Société Honoraire de Français

Motto of the SHF:
« Avoir une autre langue, c’est posséder une deuxième âme »

Are you trying to order SHF graduation regalia (e.g.: stoles, cords, etc.), or other SHF Merchandise?    Please click on the AATF-Boutique tab above.
The establishment of a chapter of the Société Honoraire de Français offers several benefits to a secondary French program.   It provides an opportunity to recognize outstanding scholarship in the study of French, to place a special seal on the graduate’s diploma, to wear a tri-colored cord or a stole at graduation, and to wear the honor society’s official regalia.

The local high school chapter provides a vehicle to focus activities around French language and Francophone literatures and cultures, and to encourage participation in the annual writing contest and travel grant competition.  In addition, students can acquire leadership skills by serving as officers, directing the initiation ceremony, or leading other chapter events.
