De Soto High School's National Honor Society Chapter Wins National Award

For its exemplary record of leadership, service and efforts to improve the school and community, the National Honor Society awarded De Soto High School the Chapter of Distinction award. DHS NHS is supported by its parent organization, the National Principals Association (NPA), which also oversees the National Association of Student Councils. DHS NHS works throughout the year to provide support throughout our community and school. During the 2025-2026 school year, DHS NHS completed 1092 service hours as an organization, including several service projects such as NHS Buddies, Operation Christmas Child, Adopt a Family, canned food drives, and Veterans baskets. This year, our organization has already completed over 200 service hours and has several service projects underway.

"The NHS Chapter of Distinction Award celebrates chapters that truly embody what the National Honor Society stands for—students who don't just excel academically but actively strengthen their communities," said NPA CEO Ronn Nozoe. "The De Soto High School chapter demonstrates how powerful it can be when young leaders channel their talents toward meaningful service and positive change."

The NHS Chapters of Distinction is a national recognition program created by NHS to honor chapters that demonstrate strong leadership, sound operations and a deep commitment to the pillars of the Honor Society. This distinction recognizes chapters that meet all Essential Standards and excel in key areas such as student governance and leadership development.
