Ruth Suttle Chapter of the National Honor Society:

The NHS constitution provides eligibility for sophomores, juniors, and seniors (10th, 11th, and 12th grades). However, local chapters may decide to limit eligibility to one or a combination of these grade levels in its bylaws. Freshmen (9th grade) are not eligible for NHS membership. Wharton High School students are eligible for membership in the 11th and 12th grades.

To be eligible a student must have a GPA of at least 3.5, have attended Wharton High School the full previous semester, and be a 3rd year student classified as a junior or a 4th year student classified as a senior.
