ASL Honor Society

 
 
 
Since its inception in 2006, the American Sign Language Honor Society (ASLHS) has become a valued addition to the field of ASL education. Its primary mission is to encourage and recognize high academic achievement in ASL studies for high school and college/university students. Like honor societies for other languages, the ASLHS seeks to enrich the overall learning experience of those studying ASL. Some of the programs offered by the ASL Honor Society include:

Awarding honor cords and medals based on academic achievement

Encouraging students to use ASL within the local community through service learning

Hosting the annual ASL Literature competition, featuring cash prizes
Awarding competitive scholarships to students studying ASL in college

Supporting ASL teachers to obtain equipment and materials to improve ASL teaching on campus

Official Pledge of the American Sign Language Honor Society 
 
 
As a student of ASL, I understand that language can be a powerful 
connection between peoples of different cultures and backgrounds, 
bringing them together. Henceforth, I am proud to commit to being a 
steadfast ally of the Deaf community. I pledge to encourage Deaf and 
Hearing peoples to come together in unity throughout the world. Lastly, I 
will reflect the ideals of the American Sign Language Honor Society in 
scholarship, community service, and personal excellence.
