The Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica (Hispanic Honor Society) is an honor society for high school students enrolled in Spanish and/or Portuguese, sponsored by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP).
It is a nationally recognized honor society.
We focus on promoting Hispanic Culture and Community Outreach activities. The SHH was formally organized as the Spanish National Honor Society in 1953. The name was changed to Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica in 1959. At present there are over 3,500 national and international chapters of the SHH.
The mission of the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica is to recognize high school achievement in Spanish and Portuguese and to promote interest in Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian studies. To join at Satellite High School, students have to be in Spanish 3 Honors or higher and have at least an honor grade of a 3.5 GPA in their Spanish courses. The SHH is an honor society for those students of high academic achievement.
For graduation, students in SHH will receive cords to wear for the ceremony.
