For its exemplary record of leadership, service and efforts to improve the school and community, the Queensbury High School National Honor Society has been named a 2026 Chapter of Distinction.
The Chapter of Distinction Award celebrates chapters that embody what the National Honor Society stands for — students who don’t just excel academically but actively strengthen their communities.
“The NHS Chapter of Distinction Award recognizes the hard work, leadership and service of our students and their commitment to making a meaningful difference in our school and community,” said Kerry Rodriguez, Queensbury’s NHS advisor.
The Chapters of Distinction is a national recognition program created by the National Honor Society to honor chapters that demonstrate strong leadership, sound operations and a deep commitment to the pillars of the Honor Society. This distinction recognizes chapters that meet all Essential Standards and excel in key areas such as student governance and leadership development.
“The Queensbury High School chapter demonstrates how powerful it can be when young leaders channel their talents toward meaningful service and positive change,” said Ronn Nozoe, CEO of the National Principals Association.
