Knight Valor is a Newport High School PTSA program designed to recognize students who have completed community service hours above and beyond the BSD requirement. For the Classes of 2024 and beyond, the requirement is 140 hours.

Seniors who have met the Knight Valor requirements receive a certificate, pin, and recognition in the graduation brochure.

All community service hours must recorded, submitted and approved in Naviance to count towards the Knight Valor requirement.  Community service hours must be approved by May 17, 2024 in order to be eligible for the Knight Valor award in 2024.  Guidelines for acceptable community service hours for Knight Valor are the same as those for the BSD graduation requirement.  Namely, the community service must be done for schools, non-profit agencies, and/or religious organizations.  (https://bsd405.org/nhs/counseling/community-service/).

There is no separate application process for Knight Valor awards.  We will simply look at the number of approved hours in Naviance to determine students who qualify for the award.

Students who do not wish to be recognized as a Knight Valor award recipient must send an email to [email protected].
