5. NHS Service
The Ponte Vedra High School NHS will be completing two whole society service projects this year. One in the Fall Semester and one in the Spring Semester. Both projects are mandatory for NHS members to maintain society membership. For NEW members, they will only be expected to serve in the Spring project. In addition, NHS members must fulfill minimum 2 hours of service per semester through the Ocean Palms Elementary School D.E.N. program or the new induction committee. NEW members are expected to fulfill 2 hours of O.P.E. service only in the Spring semester. This involves tutoring, reading, playing games, and mentoring younger students.
