Quotes from the President:

“Cedar Park High School’s National Honor Society is the best way for students to interact with the surrounding Cedar Park area. We offer connections with local organizations, non-profits, and more global scale activities that encourage students to branch out of their comfort zone and interact with new service opportunity experiences. While the application and hour requirements may be rigorous, the experiences students have in NHS set them on a successful path for the future,” senior Kendyl Morris said.
