The National Honor Society was established in 1921 by the Association of Secondary School Principals. Its goals were to create enthusiasm for sch90larship, to stimulate the desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in students.

Membership in local chapters is an honor bestowed upon a student. Selection for membership is by a faculty selection committee consisting of representatives from both the academic and career areas.

Students with a cumulative grade point average of 85% and above, since the ninth grade, completed an application and obtained letters of recommendation. The applications listed and described their involvement in school, community and the workplace. The letters attested to the' student's character. The faculty selection committee then selected students to be inducted as members of the Clay E. Givler Chapter of the National Honor Society. Their membership has been earned by the effective demonstration of the four qualities held in high esteem by the society - Scholarship, Service, Character and Leadership.

The purpose of this page is to support the York County School of Technology Chapter of the National Honor Society. The Chapter was established in 1985. It was named after the first principal of the school - Mr. Clay E. Givler. There are currently 10 student members in this organization.
