrance will require badge access.   
• A parking permit is required. 
• Students should park ONLY on levels 2 and above and not on the ramps.
• Upon leaving the Garage, follow the exit South to Northside Pkwy.
• Go slowly and follow all rules set forth in the NAHS parking contract.
• In case of traffic incident on campus, please report it to the front office so that a school resource officer can be called.

Carpool Drivers-

• Drop off begins at 8:00 am. DO NOT drop off students before that time due to Covid safety measures.
• Follow the blue arrows to the front of the Lakeside building.
• Form TWO lines; as you enter the portico, keep right toward the sidewalk/curb areas. Leave the left lanes open for parents who have already dropped off/picked up and PROCEED SLOWLY WITH CAUTION to exit the carpool area.
• No cell phone use please.
• Students should not exit cars until they have reached the front door. This will reduce any lines of students which would ensure better Covid safety.
• Do not park under the portico or along the curb if entering the school for any reason at any time. These are FIRE and EMERGENCY lanes and must be kept clear.
