Spanish Honor Society
La Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica (SHH) is an honor society for high school students enrolled in Spanish and Portuguese and is sponsored by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP). It was formally organized as the Spanish National Honor Society in 1953. The name was changed in 1959 to SHH. There are over 1,700 national and international chapters.
The purpose of the society is to recognize high achievement of high school students in the Spanish and Portuguese languages and to promote a continuing interest in Hispanic and Portuguese studies. Students who are nominated by their Spanish teachers to enter into the society will have to complete an application for induction.
During the 2018-19 school year, the SHH meets the second Monday of every month at 2:15 in room 2013. Additional meetings will be announced as needed and will take place at the same time and in the same location as regular meetings unless otherwise noted.
