NASSP Community Guidelines

Welcome to the NASSP Online Community 

This platform is designed exclusively for NASSP members and advisers from schools participating in our Student Programs. Our guidelines aim to foster a professional, collegiate, and cordial environment where members can share ideas, resources, and engage in meaningful conversations. 

Eligible Members 

  • NASSP Members (School Leaders / Principals) 

  • Advisers from National Honor Society member schools 

  • Advisers from National Junior Honor Society member schools 

  • Advisers from National Elementary Honor Society member schools 

  • Advisers from National Student Council member schools 

 

These guidelines are intended to promote a professional atmosphere. NASSP reserves the right to remove individuals who do not adhere to the spirit or culture of collaboration. 

 

Community Etiquette 
 

The success of the NASSP Online Community depends on member participation.  Always communicate with others as you would in person, and keep the following in mind: 

 

  1. Respect Different Perspectives: Acknowledge that others may have different viewpoints, styles, and experiences. Provide constructive feedback and avoid offensive, defamatory, hateful, or abusive language. Do not harass or spam other members. 

  1. Positive Contributions: Share content that reflects your opinion and experience, especially if it will benefit other members. 

  1. No Solicitation: Do not sell, solicit, or advertise personal services/products. 

  1. Stay On-Topic: Ensure discussions are relevant to professional topics and the platform’s purpose. Avoid irrelevant content. 

  1. Share Wisely: Information shared on the platform is accessible to everyone in your group. Only share what you want everyone to know. 

  1. Report Violations: Report any content or actions that violate community guidelines. NASSP reserves the right to delete content and adjust user privileges as necessary.
