Constution & By Laws

Local chapters of the Honor Society are governed by two sets of documents: The National Constitution and the local chapter bylaws. The National Constitution was developed and is monitored by the National Council that serves as the governing body of the national organizations. All chapters must adopt and abide by the provisions of the National Constitution, per their chartering agreement with the national organization.

National Constitution:

The current version of the NHS Constitution was approved for all chapters on May 2, 2008 by the NASSP Board of Directors. This is the most recent edition for use by chapters. Changes have also been approved for the NJHS Constitution. 

Local Chapter By Laws:

The George M. Dare's local By Laws were revised and approved by the Faculty Council, Advisers and Administration of Bordentown Regional School District in September of 2016.  Subsequent changes and updates are made annually in September.
