Junior Parents

For parents of juniors: the Bishop Dwyer chapter of the National Honor Society invites eligible new members to join every year, typically after Fall Break. Eligible students are in their junior year of school and have a weighted GPA at or above 3.55. These students will be notified directly by the adviser of the chapter. If your student receives an invitation in the mail to join the National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS) please be aware that this is not the same organization and your child will receive a separate invitation to the National Honor Society directly through Bishop Manogue. For any questions please contact the chapter adviser Sarah Haeberlin-Cope at sarah.haeberlin-cope@bishopmqnogue.org.
