The MISSION
The primary mission of the National Honor Society for
Dance Arts (NHSDA) is to promote and honor outstanding dance achievement and to
encourage well-rounded dance artists to become leaders in their communities
after high school graduation.
The
National Honor Society for Dance Arts (NHSDA) serves to identify those honor
students of junior and senior high school age for nomination to the National
Dance Education Organization’s (NDEO) Artistic Merit, Leadership and Academic
Achievement Award, the highest dance award in the nation.
ELIGIBILITY for membership
Student membership in the NHSDA is awarded on the basis
of points earned for meritorious work in dance that meet the honor society’s
general guidelines and, when appropriate, on the basis of dance class grade
point average. In addition, the
prospective member’s demonstration of collaborative teamwork, motivation, and
participation in the many aspects of dance (choreography, performance,
teaching, production, etc.) is a factor in the determination of eligibility for
membership.
All junior and senior high school age
students inducted into a NHSDA Student Chapter are eligible for nomination, by
the Chapter Sponsor, to receive the NDEO Artistic Merit, Leadership, and
Academic Achievement Award.
