Every ELA Honor Society chapter has the power to make a lasting impact! Plan a dynamic series of activities throughout this semester that inspire creativity, foster collaboration, and strengthen connections within your school and local community—all while celebrating the beauty of the English Language Arts.
Showcase Your Chapter’s Brilliance!
Each semester, Chapter Leaders and student members have the exciting opportunity to document their impactful activities through reports, photos, and/or videos and submit them to the Chapter Showcase program. Outstanding submissions will shine on the ELA Honor Society website, receive a $50 grant to fuel future activities, and earn a prestigious certificate for their school to proudly display.
Every submission is automatically entered into the running for the Chapter Showcase Award. The winning chapter will take home a stunning trophy and an official certificate, serving as a lasting reminder of their excellence.
Make a Difference in Your Community
Membership in the ELA Honor Society goes beyond academic achievement—it is a call to leadership and social responsibility. Chapters are encouraged to launch meaningful, literacy-focused projects that support their schools and communities. From book drives to reading programs, the possibilities to inspire change are endless!
Consider your school your community: Within your school, you might host a lively book club, organize a themed lunch, or invite a renowned author to speak. Decorate bulletin boards with inspiring quotes, or stage an unforgettable play that showcases your chapter’s talent.
Step outside the classroom to explore even more opportunities—attend a play, participate in a book festival, or visit iconic literary landmarks. Arrange tours of local universities, libraries, or community theaters to spark curiosity and broaden horizons. With so many options, your chapter can ensure activities inspire every member!
Your Chapter, Your Project
Every activity you plan is a chance to make a lasting impact. Let your chapter’s creativity and dedication shine brightly this semester. The world is waiting to see what your ELA Honor Society chapter can achieve—start planning today!
