Student Activities and Clubs

It’s important to give students a chance to interact outside of the classroom and extracurricular activities and organizations are a great way to do that. Emmett O’Brien Technical High School has a wide range of options including everything from Student Council and National Honor Society to SkillsUSA.

Current Clubs and Activities

National Honor Society

The National Honor Society is an organization promoting recognition for students with outstanding accomplishments in the areas of scholarship, character, leadership and service.

Membership in the National Honor Society (NHS) is one of the highest honors that can be awarded to a high school student. The NHS has worked hard to bring the accomplishments of parents, teachers, peers and the community. Chapters in more than 12,500 high schools across the nation strive to give practical meaning to the Society’s goals of scholarship, leadership, service and character. These four ideals form the basis for selection to the NHS. No student is inducted simply because of a high academic average. The Society strives to recognize the total student: one who excels in all these areas.

The standards used for selection are:

  • Scholarship – 85 percent GPA or better cumulative average since attending high school.
  • Leadership, Community & School Service and Character – as demonstrated by activities and teacher evaluation.

Student Council

The Student Council is the organization through which the administration, faculty, staff and most importantly the student body cooperates in addressing the concerns and activities of the school. It is comprised of one shop representative from each grade executive officers. The reps meet once a month to discuss the affairs of the student body. The Student Council Executive Board governs and manages all student activities.

The Executive Board must approve each student activity program. All requests for fundraising, student activities and purchases made from the Student Activity Funds must be approved.
