The Deerfield High School Honor Society was established in 2007 to recognize students’ achievements in scholarship, leadership and service. Students who have achieved an unweighted GPA of 3.33 through their 5th semester AND who have been cleared by the DHS Deans will be invited to apply. Every applicant is required (1) to submit an Application for Admission form, which includes a list of extracurricular (and community service) participation and (2) to ask for and receive a Confirmation of Character from FIVE members of the DHS Faculty. Links to the Application for Admission form and the explanation of how to ask teachers to confirm character will be emailed to eligible students. An FAQ document with other important details is here on the Honor Society page (under the “Activities” tab) on the DHS website.
