Just a heads up, the location we're decorating has changed since the last email (it is no longer the soup kitchen). 

We will meet outside Mrs. Zeigler's room (the outdoor side, not inside the hall) at 3 PM. There, we will arrange rides. Also, we need tape (masking tape) to hang the decorations with, so if you bring some for extra points too!

We will be making decorations to put up in the Alzheimer's Center!

This is a chance to earn 20 points in one week, so don't miss out!

T-Shirt Design Contest

Reminder: Deadline is Nov. 6th
We want another awesome shirt to represent NHS this year! The winner will receive 10 points
We'll vote for the design at our Nov. 7 meeting. 
Guidelines are as follows:

  • May be front and back
  • Include the words ‘National Honor Society’ or ‘NHS’
  • Include the words 'Fountain Valley High School' or 'FVHS'
  • Try to incorporate our Baron head, NHS logo (torch), and/or the four main pillars of our club CSLS (Character Scholarship Leadership Service)
  • If the design is hand-drawn, it must be converted to an electronic file format that can be sent to the t-shirt printer
Any graphics program is cool. Last year's winner was done entirely on Paint:
