Is this "honor" honorless?

So under the “honors” section on CA, it says, “If you have received any honors related to your academic achievements beginning with the ninth grade or international equivalent, please indicate number of honors.”
I have put down National Honor Society and Sociedad Honoraria Hispanica, but other than that I only have awards from my school’s annual award ceremony. Are those school awards worth putting?

Here’s what I would put:
English II Honors Academic Achievement (10th)
Spanish III Honors Academic Achievement (10th)
Top 10 in Class (10th & 11th) - Thinking of not including this one because it might be redundant because I indicate that I’m in the top 10% of my class under the “grades” portion of CA

Also, for National Honor Society, I’ve been a member ever since I was inducted in 10th grade. Should I just mark off the year that I was inducted, or should I mark off 10th, 11th, and 12th because I was a member for all three years. Thanks!

yes, they are worth putting. And for the NHS, tick off all years necessary.

Yes!

My friend who is now in college told me to put NHS under the “Activities” section, because of the volunteer nature of it. Which one do you all think I should put it under?

@rm5678 well I’m putting it under “activities” because of the volunteer aspect AND because I’m NHS President. I’d imagine if it was solely an honor and required no further input you would just list it as an “honor;” however, it sounds like you do volunteer work with your NHS club just like me. I’m listing it under both “honors” and “activities.”
