The National Honor Society for Dance Arts is part of the National Dance Education Organization. Its mission is to recognize outstanding artistic merit, leadership and academic achievement, and to foster an appreciation for dance as a true art form. Its membership is open to exceptional dance students from throughout the country.

For 40 years, the National Technical Honor Society has recognized outstanding student achievement in career and technical education. Today, it serves more than one million members in secondary and postsecondary chapters across the country, in fulfillment of its mission to support the next generation of skilled workers and leaders. The National Technical Honor Society is founded on four core objectives: career development, leadership development, service and recognition.

For a century, the International Thespian Society has been honoring student achievement. Society’s four key principles are pride, affirmation, confidence and inspiration. As members, students receive national recognition, have access to a variety of resources, and are invited to participate in state and national events, workshops, and college and scholarship auditions. Among its legendary ranks are Kathy Bates , John Goodman , Tom Hanks , Goldie Hawn , Christina Hendricks , Barbara Hershey , Val Kilmer and Cloris Leachman , to name a few.

The Tri-M Music Honor Society was founded more than 85 years ago by the National Association for Music Education and, to this day, remains the only national Honor Society for music students. Its mission is to create future leaders in music education and advocacy. Candidates must meet a rigorous set of eligibility requirements in several categories including leadership, service, character and academic achievement.
