National Achievers Society (NAS), is an academic honor society recognizing the achievements of youth of color from throughout Long Island. Annually, NAS accepts applications from Long Island youth in grades 3 to 12. In order to receive induction into the National Achievers Society, applicants must:
- Make all As & Bs in school
- Be involved in school or community service
- Obtain two letters of recommendation
- Submit an essay on “Why Achievement Matters”
The NAS reduces the negative peer pressure associated with academic achievement and makes “doing the right thing” cool again.
