Alternate Faculty Council Members?
Submitted by Jeannee Yakel on Wed, 05/13/2009 - 08:58.
Three members of our NHS are going before the Faculty Council regarding an incident that took place on a school sponsored field trip to Europe that is resulting in the students being considered for removal. Two of the five teachers on the faculty advisory board were chaperones on the trip. One of the parents thought that they might be biased in the appeal. Are there other ways to handle this? Can we find new Faculty Council Members?
Are there any middle schools out there that do dodgeball tournaments?

State Conference Transportation
Submitted by Michelle Foster on Thu, 02/19/2009 - 18:37.
We are looking for a school to share a charter bus to the state conference. We're south of Detroit, so we'd be happy to stop and pick up a school along the way!

NHS/NJHS Selection Using "Point Systems"
Submitted by admin on Tue, 02/10/2009 - 11:29.
Our school uses a point system where the cutoff is 60 out of 84 for membership. We have a few students who scored within a couple points of the cut-off. Can we induct them on a probationary status where they are aware of the areas in which they need to demonstrate improvement in by a given deadline, or would they either have to be selected or not selected.
Is anyone willing to share transportation to States?
Submitted by Emily Dressler on Mon, 01/05/2009 - 12:32.
Since State Conference is over Spring Break I am not able to take my kids to States. I am working on getting another volunteer from the school to chaperone the kids, but was wondering if anyone from the southern flint/northern metro detroit area might want to share transportation?
We usually charter a bus but I only have eight kids.

Is your school "green"?
Submitted by non member on Mon, 09/15/2008 - 14:13.
We are seeking to host an information and training workshop for administrators, staff and students, that focuses on how you can go "green" at your school. Ideally, we would love to use this as an opportunity to showcase a green school in Michigan and hold the conference right at your school. If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact Kadi at MASSP:
We would like to hold the conference in November or December, during the week.

Can any groups submit any interview questions you use when selecting officers or an executive board?
Submitted by tmccain on Thu, 03/20/2008 - 12:01.
Part of our process for us determining our e-board is an interview. We have students we've interview previously so we're searching for some other questions we can ask.

Does your district/school allow your honor society to take field trips during "normal school hours"?
Submitted by kjp on Fri, 01/25/2008 - 14:03.
We would like to take our chapter to Cedar Point during the school day but our district says it's not educational so we cannot go.
