DULLES SNHS
Point Opportunities
Points: The point requirements must be met to be considered for induction. After the Fall Semester, if you have remaining points to be completed, they will carry over to the Spring Semester for twice that amount. If you have a surplus, you may transfer up to 2 points from the Fall Semester to the Spring Semester or use them for YES hours.
​
Demerits: If you fail to meet the mandatory requirements of the club, you will receive demerits. By the end of the Fall Semester, those who have more than 3 demerits will have to face an appeals committee to remain in the club. Seniors must have fewer than 3 demerits to be considered for a senior cord.
